San Ramon, CA (February 5, 2015) – Comprehensive Leon Churchill reviews present the urban planner and real estate professional's assessment on the efficiency of current city development strategies. The major cities of the world are in dire need for effective urban planning since the urban population has steadily shown an increase in recent years. It is estimated that by the year 2030, the urban population should reach an all-time high and amount to five billion.

Urban planning encompasses a few major aspects in society such as engineering, architecture, social issues and political matters. It is focused on the process of designing and regulating the uses of space for different activities. It impacts economic functions, and the environment as well. Urban planners are often faced with tasks like developing an open land or restoring and improving problematic areas in the city.

For this reason, the thorough Leon Churchill reviews on how effective the current development strategies are in helping the citizens of an urban area should be able to help improve urban planning strategies. The strategic planning areas involved in this practice are financing, environmental stability, reduction of poverty, improving citizen participation, promoting diversity, cooperation of different stakeholders and crisis planning. Each criterion is carefully determined before being implemented, and, after a period of time, is subjected to monitoring and evaluation to determine the efficiency of each.

Perhaps the latest trend in urban planning to date is sustainable development. This refers to the planning and implementation of strategies that would satisfy the present needs of the population without causing harmful consequences for the future generation. This concept is aimed at reconciling economic growth and environmental protection in the hopes of improving the general quality of life.
