Policies, such as building height requirements, can affect urban sprawl.

A) True
B) False

A. True

Explanation:

"Urban sprawl" refers to the decentralization of the population from the central part of the city towards the suburban areas. Such situation has been considered an issue since many people prefer to live far from the city due to transportation improvements. It is said to cause loss of open space, heavy traffic or traffic congestion and segregation of races.

Policies such as "building height requirements" can affect urban sprawl. It means a fewer number of people will be able to live in the building, thereby lowering the population density. This becomes an obstacles to a more compact city, thus it can affect the urban sprawl.
