Questions & Answers

1. What are your thoughts on land use and development for vacant land in Newark, especially in Areas 3 and 4?

Growth can bring significant net benefits such as Ohlone College Newark Campus in area 3 and new business development in area 4. Eventually, however, unplanned or poorly planned growth can be counterbalanced by higher land and building rents, longer traffic delays, and increased air pollution. Local economic development depends importantly on the internal efficiency of the whole city, seen as an integrated production complex, with its structural form and paths of movement arranged in mutually supportive ways.
