(Redirected from Urban Growth Boundary). An urban growth boundary, or UGB, is a regional boundary, set in an attempt to control urban sprawl by mandating that the area inside the boundary be used for higher density urban development and the area outside be used for lower density development.
Urban areas are areas where many people live and work, resulting in very dense development. These are usually cities or the downtown areas of larger towns. The ground is mostly taken up by roads, sidewalks, buildings, and maybe small grassy areas.
