PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT
The profession of planning and development guides the present and future growth of cities by striking a careful balance between residential, commercial, recreational, and institutional needs. A planner makes the best use of a community’s resources, works toward solving current community problems, and protects important physical and geographical landmarks, all while considering how the future needs of a city will fit in.
The process of planning usually begins with planners collecting and analyzing data about every aspect of a city. Important aspects of their study include issues such as traffic congestion; air, water, and soil pollution; ecological preservation; and infrastructure. Planners must analyze street and highway capacity, location and capacity of water and sewer lines, public schools, libraries, cultural sites, and so on.
