Evaluating the Effectiveness of Regulatory Growth Management Programs: An Analytic Framework

University of Arizona, Tucson

This article develops an analytic framework for evaluating the effectiveness of regulatory growth management programs. First, the literature review assembles a large body of recent research examining the evolution of growth management programs, the role of government institutions, and evidence of policies' effectiveness. Second, working from the findings of the literature review, the article inductively develops a conceptual model identifying the relationships between program implementation, land market processes, and land use outcomes. Finally, the conceptual model is used to derive a set of principles that may be used to inform future research.

Key Words: growth control • growth management • land policy evaluation • land use • urban sprawl
