HANSEN, V. E. APPLICATION OF SUSTAINABILITY CRITERIA TO STELLA, MISSOURI-INTEGRATED PLANNING-PRELIMINARY SITE INFORMATION AND ELEMENTS OF THE MASTER PLAN. Presented at Brownfields 2006 Conference, Boston, MA, November 12 - 17, 2006.
Impact/Purpose:
To inform the public.
Description:
Sustainability in the context of a place is a set of responses to social, economic, and environmental criteria. Individually, these sets of criteria were addressed in prior presentations. This presentation illustrates the application of these three sets of criteria combined with community values/needs in a master plan for the town of Stella, Missouri. This master plan provides workshop participants with a planning/design concept for critical review and discussion, and to spur creative discussion about possible solutions not indicated on the plan. It also is intended to elicit discussion concerning which sustainability criteria may be more/less critical to the planning process and to illustrate some of the difficulties in their application to real projects.
