7 The city is the ultimate artifact of any civilization The drama of an evolving democratic society made up of a multiplicity of racial, ethnic, and cultural groups rubbing shoulders every day is most apparent in the public realm which extends from the streets into the parks and the civic institutions that enrich urban life. Thomas H. Beeby in the book Plans of Chicago

8 History of Community Based Metropolitan Planning Plan of Chicago 1929 Regional Plan for New York and Environs 1943 County of London Plan Abercrombie Plan- Greater London Plan 1947 Copenhagen Finger Plan 1975 Cleveland Policy Plan

9 Who is doing Metropolitan Planning today? GO TO 2040 Chicago Metropolitan Plan Calgary Metropolitan Plan Portland Regional Vision: 2040 Growth Concept Nairobi Metro A World Class African Metropolis Denver Metro Vision 2030 Plan

10 Portland Regional Vision: The 2040 Growth Concept Making the Greatest Place The Metro Council works with local leaders and people throughout the region to create sustainable and prosperous communities for present and future generations. When someone asks you why you live in the Portland metropolitan area, what do you say? Chances are you love this place and choose to live here for many reasons. Whether your roots are generations deep or newly planted, you are part of a community that treasures the nature around us, the neighborhoods and businesses that sustain us and our shared commitment to preserving our quality of life. The quality of life we enjoy here is the result of conscious decisions and hard choices made by citizen leaders, business owners and elected officials to protect farms and forest land, preserve the character of single-family neighborhoods, revitalize commercial districts, invest in transportation options and safeguard our clean air, clean water and healthy ecosystems. As our population continues to grow, the Metro Council is committed to protecting the things we love about this place and charting a wise course for the future.
