Odo of Châtillon-sur-Marne born 1035, Châtillon-sur-Marne, or Lagery, or Lagny, Champagne, France died July 29, 1099, Rome Pope (1088-99). The prior of a Cluniac monastery, he was made cardinal by Pope Gregory VII, whose reforms he furthered. Elected pope in 1088, Urban secured his authority against the antipope Clement III and strengthened the role of the papacy in the reform movement. He called for the First Crusade at the Council of Clermont (1095) in response to the appeal of Alexius I Comnenus, promoted the union of the Eastern and Western churches, and supported the Christian reconquest of Spain from the Moors. adj. orig.

This election of an Italian appeased the Romans, who wanted to end the French-dominated Avignon papacy, but his harsh reforms soon angered the French cardinals, prompting them to elect the antipope Clement VII, beginning the Western Schism (1378). Europe was divided in its loyalties, and Urban warred with Naples when its queen backed Clement. Strife over the schism reduced the Papal States to anarchy, and Urban's death may have been from poisoning. adj. urban climate Urban II urban planning Urban VI; located in or characteristic of a city or city life; "urban property owners"; "urban affairs"; "urban manners" relating to or concerned with a city or densely populated area; "urban sociology"; "urban development; situated in or dwelling in a city; 1 Usually refers to areas with populations of 5,000 or more 2 Describes any area that includes a municipality or other built-up place which is appropriate in the judgement of the U S Secretary of Transportation, for a public transportation system to serve commuters or others in the locality taking into consideration the local patterns and trends of urban growth; The Census Bureau defines "urban" for the 1990 census as comprising all territory, population, and housing units in urbanized areas and in places of 2,500 or more persons outside urbanized areas; relating to or concerned with a city or densely populated area; "urban sociology"; "urban development"; related to a city or densely populated area; Peculiar to the human environment, as contrasted with that found normally in wild animals; An area is considered urban if it has a population of 2500 or more for Federal-Aid purposes; >> A term used to describe a property's location Urban properties have paved access roads and streets, they are close to neighboring properties and have support services less than 10 miles away Urban is also a term used to describe a property located in a city or town; of, relating to, or located in a city; relating to or concerned with a city or densely populated area; "urban sociology"; "urban development; Urban is defined alternately as urbanized areas (i e , places of 50,000 or more in population including surrounding, densely-settled territory) or, outside of urbanized areas, places of 2,500 or more in population Data reported are for 1990; A city or town; Use or harvesting of marine and coastal resources pertaining to developed or built up areas; Of or belonging to a city or town; as, an urban population; A Main Inventory Table field which designates inventories without agricultural tools, or with a separate agricultural operation, or with minimal livestock An urban inventory is identified by a null in the rural field; The built-up, non-rural area in a region; Of, in, or constituting a city; In architecture, the functions and forms of the city; anything related to, or characteristic of, the city; of or belonging to a city or town; city; metropolitan

urban planning: Programs pursued as a means of improving the urban environment and achieving certain social and economic objectives. Evidence of urban planning can be found in the ruins of ancient cities, including orderly street systems and conduits for water and sewage. During the Renaissance, European city areas were consciously planned to achieve circulation of the populace and provide fortification against invasion. Such concepts were exported to the New World, where William Penn, in founding the city of Philadelphia, developed the standard gridiron plan the laying out of streets and plots of land adaptable to rapid change in land use. Modern urban planning and redevelopment arose in response to the disorder and squalor of the slums created by the Industrial Revolution. The urban planner best known for his transformation of Paris was Georges-Eugène Haussmann. City planners imposed regulatory laws establishing standards for housing, sanitation, water supply, sewage, and public health conditions, and introduced parks and playgrounds into congested city neighbourhoods. In the 20th century, zoning the regulation of building activity according to use and location came to be a key tool for city planners. See also Pierre-Charles L'Enfant
