Planners have a critical role in recovery. Places struck by disaster—including municipal governments, neighborhoods, and business districts—look to planners to develop plans and policies to facilitate rapid and effective reconstruction. Communities struck by disaster need processes for deliberation and engagement to decide how to rebuild or whether to relocate, and they need planners—working with them at multiple scales—to help them to do it.
Disaster recovery poses difficult challenges to planners, however. Although there is a growing literature of individual recovery cases, few comparative studies exist, and few guidebooks tell planners how to do recovery. Only recently has a literature of recovery theory begun to grow. One common characteristic of recovery processes is the trade-off between “speed and deliberation,” between restoration of what was lost and building back better, stronger, greener, and more equitably. Many authors have described the paradoxical challenges of trying to achieve many of these goals at the same time. Olshansky, Hopkins, and Johnson (2012) attribute challenges of planning for disaster recovery to the phenomenon of post-disaster “time compression.”
