I posted two blogs entitled "TWO QUESTIONS" and "TWO QUESTION FOLLOW-UP" and have again been banned from posting blogs. I think the second post was the one that offended. I wanted to relocate the city design goal and add the following to the second blog. That's when I found that I was banned. I'd at least like to get the goals completed before I'm banned entirely. I do plan to continue posting and updating "Cities and Design" at www.wmhosack.com however, when I find time away from my book.
City Planning Goals
- To protect our source of life by geographically defining the Built and Natural Domains.
- To coordinate the land use allocation of shelter capacity and intensity; movement corridors; open space; and life support systems within a limited Built Domain that protects our source of life; our quality of life; and the financial stability of our shared municipal organizations.
City Design Goal
To shelter growing populations within a limited Built Domain that protects their quality and source of life - the Natural Domain.
Architectural Goals
- To coordinate land use allocation with shelter capacity, intensity and economic benefit at the project level, since the aggregation will determine our quality of life within a limited Built Domain.
- To improve the design of shelter context, composition, capacity, intensity and symbiotic function within a geographically limited Built Domain.
- To improve the tools, knowledge and concepts needed to achieve the preceding goals.
- To expand private practice into the public domain and workplace by offering the ability to improve public benefit.
Common Collaborative Goal
To build a network (of professional organizations) to achieve the preceding goals through research, collaboration, education and practice
