THE STATES' ROLE IN LAND USE POLICY

Alvin H. Mushkatel and Dennis R. Judd

Review of Policy Research, 1981, vol. 1, issue 2, 263-274

Abstract: Historically, land use had been an exclusively local function. By the early 1960s, a “quiet revolution” broke the local government monopoly over zoning and land use, with a larger state role. Those states which passed land use legislation soon were faced with substantial political opposition, especially from rural dwellers and developers. When Congress considered national land use legislation in the early 1970s. these same interests united in effective opposition.
