Question

Which of the following BEST describes scenarios that urban planning could be used to resolve?

A city becoming increasingly deindustrialized as the population moves into the service sector
A city where major industries in the area are too spread out and would benefit from being concentrated in one area
A city where industry is evenly spread
A walkable city with greenbelts
A city with mixed income-level housing and steady employment

Answer 1

A city becoming increasingly deindustrialized as the population moves into the service sector. Urban planning could be used to revitalize underutilized industrial areas, encourage new businesses and industries to locate in the city, and support the development of the service sector. Additionally, urban planning could promote the redevelopment of former industrial sites for mixed-use development, affordable housing, and other community needs.
