- Abstract
- The Denver metro region, like many areas of the country, is experiencing rapid growth in a context of weak regional institutions and multiple jurisdictions within the region, hi March 1997, representative elected officials from cities and counties on the Board of Directors of the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG) voted almost unanimously to approve the Metro- Vision 2020 Plan specifying a 700 square mile extent of development in 2020. This plan represented an increase of about 150 square miles over the region's existing 550 square mile extent, somewhat less than through the lens of dispute resolution theory, a case study of Denver' s regional planning process offers insight for planners involved in voluntary regional planning efforts in other areas of the country.
