Development Constraints
The
development_constraints table defines constraints to restrict development on parcels. Each row in the table defines a unique constraint. The Development Project Proposal Sampling Model (
DPPSM) generates proposals for a parcel using the constraint(s) and by selecting appropriate records from the
development_templates_table that will fit on the available land of the parcel. The DPPSM determines the applicable constraint(s) for a parcel by selecting a record in the development_constraints table based on the parcel's plan_type_id (not generic_land_use_type_id). A parcel may have a constraint for 'far' and/or 'units_per_acre'. Note that this table is substantially different than its gridcell counterpart due to the differences in the real estate models of these versions.

Required |
Description |
| constraint_id |
Integer |
Y |
A unique id for the constraint |
| constraint_type |
String |
Y |
The density measure for the constraint. The value must be either 'units_per_acre' for residential land or 'far' for nonresidential land. |
| generic_land_use_type_id |
Integer |
Y |
The id of the generic land use. |
| plan_type_id |
Integer |
Y |
The id of the plan_type |
| minimum |
Integer |
Y |
The minimum density allowed by the constraint |
| maximum |
Integer |
Y |
The maximum density allowed by the constraint |
