Transect Planning
(Duany and Talen, JAPA, Summer 2002)
A transect is a geographical cross-section of a region used to reveal a sequence of environments. It seeks to create an experience of immersion in any one type of environment by specifying and arranging the elements that comprise that environment in a way that is true to locational character, i.e., in a way that is expected given the nature of the place.

Measure 37 (2004)
By March 12, 2007, 7,562 Measure 37 claims for compliance payments or land use waivers had been filed spanning 750,898 acres statewide in Oregon. The claims filed include mobile home parks in sacred native burial grounds, shopping malls in farmland, and gravel pit mines in residential neighborhoods. There are no provisions in the law that public notice must be provided to neighboring property owners when a claim is filed. Because municipalities can not afford the billions in compensation, the laws have been waived in every case. Claims filed in Portland, Oregon, by December 4, 2006, totaled over $250 million. Many of these claims were filed by major area land developers.
