Abstract

How can best practices in community planning be used to develop a more adaptive, innovative, and community focused local area planning approach? This research project serves to analyze best practices in community planning policy in Canada and the United States using an evaluative assessment framework and establish a general set of recommendations based upon the assessment and literature review using Calgary as the basis for comparison.
