Abstract

The Rice Center for Community Design & Research in Houston, Texas, has undertaken to suggest alternatives to present methods of land acquisition and land use in order to: 1) lessen the ultimate financial burden on public agencies, and 2) increase the community benefits directly resulting from such projects.
