Housing, employment, accessibility, comfort, and safety are the key concerns for the dwellers. To achieve this, a careful planning must be made. This balances the growth of the community with the need to protect the environment. Community planning is a very essential part in developing communities or towns. Lack of planning often leads to chaos, disorganized, inefficiency, and worst it may be left by the dwellers leaving the city abandoned. It may also deprive a community to have its own identity that makes them unique. Careful planning of a community also ensures the people’s safety and comfort, by arranging the buildings in grid plans to have a seamless flow of traffic, then adding diagonal streets passing through the central square to reduce travel times. Planning the community improves the people’s quality of life, balancing the people’s needs, the resources, and anticipating the growth of population will be effective when there are ordinances and patterns to be followed. Planning also considers the future development of the community while maintaining a heathy environment to produce a self-sustaining community.
