Planning and Development in Metropolitan Affairs

Abstract
The future of city planning will depend on the relations it develops with the broad movements rooted in problems of intimate concern to the metropolitan citizen. A planning-development framework is suggested as an important instrument to point the way to these relations. This framework focuses on the five classes of development assets—human resources, natural resources, private capital, public capital, and organization—and develops their implications at three crucial levels—suprametropolitan, metropolitan, and intrametropolitan. The development of the great metropolitan assets suggests some of the vital bonds with important groups and activities which must increasingly occupy the attention of the city planner.
