Planning/Public Health Chronology(from a planner’s perspective)
Planning/Public Health Chronology(from a planner’s perspective)
1850 - 1920s: The public health roots of planning
1920 – 1930s: Zoning and subdivision regulations emerge to deal with nuisance issues, property values, quality of life
1945 – present: Urban decentralization, vast changes in jobs/housing proximity, consumer preferences, wealth; (now) conventional development patterns become norm
1970 – 1985: State growth management movement
1990 – present: Major change in Federal transportation priorities ISTEA (1990); TEA-21 (1997); TEA 3 (2003 reauthorization)
1990 – present: Smart growth movement
1997 – present: Public health and planning renew their marriage vows

Barriers to Health and Physical Activity: Is Community Design Part of the
Problem?
Barriers to Health and Physical Activity: Is Community Design Part of the
Problem?• Separated land uses• Auto-dominated community design• Large lots• Impervious surfaces• Ignoring human scale • Prohibited connections between origins and
destinations

Public Health Profession Has Also Reached Some New Conclusions
Public Health Profession Has Also Reached Some New Conclusions
• Individual interventions have been only moderately successful
• It’s time to turn attention to environmental factors• Development patterns have altered the balance of
human behavior• The social costs of current development patterns are
greater than traffic congestion• Conventional suburbia may be neither “safe” or
“healthy”

APA’s Five Strategic Points of Intervention Where Planners Can Promote Change
APA’s Five Strategic Points of Intervention Where Planners Can Promote Change
1. Visioning and goal setting
2. Rethinking planning in all contexts
3. Local implementation tools
4. Site Design and Development
5. Siting Public Facilities and Capital Spending
![Page 11: Integrating Health into Planning and Community Design, Part II Building Healthier Communities Fundamentals and Strategies for Integrating Public Health.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/55150962550346c77d8b4748/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
1. Visioning and Goal Setting 1. Visioning and Goal Setting
• Begins with a discussion of shared values
• Results in a shared image of a community imagines most desired future
• Provides a broad context within which goals are set and plans are developed
• Majority of planning efforts now launched with a visioning exercise (reflective of more citizen participation)
