Public Facilities Planning

Edited by Lily Kiminami (), Kenneth Button and Peter Nijkamp

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This important book brings together a careful selection of the major works in planning which relate to the provision of public facilities – such as recreation grounds, parks and sports arenas. The opening sections present classic, theoretic papers that lay both the general and the specific foundations for why some facilities are treated outside of the market. Key topics such as institutional issues, the role of the private sector, and the assessment and evaluation of public facilities planning and financing are then examined. Finally, the volume looks at some of the more novel approaches that are emerging in the provision of public facilities, and concludes with a selection of case studies that demonstrate the application of a set of planning approaches.
