Abstract

The resurgence of state land use planning in the 1980s has again stimulated debate over the virtues of centralized land use control. Unfor tunately, the debate rages with little empirical evidence on substantive is sues. This paper examines the rela tionship between state land use planning and inclusionary zoning in Oregon, and explores whether state planning fosters inclusionary zoning. The paper suggests that state plan ning in Oregon indeed fosters a lim ited form of inclusionary zoning. Be cause state planning occurs in a different political environment than local planning, the paper suggests, state land use planning differs sub stantively from local planning. Fur ther, to the extent that similar politi cal forces operate in other states, state land use planning offers the potential of overcoming a major obstacle to providing low-income housing.
