REGULATION OF LANDS AND BUILDINGS:

USING OLD TOOLS TO ADDRESS THE CHALLENGES OF NEW CLIMATE CHANGE POLICY

This will be a course on land use regulation which will include platting, zoning, building permits, and other laws (mostly federal laws aimed at other than land use policy goals) as subjects. The course will include a significant section on the development process so that students might better understand the application of laws and policies to creating or renovating the built environment. This year, we will look at climate change policies at the governmental and private capital markets levels, and we will look also at the subject of if and how all the policy goals can be accomplished in a way that allows for affordability in the residential parts of the built environment. No textbook is used. The instructor provides the materials in pdf form.
