Abstract

This study was undertaken as a group research project at Case Institute of Technology, Cleveland, Ohio. The limits of the study are outlined and a conceptual model developed. A simulation model of a specific community, Mayfield Heights, Ohio, is constructed as an example of how the overall municipal simulation model can provide planning information. Three alternative land use policies described by the Mayor were programmed as input for this simulation model. Analysis of the results and recommendations are included as a part of the study.
