Podcasts about Land use

This lecture integrates two essential components of the bar exam: Criminal Procedure and Real Property. It covers constitutional protections in criminal prosecutions, key doctrines related to property ownership, estates, and land use. The discussion includes the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendments, as well as various property interests and landlord-tenant relationships.TakeawaysCriminal procedure is primarily concerned with constitutional protections.The Fourth Amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures.A valid search typically requires a warrant supported by probable cause.Exceptions to the warrant requirement include exigent circumstances and consent.The exclusionary rule renders evidence obtained in violation of the Fourth Amendment inadmissible.Miranda warnings are necessary during custodial interrogations.Double jeopardy prevents multiple prosecutions for the same offense.Real property law focuses on rights and interests in land.Fee simple absolute is the most complete ownership interest.Landlords have specific duties to maintain habitable conditions.

In this episode of the Dover Download podcast, Deputy City Manager Christopher Parker chats with Erin Bassegio from the Planning Department about Dover's 2025 Land Use Chapter update to the Master Plan. Bassegio explains that this critical chapter, one of two required by the state, hasn't been updated since 2014 and encompasses much more than just land use, including demographics, economic development, housing, and community character.The city is working with Resilience Planning and Design, the same consultant from the previous update, who has completed an existing conditions summary showing that Dover's growth has been consistent and sustainable, matching earlier projections well. The steering committee includes diverse representation from the Planning Board, City Council, public members, Open Lands Committee, Industrial and Business Development Authority, and Community Housing Needs Committee.Parker and Bassegio discuss Dover's approach of updating Master Plan chapters in "bite-sized chunks" rather than comprehensive overhauls, which allows for focused expertise and community engagement. They note the connectivity between the recently updated Vision Chapter and this Land Use Chapter, with the vision serving as "pillars" and land use as the "foundation."The project is currently in the outreach phase, with the existing conditions report available on the city website. Public engagement will intensify over the summer through surveys and educational opportunities. A draft chapter is expected in fall 2025, with Planning Board review scheduled for October-November. Bassegio emphasizes the importance of educated public participation in this strategic planning process.

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas that traps energy far more efficiently than carbon dioxide. Reduction of methane emissions is thus essential to slowing climate change, and livestock are a major source of these emissions. Dr. Phil Cardoso talks with Dr. Alex Hristov of Penn State University about nutritional strategies for mitigating production of methane by dairy cattle. They discuss the effectiveness of several different feed additives at reducing methane emissions and their effects on DMI and milk production.Links to papers and other sources mentioned in this episodeHristov et al. 2022.

The Land Use Bylaw is the rule book that regulates development on private land in the city and the last time it was comprehensively reviewed and rewritten was 1986. The Land Use Bylaw Renewal project is an opportunity to reflect on how far we have come as a city and establish regulations to shape the future of Lethbridge. This presentation will examine how the Land Use Bylaw shapes where we live, work, and play, and how the new Land Use Bylaw will be created. This is a great opportunity to ask any land use-related questions and share your past experiences and ideas for the future. Speakers: Genesis Molesky and Ross Kilgour Genesis works as a community planner with the City of Lethbridge and has 8 years of experience in land use planning. She completed her undergraduate studies in urban and regional planning at the University of Saskatchewan. In her role with the City of Lethbridge, she works on all levels of long-range planning projects from guiding parcel-specific redevelopment proposals to developing neighbourhood and city-wide planning policy documents. Ross earned his degree in Urban & Regional Planning in Edinburgh, Scotland. He then worked in London, England, first as a planner for the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea before moving to the private sector with Firstplan Ltd. After immigrating, Ross joined the City of Lethbridge where he is a Senior Community Planner, focusing on the redevelopment of older neighbourhoods and the City's heritage program. Ross' passions in urbanism include sustainability, equity, planning/zoning reform, and enabling walkable neighbourhoods.

As renewable power grows, land use decisions will influence its environmental impact. --- Decarbonizing the electric grid will require a dramatic expansion of renewable energy by mid-century, and significantly more land dedicated to clean power. But where and how that buildout occurs will shape whether the environmental benefits of renewables are fully realized or come at a high cost to ecosystems, farmland, and communities. Grace Wu of the Spatial Climate Solutions Lab at UC Santa Barbara and Jonathan Thompson, research director at Harvard Forest, examine the tension between rapid renewable energy expansion and conscientious land use. Wu, who has co-authored recent reports on the environmental impacts of clean energy siting policies, explores strategies for minimizing impacts while ensuring energy remains reliable and affordable. Thompson, whose research quantifies the effects of land use on forest ecosystems, discusses the push-and-pull dynamic unfolding in Massachusetts, where solar development has resulted in real losses of forests and farmland, and where new siting models are emerging. The two also explore how incentives and regulations influence land use decisions, and how policy can reduce land impacts while supporting clean power development. Grace Wu is an assistant professor in the Environmental Studies program at the University of California Santa Barbara and leads the university’s Spatial Climate Solutions Lab. Jonathan Thompson is senior ecologist and research director at Harvard Forest.

In this week's episode of then & now, we present a recording of a recent panel discussion focusing on L.A. wildfires past, present, and future. This program is part of the “Why History Matters” series presented by the UCLA Meyer and Renee Luskin Department of History—a series dedicated to the belief that historical knowledge is an indispensable, and often missing, ingredient in public debate.”Why History Matters: L.A. Wildfires Past, Present, and Future,” brought experts together to explore how historical and indigenous perspectives can reshape our understanding of wildfires, especially in light of the devastating Los Angeles County fires in January 2025. The discussion, anchored in the Fowler Museum at UCLA's “Fire Kinship: Southern California Native Ecology and Art” exhibition, interrogates prevailing narratives that frame fire solely as a destructive force, instead foregrounding indigenous epistemologies that recognize fire as a vital ecological process and a generational resource. Professors Hitoshi Abe, Gerald Clarke, Jr., and Char Miller distinguish three primary drivers of contemporary wildfire crises: climate change, fire suppression policies, and patterns of urban expansion into fire-prone landscapes. To more effectively mitigate and adapt to the escalating risks posed by wildfires, these panelists discuss ways to integrate traditional ecological knowledge with contemporary land management and urban policy.Moderator:Stephen Aron is the Calvin and Marilyn Gross Director and President of the Autry Museum of the American West. A specialist in the history of frontiers, borderlands, and the American West, Dr. Aron holds degrees from Amherst College (B.A.) and the University of California, Berkeley (M.A., Ph.D.).Panelists:Hitoshi Abe is a Professor in the Department of Architecture and Urban Design at the University of California, Los Angeles. Professor Abe is currently the director of Paul I. and Hisako Terasaki Center for Japanese Studies and holds the Terasaki Chair for contemporary Japanese study. In 2017, he established xLAB, an international think tank initiative that examines architecture's elastic boundaries and considers new possibilities through interdisciplinary collaboration in the study of the future built environment.Gerald Clarke Jr. is a Professor in the Department of Ethnic Studies and Special Advisor to the Chancellor on Native American Relations at the University of California, Riverside. He is an enrolled member of the Cahuilla Band of Indians and lives on the Cahuilla Indian Reservation. Gerald oversees the Clarke family cattle ranch and remains heavily involved in Cahuilla culture. Char Miller is the W.M. Keck Professor of Environmental Analysis and History at Pomona College. His teaching and research reflect his fascination with all things environmental. Classes on U.S. environmental history, water in the U.S. West, and public lands management, like those on urbanization and the interplay between the natural and built landscapes, have deeply informed his writing.

Earth Day is April 22nd. In honor of our watery planet we revisit a land-centric episode this week on World Ocean Radio. What About the Land? 40% of the planet is used for farming and livestock, often degraded by unsustainable or destructive practices. Coupled with coastal, wetland and reclaimed land development in the name of urban expansion, we are fast-approaching a tipping point. What are we to do? Are we destined to repeat the mistakes of the past? Or do we possess the collective will to develop creative solutions for repair, redesign and reconstruction for our 21st century transportation, supply, and municipal needs? World Ocean Radio: 5-minute weekly insights in ocean science, advocacy, education, global ocean issues, challenges, marine science, policy, and solutions.

Greg Phillips, co-founding partner of the Houston-based law firm Phillips Kaiser, joins the Soil Sisters to discuss the challenges of preserving family land. Greg's rural upbringing in East Texas and the difficulties faced by generational landowners inspired his commitment to helping those families with limited financial resources find solutions. This discussion dives into the challenges of succession planning, heirs' property issues, maintaining family land, and the newly launched East Texas Heirs Property Initiative. The conversation emphasizes the importance of keeping family land intact and out of the box thinking to build generational wealth.TIME STAMPS:00:00 Welcome to the Soil Sisters Podcast00:25 Meet Greg Phillips01:14 Greg's East Texas Roots03:53 The Importance of Succession Planning04:48 Greg's Journey into Land Ownership13:05 Alternative Land Uses and Opportunities20:09 The East Texas Heirs Property Initiative27:14 Land Utilization for Generational Wealth28:08 Innovative Land Use Programs29:45 Building Infrastructure for Landowners31:18 Nonprofit and Private Sector Collaboration34:47 Hemp Production and Industrial Uses44:02 Getting Involved and Next Steps 

Jake talks about a quintessential American neighborhood, open carry people, and forgotten parcels of land outside cities.

As a “dirt lawyer,” Don Pinto's cases typically involve one party that wants to do something in real estate, and another party trying to stop it. Whether coastal erosion or view obstruction with residential homeowners, or developers seeking to build new commercial or residential property, disputes end up in court if he can't help his clients come to terms sooner. Each day on the job looks different, from delving into historical records for title disputes to navigating complex cases involving difficult expert witness and judges who cannot help get into the weeds on a very specialized area of law. Don also talks about how the business of real estate law has changed as land values increase, and the unexpected downsides of transparency in law firm compensation—where open financials can breed tension and rivalry among colleagues. Don is a graduate of Suffolk University Law School.This episode is hosted by Kyle McEntee.Mentioned in this episode:Learn more about Vermont LawLearn more about Rutgers LawLearn more about Rutgers LawAccess LawHub today!

Solar farms managed for nature can benefit birds more than intensively farmed arable land. Research by the RSPB and the University of Cambridge looked at two types of solar farms in the East Anglian Fens. Those with mixed habitats - with hedgerows, no grass cutting or grazing sheep had a greater number and diversity of flowering plants and birds than intensively farmed arable land, or solar farms which were intensively managed.As England consults on its new land use framework we find out how Scotland's land use strategy's been working. It was first published in 2011 and is updated every five years. We speak to a policy manager at NFU Scotland to find out how it's affected farmers and crofters on the ground.Regenerative agriculture or regen ag, is something that's discussed a lot, and it's a term creeping into the marketing jargon of food businesses - so what exactly is meant by it? Presenter = Charlotte Smith Producer = Rebecca Rooney

England's Land Use Framework is out to consultation. We speak to the academic who brought groups of farmers together to speak to Defra officials as they developed the policy. We also consider what impact the framework might have on big renewable projects in future - like one in East Anglia. The proposed solar development in East Pye in South Norfolk covers 2,700 acres in ten different locations, Local residents who object to the scheme have set up their own group called Block East Pye. They say they are not Nimbys but that the current plans will directly impinge on residents and wildlife. Food prices are up and driving inflation. The Consumer Price Index or CPI is up 3% in the year to January. However some basics have gone up by more: butter up by 18%, eggs by 4% and beef up 5%. What does this mean for farmers, who often tell us that they're not being paid enough for the food they produce? We ask an expert from the Royal Agricultural University whether price rises mean more money for farmers.Presenter = Charlotte Smith Producer = Rebecca Rooney

Farming leaders have said they left a much-anticipated meeting with the Treasury with their blood "boiling", claiming the Government has "shut the door" on any rethink of planned changes to inheritance tax on farms. It follows months of protests over plans for inherited agricultural assets worth more than a million pounds to be taxed at 20% from April next year.MPs have been debating calls to ban bottom trawling in England's Marine Protected Areas. Bottom trawling is a method of fishing where weighted nets are dragged along the seabed to gather things like scallops, sole and plaice. And a working group has been set up by the Food, Farming and Countryside Commission to discuss how a Land Use Framework for Northern Ireland might be developed and implemented. We meet one of the group members to discuss how much difference it could make.Presented by Steffan Messenger Produced by Heather Simons

The majority of the UK's peatlands could be at risk of drying out in the next 40-50 years because of climate change - according to a new study from scientists at the Universities of Exeter, Manchester and Derby. Healthy, wet peatlands are seen as part of the solution to climate change because they soak up planet-heating carbon dioxide - UK peatlands currently store an estimated 3.2 billion tonnes of carbon. But where they dry out, they become a problem, because they can then release that stored carbon back into the atmosphere.There are a lot of things we want from the land of course - food production, green energy, housing, space for nature - and often these things are seen as being in competition with one another. We visit a farm where many different types of land use have been integrated so they can work hand in hand.And tree planting is something else that faces criticism for taking land out of food production. But in agroforestry systems, trees are planted alongside livestock or crops.

This week’s episode of then & now is the first in a series examining one of the most powerful and destructive natural disasters in U.S. history, the Los Angeles wildfires. Joined by Professor Emeritus at Arizona State University Stephen Pyne, one of the country’s leading thinkers about fire, we discuss the history of urban fire to understand what is unfolding in Los Angeles—where lives, communities, histories, and large swaths of nature are being destroyed before our eyes. Informed by his wide-ranging perspective on fire management, Stephen situates the L.A. wildfires within a broader historical perspective. He describes the current era as the Pyrocene, the age of the Fire.  He suggests that while nuisance fires have decreased, we now face dire conditions worsened by factors such as climate change, land use, and the burning of fossil fuels—all of which highlight the need for a fundamental reorganization of our lives. To conclude, he stresses the importance of avoiding the conditions that cause massive destruction, especially the burning of fossil fuels, and advocates for a thoughtful reassessment of our relationship with fire that minimizes the risk of future destructive events.Stephen Pyne is an Emeritus Professor of Life Sciences at Arizona State University.  He spent 15 seasons with the North Rim Longshots, a Grand Canyon National Park fire crew. Out of those seasons emerged a scholarly interest in the history and management of fire, with major surveys for America, Australia, Canada, Europe (including Russia), and the Earth. He has written 40 books, mostly on the history and management of wildland and rural fire, including a multi-volume fire history of the U.S. and its regions since 1960 (University of Arizona Press).  Further ReadingHuman use of fire has produced an era of uncontrolled burning: Welcome to the Pyrocene2025 Los Angeles Fires

Waterfront property comes at a premium in NYC. It's a finite resource that has its fair share of zoning challenges when owners are looking to develop property. Since the early 1990's, regulations have been in place that affect the size and location of waterfront development, as well as the amount and quality of required public open space that must be provided in waterfront development. Listen to Real Estate and Land Use partner, Robert Huberman, and Vinh Van Vo, planning and development specialist, discuss the specifics of zoning for waterfront development in New York City.

The way we build our cities is largely driven by zoning. The decisions about land use are made at city hall. But have these rules helped to create urban sprawl and economic inequality? What are some zoning reforms that can transform city planning into a force for social good, enabling cities to become more sustainable, walkable and socially just? Sara Bronin talks about her latest book, Key to the City: How Zoning Shapes Our World.

Tropical Forest Alliance executive director Jack Hurd and Gustavo Idigoras, president of the Argentinian Edible Oils Association, join Innovation Forum's Ian Welsh to discuss the critical role of land use in addressing climate change, particularly in light of recent regulations such as the European Union Deforestation Regulation. They explore how agricultural practices and corporate responsibility can align with sustainability goals, emphasising the potential for cross-sector collaboration to drive meaningful change.

Co-chairs of Herrick's Sports Law Group, Irwin Kishner and Dan Etna, along with the chair of Herrick's Land Use and Zoning Group, Mitch Korbey, discuss the financial, environmental, procedural and community considerations in the building and development of stadium and mixed-use projects.Engaging in these projects entails many steps from identifying the land, to obtaining support and consensus of the community, accounting for the availability of public transportation to assessing the environmental impact. Mitch discusses many of the procedural steps involved in the often-multijurisdictional approval process for stadium projects from permits to the public review process to environmental impact reviews. Dan and Irwin touch on the financing implications for these projects including conventional financings, tax exempt opportunities, as well as concession revenues and media rights. Listen to how these veterans of stadium development discuss how it can be economically and socially transformative for a community.Music by Michelangelo Sosnowitz

Fathom The Good Homeschooling - https://fathomthegood.com/ Marlo Oaks and Policy Expert Margaret Byfield SENATOR Kamala Harris co-sponsored a bill to enact 30 x 30 in 2020. Will this be a focus of her administration? What is 30 x 30? It is a massive land grab by the US government in connection with the United Nations' 2030 agenda. Six days into office, the Biden Administration signed an unauthorized Executive Order to carry out 30 x 30. The US Government, Land Trusts, and several billionaires are buying up the land in the United States. Why? Website - www.cwicmedia.com
