Talk:Functional zoning

Untitled

First, I will add to this article by adding citations to information that is not cited. --Amberscovil (talk) 00:11, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

Then, I will expand the definition, give concrete examples of functional zoning, and describe the history of functional zoning. --Amberscovil (talk) 00:11, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

Soon, I will add a reference list. --Amberscovil (talk) 00:11, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

COI Edit

I would like to add an alternative definition to Functional Zoning in addition to the one already there. The term is used and defined in the book, Metrocoalescence, a Zoning Paradigm for Vibrant Cities (2024) ISBN 979-8-218-97591-3 to describe a different concept. In the book, the term "functional" is used in its mathematical sense rather than to describe the use or "function" of uses in a zone. I have attempted to add a new definition twice as you can see in the editing history, but these attempts have been rejected. Please consider the text below as an additional definition of Functional Zoning:

Functional Zoning also refers to a zoning paradigm that regulates the rate of growth as a function of existing conditions. This approach to land use regulation recognizes the city as a complex, self-organizing system and creates a map that adapts as conditions on the ground change. Rather than establishing fixed limits on the maximum intensity of development and range of uses, Functional Zoning protects residents from drastic change, but allows by right projects that incrementally increase the intensity of development. This theory of Functional Zoning is laid out in Metrocoalescence, A Zoning Paradigm for Vibrant Cities (2024). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Skydermann (talk • contribs)
