Army Master Planning: An Analysis of Policy and Procedures
Abstract
This report contains a proposed comprehensive land use planning process for Army installations, along with a broad review of the theories, techniques, and history of master planning in general and an analysis of Army master planning. It addresses the following questions: (1) What tools are available to implement land use planning? (2) How does (should) the Army master planning process work? (3) Which regulations affect Army master planning? (4) What type of comprehensive land use planning implementation process will meet Army installations' needs, given the findings from the previous three questions? Based on the findings from the questions, the report has three recommendations. 1. Create a standard installation land use planning process, incorporating recent revisions to Army Regulation (AR) 210-20, Master planning for Army Installations, and replacing conflicting or obsolete standards with state-of- the-art planning techniques. 2. Assemble references from the many related ARs and guidance documents into one users' guide, to be used as a single reference for installation master planners and MACOM reviewers. An appendix includes a preliminary effort to list the applicable regulations. 3. At some future time, codify the related ARs into a subject-indexed code that reflects that standard land use planning process.
