Both local governments & federal & state legislation have created growth-management policy concerns in local areas. One particular technique being evolved is development district zoning; another is the requirement that developers pay for added public facilities which will be needed; environmental impact statements are also often required. The choice of strategies is determined partly by the decisionmakers involved, different types preferring different strategies; ie, local officials who are dissatisfied with present strategies are most favorable to state & regional involvements. Implementation of development strategies is often a problem especially when local support has not been mobilized; local groups may take court action to block planning & regulation. W. H. Stoddard.
