Last year I reported on Planetizen’s Top Ten planning issues of 2005 and speculated on what the 2006 issues would be. I pegged one of the five issues that Planetizen just published as the top issues of 2006: the bursting of the housing bubble. Here’s the list:
- Property Rights: The Kelo vs. New London backlash
- Downtown Redevelopment and the problem of gentrification
- The Katrina Cottage and the promise of prefab housing
- The bursting of the housing bubble
and my own personal favorite:
- Green building going mainstream
It’s too early to predict the top planning issues of 2007 - I’ll attempt that later this year.
