Modeling Impacts to Agricultural Revenue and Government Service Costs from Urban Growth

Book Description
The San Joaquin Valley (SJV), comprising eight counties in the southern portion of California's Central Valley, is both some of the richest agricultural land in the United States and a region with many social, environmental and economic tensions. Land use policy in the region led to rapid conversion of agricultural land to suburban development over the past 3 decades. The Governor's Partnership for the San Joaquin Valley is a major initiative tasked with making policy recommendations to improve the economic well-being and quality of life in the San Joaquin Valley. One tool is a set of alternative-futures scenarios, defined by the Land Use, Housing and Agriculture working group, that portray policy scenarios that reflect preferences of major stakeholder communities. As part of the process, we modeled these scenarios using the UPlan urban growth model. Under each scenario, we projected crop land and agricultural revenue losses to develop a better understanding of the potential effects of urban growth on agricultural revenue. We used the distance of new development from existing development as an indicator of costs to provide each new-development scenario with urban services such as roads, sewer, water, and emergency services.

Comparing Futures for the Sacramento, San Joaquin Delta
Author: Jay Lund
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520945379
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
An ecosystem in freefall, a shrinking water supply for cities and agriculture, an antiquated network of failure-prone levees—this is the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, the major hub of California's water system. Written by a team of independent water experts, this analysis of the latest data evaluates proposed solutions to the Delta's myriad problems. Through in-depth economic and ecological analysis, the authors find that the current policy of channeling water exports through the Delta is not sustainable for any interest. Employing a peripheral canal-conveying water around the Delta instead of through it—as part of a larger habitat and water management plan appears to be the best strategy to maintain both a high-quality water supply and at the same time improve conditions for native fish and wildlife. This important assessment includes integrated analysis of long term ecosystem and water management options and demonstrates how issues such as climate change and sustainability will shape the future. Published in cooperation with the Public Policy Institute of California
