Land Use Expert Witnesses
Land use is the function or functions that humans apply to available land around them. The land is managed through zoning, which is how local governments regulate and control how the land around them is to be used. Zoning is used to make cities more pleasing, control pollution, protect the environment and efficient transportation. Land use is important to detail governmental land use decisions and priorities, adaptations to the land to meet the needs of humans, predict future land use trends, and study human trends and movements. There are seven types of land use:
- Residential - houses, townhouses, and apartments
- Commercial - Shopping malls, banks, and convenience stores
- Recreational - Parks, movie theaters, bowling alleys
- Agricultural - Farms, pastures, ranges
- Transport - Airports, train and bus stations, expressways, and local roads
- Industrial - Factories, warehouses
- Institutional - Schools, hospitals, churches
