Assessment of Multifunctional Urban Land use Benefits an Actor-oriented Framework

Abstract

This paper seeks to position the increasingly popular concept of multifunctional land use in the context of urban planning and urban land rent theory. It aims to design a framework for identifying the benefits of multifunctionality in land use by offering a typological approach to three classes of actors (stakeholders and beneficiaries) involved, viz. investors, organizations and users. © 2006, JAPAN SECTION OF THE REGIONAL SCIENCE ASSOCIATION INTERNATIONAL.
