Public Support for Local Comprehensive Planning Under Statewide Growth Management: Insights From Maine

Dennis E. Gale

Suzanne Hart

Maine's Growth Management law provides an opportunity to examine public attitudes about state-mandated local comprehensive planning. A survey revealed an overall favorable public reaction, but important differences appeared among some subgroups. It was apparent that some socioeconomic characteristics offered the best predictors of support for local comprehensive planning, although the literature is not consistent on this issue. Attitudes on related issues such as environmental spending and highway development were only weakly linked to those on comprehensive planning. The results suggest directions for public policy development in states considering passage of growth management laws.
