2、ustainable place to live.”Smart growth focuses on building cities that embrace theEs of sustainabilityEconomically prosperous, socially Equitable, and EnvironmentallySustainable. This task is more important than ever because the world is rapidlyurbanizing. It is projected that by 2050, 66 percent of

4、 an urban planning theory that originated in 1990s as a means to curbcontinued urban sprawl and reduce the loss of farmland surrounding urban centers. Theten principles for smart growth are1 Mix land uses2 Take advantage of compact building design3 Create a range of housing opportunities and choices

5、4 Create walkable neighborhoods5 Foster distinctive, attractive communities with a strong sense of place6 Preserve open space, farmland, natural beauty, and critical environmental areas7 Strengthen and direct development towards existing communities8 Provide a variety of transportation choices9 Make

6、 development decisions predictable, fair, and cost effective10 Encourage community and stakeholder collaboration in development decisionsThese broad principles must be tailored to a communitys unique needs to be effective.Thus, any measure of success must incorporate the demographics, growth needs,

7、andgeographical conditions of a city as well as the goal to adhere to the three Es.2017 ICMProblem E: Sustainable Cities Needed! Tasks:The International City Management Group (ICM) needs your help implementing smartgrowth theories into city design around the world. Select two mid-sized cities (any c

8、itywith a population of between 100,000 and 500,000 persons), on two differentcontinents.1. Define a metric to measure the success of smart growth of a city. It shouldconsider the three Es of sustainability and/or the 10 principles of smart growth.2. Research the current growth plan of the selected

9、cities. Measure and discusshow the current growth plan of each city meets the smart growth principles. Howsuccessful are the current plans according to your metric?3. Using smart growth principles develop a growth plan for both cities over the nextfew decades. Support why you chose the components an

Also using your metric, rank the individual initiatives within your redesigned smartgrowth plan as the most potenti

Suppose the population of each city will increase by an additional 50% by 2050,explain in what way(s) your plan supports this level of growth?Your ICM submission should consist of a 1 page Summ
