  • Facilitating Institutional Reform in England: Reconciling City-regions and Community Planning for Efficiency Gains?
    European Planning Studies, 2011
    Co-Authors: Simon Pemberton, Greg Lloyd
    Abstract:

    Considerable debate has taken place in England around the concept of the city-region. While there is contestation over the terminologies and interpretations of city-regionalism, this paper considers the extent to which it can offer a more integrative set of arrangements for Community Planning practices in England. Community Planning is concerned with securing institutional efficiencies and sustainable development gains in the context of local service provision and integration. Attention is drawn to the extent to which the convergence of these two parallel processes may either exacerbate or ameliorate the institutional barriers to securing efficient and effective Community Planning. The paper argues that the effective translation of city-regionalism into practice is influenced by (i) variance in the territorial imaginaries/operational boundaries of local institutions and the impact on city-regional governance structures; (ii) the consistency of approach to city-regionalism that is evident within central go...

  • Devolution, Community Planning and Institutional Decongestion?
    Local Government Studies, 2008
    Co-Authors: Simon Pemberton, Greg Lloyd
    Abstract:

    Abstract Devolution in the UK has been in place for a decade. It was introduced in a differentiated manner with respect to executive, legislative and financial powers. It created opportunities for the devolved administrations to devise more appropriate governance arrangements to address their individual economic and social issues. In addressing inherited institutional and policy fragmentation and deficits, however, this has contributed to a ‘congested state’. As a consequence interest has turned to devising initiatives to serve as a policy and institutional ‘decongestant’. This paper examines what has taken place as the devolved administrations have attempted to develop their own agenda for change with respect to the introduction of ‘Community Planning’ (as a potential decongestant). It appears that whilst the agents and structures of relevance to Community Planning differ by the specificities of each devolved administration, in practice there has been a general lack of ‘decongesting’ to date. In turn, th...

  • Community Planning and Land Use Planning in Scotland: A Constructive Interface?
    Public Policy and Administration, 2007
    Co-Authors: Deborah Peel, Greg Lloyd
    Abstract:

    This article explores the ways in which the inherited fragmentation of public services and associated delivery arrangements are being addressed in Scotland. Specifically, the article considers the modernization of an established part of local governance — land use Planning, and a novel articulation of modernization through Community Planning. There are important differences between them, yet they share common interests in securing the integration of service. Through a synthesis of research evidence, emerging policy documentation and consultation responses, we address three questions. First, is the emphasis on integration in both land use Planning and Community Planning helping to address the fragmented state? Second, how are land use Planning and Community Planning adapting to local circumstances? Third, what is the nature of the relationship between these different attempts to plan for local communities? The article considers to what extent this turn to integration within and between land use Planning an...

  • Exploration and Practice of Community Planning in Guangzhou
    Journal of Social Work, 2009
    Co-Authors: Xie Hui
    Abstract:

    The topic of Community Planning is one of the major contents of urban Planning.Community is a basic unit that composes the whole city,and the development of Community directly affects the eco-nomic and social development of urban.As a result,when it comes to discuss about the issues of urban development,Community factors should be regarded as primary and significant.In this thesis,we have covered some discussions about the relationship between urban Planning and Community Planning and analyzed the basic principles concerning com-munity Planning.Then,we have introduced the characters of Community Planning in Guangzhou following three paths as macro,micro and middle views.

  • Video Learning in Community Planning
    Journal of Planning Education and Research, 2018
    Co-Authors: Carl Grodach
    Abstract:

    This article explores the use of video as an experiential learning tool in Planning education. We report on the design of a video learning assignment for undergraduate Community Planning students and the results of a pre- and postsurvey used to gauge the student learning experience. Results show that video-making can be an effective tool to inspire students to make connections between complex urban theory and Planning content and their everyday surroundings. This approach may be a useful support for future planners whose roles will involve Community engagement and developing scenarios for Community change.

  • Decision-making in HIV prevention Community Planning: an integrative review.
    Journal of community health, 2000
    Co-Authors: Ana P. Johnson-masotti, Steven D. Pinkerton, David R. Holtgrave, Ronald O. Valdiserri, Mary Willingham
    Abstract:

    Since 1994, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has required that the 65 health department grantees that receive funding for HIV prevention interventions engage in a Community Planning process to involve affected communities in local prevention decision making; to increase the use of epidemiological data to target HIV prevention resources; and to ensure that the Planning process takes into account scientific information on the effectiveness and efficiency of different HIV interventions. Local Community Planning groups are charged with identifying and prioritizing unmet HIV prevention needs in their communities, as well as prioritizing prevention interventions designed to address these needs. Their recommendations, in turn, form the basis for the local health department's request for HIV prevention funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Given the Community Planning process's central role in the allocation of federal HIV prevention funds, it is critical that sound decision-making procedures inform this process. In this article, we review the basics of the Community Planning prioritization process and summarize the decision-making experiences of Community Planning groups across the US. We then describe several priority-setting tools and decision analytic models that have been developed to assist in HIV Community Planning prioritization and discuss their strengths and weaknesses. Finally, we offer suggestions for improving the decision-analytic basis for HIV prevention Community Planning.

  • Prioritization methods for HIV Community Planning.
    Journal of public health management and practice : JPHMP, 2000
    Co-Authors: Ana P. Johnson-masotti, Steven D. Pinkerton, David R. Holtgrave
    Abstract:

    Since 1994, Community Planning groups (CPGs) have played an important role in shaping local HIV prevention efforts. The Community Planning process requires CPGs to prioritize HIV prevention interventions and unmet needs among at-risk populations. This article describes and compares four prioritization methods: (1) the ranking method, (2) Holtgrave's method, (3) Kaplan's method, and (4) a novel utility-based prioritization method. These methods are compared in terms of effectiveness, efficiency, equity, and political feasibility. The methods described here are meant to assist CPGs in the difficult prioritization task by helping CPG members organize their thoughts in the prioritization process.

  • HIV prevention: Community Planning groups.
    JAMA, 1995
    Co-Authors: David R. Holtgrave
    Abstract:

    To the Editor. —Mr Stryker and colleagues 1 summarized several barriers to effective human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevention programs, but did not make any mention of the revolutionary changes that have occurred in the past 2 years in the way HIV prevention programs are planned in the United States. Sixty-five health department grantees (all states, several cities, the District of Columbia, and the US territories) who receive HIV prevention funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are required to work in close partnership with Community Planning groups (CPGs) when prioritizing HIV prevention needs and interventions to meet those needs. 2 In total, these grantees received approximately $175 million in HIV prevention cooperative agreements in fiscal year 1994. Additionally, they received over $12 million in fiscal year 1994 resources to support HIV prevention Community Planning activities. Membership in a CPG should be inclusive and representative of the local
