<br />CONCLUSION
<br />This overview ofthe structure of cluster develop-
<br />ment is part of larger effort by the American
<br />Planning Association to develop model smart
<br />growth ordinances, including models that may
<br />be adapted by local govemments to implement
<br />special planning policies (e.g., multimodal
<br />transportation, affordable housing, etc.). As
<br />used in thiseffort, smart growth ordinances and
<br />development codes mean regulations intended
<br />to achieve a varietY of objectives (e.g., encourag.
<br />ing mixed uses, preserving open space and
<br />environmentally sensitive areas, providing a
<br />choice of housing types and transportation
<br />
<br />modes, and making the development review
<br />process more predictable). In addition, because
<br />smart growth ordinances provide more trans-
<br />portation options and more compact, mixed use
<br />development, they inevitably have public health
<br />implications; they encourage walking, bicycling,.
<br />ahd human interaction, with the potential to
<br />support more active, socially engaged lifestyles
<br />that result in better physical and mental health.
