Innovation through consistency and continuity: initiatives to achieve innovation in the built environment should be high on planners' agendas
Article Abstract:
Quality, urban renewal and the future of town centres are significant issues towards achieving a better built environment. Quality concerns include efforts to improve design standards of new housing developments. Crewe and Nantwich Borough Council planners believe that the appearance of towns should not just be based on fashions preferred by developers, and Lancaster City Council has declared the West End area of Morcambe a renewal area following problems of urban decay and deprivation.
