urban planning

Urban planning is the process of designing and regulating the use of land, resources, and infrastructure in urban areas to create sustainable, functional, and aesthetically pleasing environments. It involves a comprehensive approach that integrates various elements such as transportation, housing, public spaces, and services to meet the needs of the community.
At its core, urban planning aims to improve the quality of life for residents by ensuring that cities are well-organized and equipped to handle growth and change. This includes addressing issues such as traffic congestion, pollution, and access to amenities. Planners analyze demographic trends, economic factors, and environmental impacts to develop strategies that promote balanced development.

grebo

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.

Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
