Assess the learner’s ability to design a comprehensive policy plan for a mid-sized city aimed at reducing socioeconomic and racial segregation. The plan should integrate zoning reform, inclusionary and preservation-focused affordable housing strategies, targeted public transit improvements, equitable K–12 education policies, and fiscal measures (taxes, subsidies, financing tools), and must include stakeholder engagement, an implementation timeline, expected social and spatial outcomes, and clear short-, medium-, and long-term evaluation metrics; justify trade-offs and feasibility considerations for equity and political practicality.
