Item Combating urban sprawl : proposing an urban containment system for the Austin region(2019-05-08) Davila, Robert Abraham; Paterson, Robert G.This professional report aims to gather lessons from multiple references in order to draw implications for the Austin region and strategies in adopting growth management. Specifically, Urban Containment Systems will be evaluated throughout different parts of the country through a dissection of regional comprehensive plans. In addition, strategies from different Council of Governments in regards to growth management will be discussed. Containment isn’t regulated at the state or regional level. Although local approached in growth management have been implemented through ordinances and initiatives, it will be important to also acknowledge ways a bottom-up approach could be applied for the Austin region as a whole.
