When the amendment is passed, it should improve the situation to some degree and increase cooperation and integration of plans among state agencies responsible for urban development, especially in terms of roads, highways and infrastructure development and planning.

If such basic obstacles are overcome, planners would be able to proceed to tackle the more challenging task such as how to make the city more ecologically-friendly or the known concepts of “smart growth”.
