Description:
Completely revised and expanded, this new edition is an invaluable guide for anyone involved in the planning and design of recreation and sport facilities and open spaces. It provides a solid introduction to this multifaceted topic and a wealth of practical information you can use to guide your efforts, whether you're planning a walking trail, professional sports arena, or other facility.
New and updated content in this edition includes the following:
-A new chapter on coastal recreation planning and management to help communities and developers locate and plan recreational facilities that support a variety of activities, promote safety, and use the natural beauty of the coast without damaging the environment.

-an overview of recreation open space legislation and official planning documents, plus open space templates to assist local, district, and regional people with early planning;
