Visual Quality - What is the Value of a View?

The estimated amenity value and implicit price of a forestland view can be valuable information in land use planning, zoning, and forest management.
This video explores real land management issues as it pertains to visual quality in two areas of Tennessee - the mountains of east TN and the rolling landscape and river bluffs just west of Nashville in middle TN.
Perspectives, specific regional/local issues, and potential management tools are discussed by professionals working in these areas. These professionals include regional and municipal planners and an urban resource forester.
