FAO, 2015
‘a set of governance practices for developing and implementing strategies, plans, policies and projects, and for regulating the location, timing andform of development’
Healey P (1997)
Spatial planning has become an integral part of the way societies are organized and how resources are allocated, thereby having far-reaching distributional consequences
‘Balancing different, often conflicting, public and privateinterests is a key element in spatial planning’

The aim of spatial planning
• manage rapid growth, urbanisation and large-scale investments;
• ensure sufficient infrastructure, water supply and sewage
systems;
• avoid corruption and ad hoc decision-making;
• improve the linkages between urban and rural areas;
• reduce environmental damage and limit impacts of natural
disasters;
• ensure sufficient availability of land, fisheries and forest to suit
future requests;
• enhance and protect natural resources;
• adapt to and prepare for climate changes.

General principles of spatial planning
The principles of urban planning are like “grammar in language...
“Grammar is observed by any writer. Poor writers with poor grammar produce poor works of literature. [Urban] planning is the same.”

Urban land use refers to what takes up the physical space of a town or city.
The main urban land uses are:
Model versus theory: what’s the difference?
• critique, revision and summation of past knowledge in the form of generalpropositions and the fusion of diverse views and knowledge in general frameworks of explanation (Pieterse 2010)
Theory
• is a simplified representation of an object of investigation for purposesof description, explanation, forecasting or planning.
• A spatial model is a model of an object of investigation in bi-space(space, attribute).
• A space-time model is a model of an object of investigation in tri-space (space, time, attribute) (Wegener 2000)
Model
18
Leading models of urban land use
• The Chicago School
• Concentric Zone Model’ (1925)
• ‘Sector Model’ (1939)
• ‘Multiple Nuclei Model’ (1945)
Classical monocentric: there is a single central point of the city
• Garden City Concept
• Linear City
• Neighbourhood Planning
• City Beautiful Movement
• Green Belts
Other town planning concepts

Classical models
Burgess’s ‘Concentric Zone Model’ → cities grow outwards from the centre in a series of rings

Multiple Nuclei Model
• a city might start with a single central business district (CBD), but over the time the activities scatter and gets modified.
• the activities listed in the model can be considered as independent zones which influences activities around them

Garden City Concept
→ self-contained communities are surrounded by "greenbelts", containing proportionate areas of residences, industry, and agriculture

Garden City Concept

Linear City Concept
1. a purely segregated zone for railway lines,
2. a zone of production and communal enterprises, with related scientific, technical and educational institutions, ,
3. a residential zone, including a band of social institutions, a band of residential buildings and a "children's band",
4. a park zone, and
5. an agricultural zone with gardens and state-run farms.

Neighbourhood Planning – C A Perry

Clarence Arthur Perry
Away from the „noise of the
trains, and out of sight of the
smoke and ugliness of
industrial plants” (Perry 1929)
Neighbourhood Planning – C A Perry
35
•Centre the school
•Size the neighbourhood
•Place arterial streets along the
perimeter
•Design internal streets
•Restrict local shopping areas to
the perimeter
•Dedicate at least 10 percent of
the neighborhood land area to
parks and open space (Perry
1929)
City Beautiful Movement
36
„City Beautiful movement …
claimed that design could not
be separated from social
issues and should encourage
civic pride and engagement.”
