Planning for a Sustainable Level of Tourism Development: A Critical Analysis of Planning Processes with Respect to Tourism in the Town of St. Jacob's, Ontario.
This paper will present a critical analysis of a case study concerning the tourism planning process of one such local/regional tourist destination: St. Jacobs, Ontario. It will be argued that the planning process in St. Jacobs represents almost a textbook example of what not to do in terms of community planning for a local/regional tourist industry. After a general discussion of the players, the issues, and the processes in the St. Jacobs case, some of the more probable implications of the history of the planning process in the town will be outlined. Finally, an alternative model, that addresses the deficiencies of the given planning process in St. Jacobs, will be presented. 12 pgs. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
