Many American manufacturing cities have experienced depopulation and economic downturns over the past five decades, and various revitalization strategies have been suggested to overcome the decline ...issue—ranging from redevelopment to smart decline. However, while most land bank-related studies have focused on socioeconomic dynamics (income levels, unemployment rate, etc.) through the program, there is a lack of direct research on residential satisfaction changes. Additionally, surveys were frequently used in previous studies to evaluate residential satisfaction; however, this method has disadvantages, including constraints on time and cost, and the inability to take into account external factors that may affect residential satisfaction. Furthermore, most studies on urban decline have focused primarily on declining factors, and there have been few investigations into how cities change as urban regeneration strategies advance. Therefore, the primary purpose of this study is to identify the influence of the land bank program on residential satisfaction by using Twitter data. Approximately 300,000 Twitter posts containing location information generated within the city of Detroit were collected to determine the degree of sensitivity to each tweet and categorized into positive and negative emotions to determine the relationship between residential satisfaction and the land bank program. As a result, the increase in homeownership, built year, house value, and the number of land banking sold properties were found to have a negative effect on neighborhood satisfaction in Detroit. Although the research results indicated that while the land bank program did not significantly improve residential satisfaction in Detroit, it has made a partial contribution to improving living standards. These findings emphasize the importance of enhancing residential satisfaction and suggest the need for policy change. In response to the problem of urban contraction, it seems that indiscriminately distributing houses is not the only solution to prevent urban shrinkage. Furthermore, this study shows meaningful results on text mining and provides the possibility of developing research using social network services.
SWOT model is a technique to appraise strategies for rural development. This study aims to apply this model to examine the development of Yuksom Gram Panchayat Unit (GPU) of West district of Sikkim, ...India. To accomplish this analysis, internal factor evaluation (IFE) matrix and external factor evaluation matrix (EFE) were prepared to identify the critical and less important factors for development. Finally, a framework for strategy has been formulated by linking ‘strength-opportunity’ (SO) and ‘weakness-threat’ (WT) aspects. Results show mountain environment sustainability as the most agreed one (SO) and on the other hand, implementation of ‘land bank scheme’ and microfinance (WT) as the alternate planning strategies for the development of the Yuksom area
We examine conformance and performance dimensions of demolition recommendations in seven “Neighborhood Action Plans” (NAPs) issued between 2015 and 2017 in the shrinking city of Youngstown, Ohio. We ...use geographic information systems (GIS) to compare plan-suggested and actual demolitions. We examine whether overall statistics are similar and who was responsible for demolition. We conduct interviews with informants to understand causality. We find that NAPs are better implemented from performance than from conformance perspectives, but that nongovernmental organization (Land Bank) demolitions conformed more closely than local government. Interviewees provided several causes: procedural differences, overlapping responsibilities, influence of political decision makers on plan implementation, and shifting NAP goals.
In regulating the land bank policy, Indonesia refers to Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation and Presidential Regulation Number 64 of 2021 concerning Land Bank Agency. These two laws ...regulate all general technical requirements required by investors. This study aims to: 1) Describe the land bank legal policy after the legalization of Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation; 2). Formulate a land bank policy based on prophetic values which integrate the positive law and religious values. This is normative legal research which used secondary data and library materials as the main data sources. It used the philosophical juridical approach: the juridical approach was in the form of legislation (statute approach) and the philosophical approach was in the form of the prophetic ethical paradigm through ash-Asyatibi’s Maqasid al-Syari’ah (the purpose behind Islamic laws). The data analysis was divided into two. The first was the descriptive-qualitative analysis by describing land bank policies after the enactment of Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation. While in the second problem formulation, because the main objective was to find the concept of land bank policy based on prophetic ethics, the authors conducted critical and predictive analyses. Land bank policies have various advantages and disadvantages. With these weaknesses and strengths, a new land bank policy was formulated, which was predicted to be able to guarantee equitable land distribution and wise management of land tenure.
It is not easy to get a decent housing for low-income people (LIP) in the cities of Indonesia due to the limitation of land available for development in the urban areas allows the speculators to ...retain the benefits of land in an unregulated commodity business. This study aims to examine and analyze the establishment of land bank for ensuring the implementation of more prosperous, fair sharing and sustainable land management. The observational method of reviewing the land use issues, land bank models and legal basis was performed to understand the eligibility of land bank in management of land use to serve public interest of infrastructure construction and development of affordable housing for LIP in urban areas. The establishment of land bank institution in Indonesia is considered important to accommodate the need of lands in urban areas for a wide array of purposes. The analysis of landless housing prices in the Jabodetabek region for the development of five-story residential building can save more than 50% of income toward the necessity of affordable housing for LIP. The finding of this study may provide a contribution to get better understanding on the decision making process of sustainable land management at all levels of government in Indonesia particularly by the provincial government of Special Capital Territory of Jakarta.
•The issues of land and housing prices in Indonesia were reviewed.•The establishment of land bank institutions was proposed to manage the lands.•Various types of land supply can be transferred to the land bank management system.•Landless housing prices in Jabodetabek were simulated to support decision making process.
Land banks across the United States are managing expanding vacant property inventories. By maintaining vacant properties and engaging residents in the process, land banks facilitate processes ...integral to building safe neighborhoods and may play a role in violence prevention. Using generalized additive mixed model regression, adjusted for spatial and temporal dependencies, we examined whether land bank ownership and stewardship of vacant properties in Flint, Michigan were associated with trends in serious, violent, and firearm‐involved crime, between 2015 and 2018. We tested for differences in trends in crime density between properties owned by the Genesee County Land Bank Authority (GCLBA; n = 7151) and comparison properties not owned by the land bank (n = 6,245). In addition, we tested for differences in crime density trends between vacant properties that received different levels of land bank stewardship, including biannual mowing, GCLBA standard stewardship, and GCLBA‐sponsored community‐engaged stewardship. We found that GCLBA ownership was associated with net declines in densities of all types of crime and violence, over time, relative to properties not owned by the GCLBA. When we distinguished between levels of stewardship, we found that GCLBA stewardship, both with and without community engagement, was associated with net declines in serious and violent crime relative to comparison properties. Only community‐engaged GCLBA stewardship was associated with declines in firearm‐involved crime and firearm‐involved crime with a youth victim over time, relative to comparison properties. Land bank stewardship of vacant properties may be protective against crime, violence, and youth victimization in legacy cities like Flint, MI that experience high rates of vacant properties and violent crime.
Highlights
Land bank ownership of vacant properties is associated with declines in crime.
Land banks steward vacant properties in their care in a variety of ways.
Standard land bank stewardship was associated with declines in serious, violent crime.
Only community‐engaged land bank stewardship was associated with declines in firearm‐involved crime.
Community land trusts (CLTs) are a unique model of shared equity homeownership that promote equitable development and empower homebuyers in historically exclusive real estate markets. As a timely ...study about the potential future governance around affordable housing, the multiple case studies here identify places that have both a CLT and land bank, and where nascent initiatives by local governments focused on creating permanent affordable housing are facilitating collaborations between local CLTs and land banks. By exploring the themes and dynamics of these emerging collaborations with qualitative methods, the authors evaluate how CLTs can leverage collaborations with land banks as a tool to scale up permanent affordable housing and community control. Understanding how CLTs may benefit from collaborations with land banks is timely considering the current affordable housing crisis and an increasingly widespread recognition of systemic inequitable access to property ownership.
The article deals with the historical and legal analysis of the formation and development of the state credit system in the Ukrainian lands. The article outlines the conditions and circumstances ...under which the organizational and legal foundations of the credit activity of banking and other state institutions were formed. During the incorporation of Ukraine into the Russian Empire, the elimination of Ukrainian statehood, and the encroachment upon the very cultural and national identity of the Ukrainians, the system of state credit actually did not exist. The attempts to create banking institutions were unsuccessful because there was niether any market formed nor money and securities in the feudal serfdom empire.
The changes only took place in the course of capitalist modernization in the second half of the nineteenth century. The abolition of serfdom made available a large number of workers and the legislator faced the urgent task of creating legal foundations for the development of the credit market. The main reform was the creation of the State Bank in 1860, which, in addition to regulating money market, emission activities, made long-term loans. It was guided by the statutory statute, other regulatory legal acts. In order to promote the credit in the sphere of agriculture, in particular mortgage, the Peasant Land Bank and the State Noble Land Bank were established, which got advantages together with privately owned entities. The offices, branches and agencies of the State Bank and the branches of State Land Banks were directly active in Ukrainian provinces Their activity (and, accordingly, its legal regulation) was under the influenc of the specific features of Ukraine’s financial and economic development, namely, a much more higher pace of industrial and agricultural development than in other regions of the Russian empire. But the insufficient development of long-term crediing in Ukraine had the negative impact on that development.
This article outlines the political economy critiques of the shrinking cities literature by answering the following: (1) how does the “shrinking cities” canon define a categorically distinct set of ...geographies with unique challenges and what solutions are proposed? and (2) how has the urban political economy literature engaged with and critiqued these ways of framing problems and solutions? This analysis finds that the “the shrinking city” is loosely defined and that debates exist around their exceptionalism. Urban political economy scholarship debates whether the solutions provided through shrinking cities literature are innovative alternatives to growth-oriented development or manifestations of austerity urbanism.
