Extended HPV typing test performed better predict value for CIN2+ among elderly women in China

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to examine the cervical cancer screening practices among women residing in Lingang New District of Shanghai. Moreover, the study aimed to delve into the characteristics of HPV infection and cervical lesions in older women (≥60 years old), seeking for more effective method for cervical cancer screening. MethodsThis is a cross-sectional study enrolled women who were referred to colposcopy and cervical histological examination due to abnormal cytology or HPV tests from Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital between January 2018 and December 2022. ResultsA total of 1,931 women (mean age: 41.8 ± 12.5, range: 18–88 years old) were enrolled, 119 individuals aged ≥ 60 and 1732 aged <60. The infection rates of HPV52, 33, 35, 56, 26 and 81 were significantly higher in the elderly group. Multiple HPV infection rates were also higher in this group and were associated with cervical lesions. The probability of LSIL, HSIL and Ca in women over 60 years old was significantly higher compared to women under 60. The top three HPV genotypes in elderly women with CIN2+ were HPV16, 52, and 58. The Yoden index was higher for extended typing for HPV 31/33/45/52/58(0.41) compared to cytology(0.29), high risk HPV without specific typing(0.07), cotest(cytology and high risk HPV, 0.06 or 0.30), or the current shunt strategy(0.07). ConclusionsElderly women still need to continue cervical cancer screening, and extended typing test for HPV16/18/31/33/45/52/58 is a more effective method for this age group.

Comparisons of Retention and Lag Characteristics of Rainfall–Runoff under Different Rainfall Scenarios in Low-Impact Development Combination: A Case Study in Lingang New City, Shanghai

An increasing focus has been given to stormwater management using low-impact development (LID), which is regarded as a “near-nature” concept and is utilized to manage and reduce surface runoff during the rainfall–runoff process. According to the hydrological monitoring data, we evaluated the retention and lag characteristics of rainfall–runoff in LID combination under three rainfall-intensity scenarios (light–moderate, heavy, and torrential rainfall) in Lingang New City in Shanghai. LID facilities have been constructed for three years in the target study area, including rain gardens, retention ponds, green parking, porous pavement, and grass swales. The average runoff retention was 10.6 mm, 21.3 mm, and 41.6 mm under light–moderate, heavy, and torrential rainfall scenarios, respectively, and the corresponding runoff retention rate was 72.9%, 64.7%, and 76.1% during the study period. By comparing rainfall, runoff retention, runoff retention rate, cumulative rainfall, and lag times, it becomes evident that the ability to retain runoff can be greatly improved in the LID combination. The average runoff retention was significantly enhanced by nearly two times and four times under the heavy and torrential rainfall scenarios compared to the conditions under the light–moderate rainfall scenario. Furthermore, the lag time from the end of rainfall to the end of runoff (t2) and the lag time between the centroid of rainfall and the centroid of runoff (t3) showed a significantly negative correlation with rainfall intensity. Meanwhile, t3 presented an incredibly positive correlation with rainfall duration. In this study, the LID combination demonstrated superior benefits in extending the duration of runoff in rainfall events with lower rainfall amounts, and demonstrated significant overall lag effects in rainfall events with longer durations and lower rainfall amounts. These results confirmed the vital role of the LID combination in stormwater management and the hydrologic impact of the LID combination on rainfall-induced runoff retention and lag effects. This work has provided valuable insights into utilizing LID facilities and can contribute to a better understanding of how runoff retention and lag characteristics respond to different rainfall intensity scenarios.

Combined effects of temperature and monsoon on seasonal variations of atmospheric polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the coastal Shanghai, China

An intensive sampling program was conducted at two coastal sites of megacity Shanghai - the emerging town Lingang New Area (LGNA), and the petrochemical-industry zone Jinshan Area (JSA) from July 2016–June 2017, to study the occurrence, sources, environmental behavior and fate of atmospheric polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Results showed the median concentrations of total atmospheric PAHs were 18 ng m−3 and 12 ng m−3 in JSA and LGNA, respectively, which were lower than those recently detected in northern coastal China, and previously detected in urban/suburban Shanghai. There was strong/opposite temperature dependence for gaseous and particle-bound PAHs, indicating the importance of ongoing local and nearby volatilization; While the gas-particle partitions of individual PAH compound changed dramatically with seasons, with most easily adsorbed on particles during colder months. The potential source contribution function (PSCF) and concentration weight trajectory (CWT) model demonstrated the interactions of terrestrial and marine air mass regulated by the East Asian monsoon. Specifically, PAHs released by wintertime coal heating in northern China and summertime marine shipping in East China Sea, that transported through northwest and southeast monsoon, respectively, and aggravated the pollution of coastal Shanghai, especially for the background site in LGNA. The positive matrix factorization (PMF) source apportionment suggested the dominance of petrogenic sources for gaseous PAHs, coal and biomass combustion sources for particle-bound PAHs, and further demonstrated the seasonal variations of these potential sources. Atmospheric PAHs would deposit to the coastal waters, with gaseous absorption fluxes almost an order of magnitude higher than those of particle-bound deposition.

Scenario prediction of energy consumption and carbon emissions in Lingang New Area based on LEAP model

Based on the statistical data of Lingang New Area in 2021, the LEAP-Lingang model was constructed, and the energy consumption and carbon emissions of Lingang New Area from 2022 to 2035 were predicted and studied by setting three scenarios: benchmark, policy and low carbon. The results show that under the policy scenario, the new area can maintain low energy consumption and carbon emission development, but fails to peak carbon emissions before 2035, and can basically peak carbon emissions around 2030 under low-carbon conditions. On the basis of existing policies, the new area can further promote clean energy development, accelerate regional industry and energy efficiency upgrading, and actively promote green power and green certificate trading to accelerate the process of carbon peaking.

Low carbon research of science and technology park in southern cities

Climate change is a major global issue of general concern to the international community. As a developing country focusing on environmental protection, China has adopted a series of relevant policies and measures to address global warming, namely, achieving carbon peak by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060. It can be said that carbon peaking is China's national policy to actively respond to climate change, and is also an independent commitment based on scientific demonstration; Carbon neutrality is an action goal based on China's national conditions and is also a long-term development strategy with a long-term vision. In order to realize the important long-term strategy of “carbon neutrality” at an early date, low-carbon buildings will gradually come into people's lives. This paper first analyzes the crisis and challenges we are facing under the background of the current era, and expounds how to solve the energy crisis. In this paper, we propose that green and low-carbon buildings will make a significant contribution to solving the problem of carbon pollution. Then, we studied the low carbon scheme of science and technology parks in southern cities through literature review, and case study. Next, taking the project of Block H01-01, Unit PDC1-0401, Lingang New Area of Shanghai Free Trade Zone as an example, we 、analyzed the technical characteristics of the project's climate responsive design and the integrated design of renewable energy buildings, and elaborated its project functions. While satisfying people's demands for scientific research and comfortable living, it also responded to the call of the national “double carbon” goal and completed the task of “strengthening building energy conservation and continuously improving building energy efficiency” in the key work of energy conservation, emission reduction and carbon reduction in Shanghai. Finally, it is concluded that green and low-carbon buildings can make outstanding contributions to the realization of “double carbon” goals in the future, and at the same time provide a more powerful guarantee for human living environment and quality of life.

Sustainability of Suburban Industrial Development through Place Attachment

This research uses urban space reconstruction as the entry point, discussing the characteristics of residents’ sense of place in Lingang new town, Shanghai, based on the method of factor analysis to divide the sense of place into place attachment, place identity, and place dependence. On the whole, residents’ sense of place in Lingang new town is at a common level, and the comprehensive score of residents’ sense of place in Lingang new town is "more than half". Meanwhile, place attachment is the highest, place dependence is the lowest, and place identity is in the middle. Therefore, the sense of place mainly depends on place attachment. Using an independent T test and variance analysis to explore the characteristics of the sense of place, this paper has found that age, income level, education level, household registration, and migration patterns have significantly different influences on the three dimensions of the sense of place. There is no difference in gender and the type of occupation, whether they are working in Lingang New Town or not. The research on the sense of place in suburban industrial development zones presents a new perspective for solving the social space problems in the development zone. Finally, this research suggests improving the construction of public facilities, paying more attention to youth groups’ sense of place, and enhancing the sense of belonging to the highly educated groups and high-income groups, as well as strengthening innovation and entrepreneurship cooperation between the new town and the main city.

Elastic and Inelastic Ground Deformation in Shanghai Lingang Area Revealed by Sentinel-1, Leveling, and Groundwater Level Data

Shanghai Lingang New City, located in the southeast corner of Shanghai, was constructed by land reclamation from 2002 to 2005, in an area where the geological structure is prone to subsidence over time. Firstly, we explore the spatio-temporal pattern of ground subsidence and its mechanism using the Persistent Scatterers Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PSInSAR) technique by processing 50 scenes of Sentinel-1A images acquired from May 2016 to May 2018. In order to assess the accuracy of PSInSAR derived deformation, we collect the first-class leveling data at two benchmarks located in the study area; the comparison between the two settlement indicates that the maximum difference is 1.93 mm and 2.9 mm, respectively, which validates the PSInSAR’s high accuracy. We then obtain the skeleton release coefficients by the joint analysis of PSInSAR measurements and groundwater level data. Finally, we find that this coastal area has undergone both elastic and inelastic deformation from 2016 to 2018. The outcome shows that the combination of different techniques is conductive to understand the deformation mechanism of the aquifer system in these coastal areas, which is expected to be a valuable reference for ground subsidence monitoring and groundwater extraction management.

Seasonal variation and deposition of atmospheric organophosphate esters in the coastal region of Shanghai, China

The coastal megacity Shanghai is located in the center of the Yangtze River Delta, a dominant flame retardants (FRs) production region in China, especially for organophosphate esters (OPEs). This prompted us to investigate occurrence and seasonal changes of atmospheric OPEs in Shanghai, as well as to evaluate their sources, environmental behavior and fate as a case study for global coastal regions. Atmospheric gas and particle phase OPEs were weekly collected at two coastal sites - the emerging town Lingang New Area (LGNA), and the chemical-industry zone Jinshan Area (JSA) from July 2016–June 2017. Total atmospheric concentrations of the observed OPEs were significantly higher in JSA (median of 1800 pg m−3) than LGNA (median of 580 pg m−3). Tris(1-chloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TCPP) was the most abundant compound, and the proportion of three chlorinated OPEs were higher in the particle phase (55%) than in the gas phase (39%). The year-round median contribution of particle phase OPEs was 33%, which changed strongly with seasons, accounting for 10% in summer in contrast to 62% in winter. Gas and particle phase OPEs in JSA exhibited significant correlations with inverse of temperature, respectively, indicating the importance of local/secondary volatilization sources. The estimated fluxes of gaseous absorption were almost 2 orders of magnitude higher than those of particle phase deposition, which could act as sources of organic phosphorus to coastal and open ocean waters.

Tracking of Land Reclamation Activities Using Landsat Observations—An Example in Shanghai and Hangzhou Bay

At present, reclamation—changing ocean areas into inland land cover type for human usage—is one of the major methods for expanding land area around the world to alleviate the problem of land shortage. Thus, reclamation activities play an important role in land area extension. In recent years, reclamation projects have been active in eastern China. However, research on how to determine the initiation of reclamation activity remains very limited. Thus, a method of tracking reclamation activities was proposed in this study to analyze the coastline change due to human activities in Shanghai Lingang New City and Hangzhou Bay area. First, the reclamation area was extracted and separated into sea filling and sea enclosing. Next, the “SEDIMENT” signal track method and the “Eight-Neighborhood” morphological method were used to track dissimilar reclamation types. The historical reclamation activities (including start time and end time) over the recent 30 years were also tracked and obtained. Experimental results indicated that the time tracker accuracy of reclamation activity can reach 83.8%. Thus, this study can provide a reference for tracking coastline change.

Engineering an Ecological Civilization Along Shanghai’s Main Waterfront and Coastline: Evaluating Ongoing Efforts to Construct an Urban Eco-Network

Recent ecological civilization policies make clear that China is willing to play a leading role in a sustainable green transition. But there are still discrepancies in definitions, appreciation and evaluation of ecological assets. This paper examines how Shanghai works on a sustainability transition, with a focus on its main urban waterfronts and coastline, in the context of an extremely high population concentration, world’s highest real estate values, and continuous urban development pressure. This paper will mobilize insights from the academic field of sustainability transitions to show how urban planning and design ambitions are translated into realities on the ground. In its latest Shanghai Master Plan (2017-2035), the city commits itself to set an example for other Chinese cities. Moreover, Shanghai’s city leaders want to inspire and push cities internationally to become more adaptable and resilient, both in the Global South and Global North. The spatially most radical action to realize this ambition is to create “a green and open eco-network” with 60% of Shanghai’s municipal territory to be used for ecological purposes, mostly wetlands. This paper will examine three urban planning and design projects that have key positions within this eco-network. On all three sites there are land-use conflicts, between urban development and ecological (re-)development. The first case is the recent transformation of no less than 120 km of former industrial dominated waterfront along the Huangpu River, of which half was completed between 2016 and 2021. The second case, Nanhui Coastal Wetland Reserve with adjacent Lingang New City; and the third case, Chongming Eco-Island, started both around the millennium and had a 2020 planning horizon. After learning lessons from their previous sustainable innovation journeys these latter two projects entered a new phase as part of the eco-network. The paper concludes with seven practical recommendations aimed to reduce discrepancies between expectations and their implementation in practice: 1) use clear definitions; 2) co-create a shared vision for the future; 3) stop building on vulnerable locations; 4) create conditions of social learning; 5) supervision needs to go beyond planning boundaries; 6) step beyond an anthropocentric approach; and 7) foster a more experimental approach.

Exploring the Impacts of Living in a "Green" City on Individual BMI: A Study of Lingang New Town in Shanghai, China.

Urban planning and design in the 21st century is increasingly focusing on sustainability, illustrated by the proliferation of greener cities. While operational definitions and the actual planning of these cities can vary considerably (e.g., eco cities and low carbon cities), conceptually, at least, these terms overlap, particularly with regard to how they attempt to achieve both greener infrastructural design and healthier human lifestyles. This paper presents the findings of survey-based research carried out within Lingang New Town in Shanghai in 2019. In the cities of the Global North, the interplay between green infrastructural provision and public health has been of interest, especially in the context of social inequalities; however, there is little research from rapidly urbanizing countries where green urbanism is being increasingly promoted. Using this newly constructed example, we identified a clear positive correlation between moving to a green city and the adoption of healthier lifestyles. The structural equation modelling results suggest that behaviors around the use of green space as well as perceptions of different green space have notable impacts on residents’ physical health, measured by body mass index (BMI). The findings further illustrate systemic inequalities among private housing, rental housing and public housing typologies with regard to the distribution of health benefits.

Comparative Advantages of Free Trade Port Construction in Shanghai under the Belt and Road Initiative

As China’s opening-up grows wider under the Belt and Road Initiative, the exploration and construction of free trade ports have received increasing attention. In 2018, China’s first free trade port was settled in Hainan instead of Shanghai. In 2019, after the Lingang New Area of China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone was approved by the central government, six new pilot free trade zones were launched in Shandong, Hebei, Heilongjiang, Jiangsu, Yunnan, and Guangxi provinces. As the bridgehead of the Belt and Road Initiative, Shanghai established the first and biggest pilot free trade zone in China and gained the priority of institutional innovation exploration in Lingang New Area. Whether and how Shanghai will lead the construction of free trade ports and the new round of higher-level opening-up has become a research agenda that requires further study. Based on the document analysis, competition analysis and factor analysis in this paper, the following results were drawn out: (1) The construction of a free trade port is an upgrade of the 18 free trade zones and the 50 cities involved, and it needs more high-level opening-up, more sophisticated services, more rigorous supervision, and more professional talent; (2) With its geographical location, economic foundation, development support, and industrial services, Shanghai has the potential, foundation, and momentum to explore institutional innovation in the construction of pilot free trade zones and free trade port; (3) Development basis, port shipping, talent attraction, service support, risk supervision and control are the five major comparative advantages and the important driving factors that need to be considered in exploring and leading the construction of China’s free trade port under the higher quality development of the Belt and Road Initiative.

State rescaling and large-scale urban development projects in China: The case of Lingang New Town, Shanghai

Large-scale urban development projects have become the main vehicle by which targeted interventions for place- and scale-specific state initiatives unfold, triggering a series of processes that are associated with the rescaling of state space. This study aims to understand the place-specific conditions, pathways and strategies whereby states’ spatial and scalar restructuring takes place in urban development projects (UDPs) within China’s political economic contexts, and in turn how UDPs act as critical lenses for viewing the changing nature of state spatial strategy in China, through a case study of the Lingang New Town in Shanghai. The major findings are: UDPs in China function as tools not just for land value extraction but also for scale-making to cater to the state’s pursuits of place-specific competitiveness in the global economy; the restructuring of the state apparatus and regulatory frameworks is driven by place-specific tensions and crises triggered by earlier rounds of state rescaling; the state chose state-agents rather than market-agents to reinforce its power, and thus the state space expands through development of UDPs; through developing UDPs, China’s spatial strategies have explicitly and officially engaged with the discourse of globalisation while implicitly engaging with geographically variegated practices of neoliberalisation. At the theoretical level, this article facilitates an investigation of how China’s state spatial strategy, characterised by geographically and chronologically variegated engagement with neoliberalism, is actualised through UDPs. It also demonstrates how, despite being a socialist polity, pragmatic market measures and downscaling are taken as transient measures in times of need.

Long-term flood-hazard modeling for coastal areas using InSAR measurements and a hydrodynamic model: The case study of Lingang New City, Shanghai

In this paper, we study long-term coastal flood risk of Lingang New City, Shanghai, considering 100- and 1000-year coastal flood return periods, local seal-level rise projections, and long-term ground subsidence projections. TanDEM-X satellite data acquired in 2012 were used to generate a high-resolution topography map, and multi-sensor InSAR displacement time-series were used to obtain ground deformation rates between 2007 and 2017. Both data sets were then used to project ground deformation rates for the 2030s and 2050s. A 2-D flood inundation model (FloodMap-Inertial) was employed to predict coastal flood inundation for both scenarios. The results suggest that the sea-level rise, along with land subsidence, could result in minor but non-linear impacts on coastal inundation over time. The flood risk will primarily be determined by future exposure and vulnerability of population and property in the floodplain. Although the flood risk estimates show some uncertainties, particularly for long-term predictions, the methodology presented here could be applied to other coastal areas where sea level rise and land subsidence are evolving in the context of climate change and urbanization.

Investigation and evaluation of contamination in dredged reclaimed land in China

ABSTRACTLarge-scale reclamation projects have been developing rapidly in China’s coastal lands since 2000. In this study, the scale and pollutant contents of reclaimed lands were collected from published data and field surveys. Over 80% of the gross area was formed using hydraulic reclaimed technology. The pollution index, geoaccumulation index, and Nemerow integrated pollution index (NIPI) of 13 pollutant types were calculated based on the collected data. The potential pollution within major newly reclaimed lands was evaluated with valid pollutant data from sediments of the neighboring water. All reclaimed lands larger than 30 km2 were slightly to seriously polluted with Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd, Cr, Hg, As, and Ni according to NIPI. The reclaimed fields in Hengsha Island, Binhai Tower, and Lingang New City of Shanghai were selected as verification sites for the pollution evaluations. The Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd, Cr, As, and Ni concentrations in dredged soils determined through inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry showed a generally good soil quality within the typical reclaimed fields. Principal component and hierarchical clustering analyses indicated that the relatively high As content in the reclaimed soils was due to the internal pollutants of dredging fills and originated from anthropogenic sources.

Exploring an integrated urban carbon dioxide (CO2) emission model and mitigation plan for new cities

Mitigating carbon emission efforts in urban planning and design phase have become increasingly popular due to climate change. However, it is difficult to verify whether the carbon mitigation target could be achieved for a new city in the absence of quantitative analysis methods. About 100 new cities have emerged every year in the past decades, yet few of them employed low carbon strategies within proper prediction methods. In response, this paper offers an integrated analysis method of assessment and mitigation for urban carbon dioxide (CO2) of new cities. Building sector, transportation sector, and green land sector are considered as urban CO2 sources and sink. Life cycle analysis was employed in building sector to estimate its emissions. Based on the current and predicted emission data, a mitigation goal was then set and allocated efficiently through different sectors. To elaborate on this process, a case study of Shanghai Lingang New City was presented. The urban low carbon roadmap was planned and a variety of recommendations concerning policy were offered to assist the local government and policy makers in order to achieve the low carbon development goal as well.

Scenario prediction of emerging coastal city using CA modeling under different environmental conditions: a case study of Lingang New City, China.

The world's coastal regions are experiencing rapid urbanization coupled with increased risk of ecological damage and storm surge related to global climate and sea level rising. This urban development issue is particularly important in China, where many emerging coastal cities are being developed. Lingang New City, southeast of Shanghai, is an excellent example of a coastal city that is increasingly vulnerable to environmental change. Sustainable urban development requires planning that classifies and allocates coastal lands using objective procedures that incorporate changing environmental conditions. In this paper, we applied cellular automata (CA) modeling based on self-adaptive genetic algorithm (SAGA) to predict future scenarios and explore sustainable urban development options for Lingang. The CA model was calibrated using the 2005 initial status, 2015 final status, and a set of spatial variables. We implemented specific ecological and environmental conditions as spatial constraints for the model and predicted four 2030 scenarios: (a) an urban planning-oriented Plan Scenario; (b) an ecosystem protection-oriented Eco Scenario; (c) a storm surge-affected Storm Scenario; and (d) a scenario incorporating both ecosystem protection and the effects of storm surge, called the Ecostorm Scenario. The Plan Scenario has been taken as the baseline, with the Lingang urban area increasing from 45.8km(2) in 2015 to 66.8km(2) in 2030, accounting for 23.9% of the entire study area. The simulated urban land size of the Plan Scenario in 2030 was taken as the target to accommodate the projected population increase in this city, which was then applied in the remaining three development scenarios. We used CA modeling to reallocate the urban cells to other unconstrained areas in response to changing spatial constraints. Our predictions should be helpful not only in assessing and adjusting the urban planning schemes for Lingang but also for evaluating urban planning in coastal cities elsewhere.

Effect of a cement-lignin agent on the shear behavior of Shanghai dredged marine soils

ABSTRACTWith the rapid urbanization in Shanghai, China, suitable fill materials have been reported to be in great shortage in recent years. A prospective solution to these issues is to convert the huge amount of existing dredged marine soils to construction materials via solidification. However, there have been no studies on the shear behavior of solidified dredged materials from Shanghai region so far, while it has been reported by various researchers that the available data obtained from certain types of clay cannot be confidently and readily applied to other types of soils. To address this challenging issue, in this article, samples of Shanghai marine dredged soils were retrieved from the world’s largest reclamation project in Shanghai Lin-gang New City. A series of laboratory tests have been conducted to investigate the shear behavior of Shanghai dredged marine soils solidified using a new composite curing agent made of cement and lignin. The test results and the effect of this cement–lignin agent on the shear behavior of Shanghai marine soils, including the stress–strain behavior, shear strength properties, and failure characteristics are presented and discussed, which can provide valuable reference for the use of dredged soils as construction materials in the Shanghai region.

Green stormwater infrastructure eco-planning and development on the regional scale: a case study of Shanghai Lingang New City, East China

Urban underlying surface has been greatly changed with rapid urbanization, considered to be one of the major causes for the destruction of urban natural hydrological processes. This has imposed a huge challenge for stormwater management in cities. There has been a shift from gray water management to green stormwater management thinking. The green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) is regarded as an effective and cost-efficient stormwater management eco-landscape approach. China’s GSI practice and the development of its theoretical framework are still in the initial stage. This paper presents an innovative framework for stormwater management, integrating green stormwater infrastructure and landscape security patterns on a regional scale based on an urban master plan. The core concept of green stormwater infrastructure eco-planning is to form an interconnected GSI network (i.e., stormwater management landscape security pattern) which consists of the location, portion, size, layout, and structure of GSI so as to efficiently safeguard natural hydrological processes. Shanghai Lingang New City, a satellite new town of Shanghai, China was selected as a case study for GSI studies. Simulation analyses of hydrological processes were carried out to identify the critical significant landscape nodes in the highpriority watersheds for stormwater management. GSI should be planned and implemented in these identified landscape nodes. The comprehensive stormwater management landscape security pattern of Shanghai Lingang New City is designed with consideration of flood control, stormwater control, runoff reduction, water quality protection, and rainwater utilization objectives which could provide guidelines for smart growth and sustainable development of this city.
