Abstract

The waiver concept was developed to assist in meeting the goal stated above. The concept defined was simply, to remove administrative barriers to the planning, coordination, implementation and integration of new or modified urban strategies designed to improve the quality of life for residents of plan variation cities. The chief executive of the planned variation city is most important in both the development and implementation of the concept. All waiver requests must be channeled to the various federal departments through the plan variation city's chief executive. Not only would this provide the federal agencies with a single focal point for receiving and transmitting information regarding the waiver requests but would insure that the chief executive is both knowledgeable and supportive of all requests emanating from the city which can enhance the achievement of the overall city strategy.
