In this Utah-based study, we sought to identify the types of municipal employees responsible for physical activity policies, identify municipal ordinances that may influence physical activity, and determine local governments' intentions to implement policies. In 2001, we mailed a survey to all of the state's municipalities with the goal of measuring 6 physical activity domains: sidewalks, bicycle lanes, shared-use paths, work sites, greenways, and recreational facilities. Data from 74 municipalities revealed that planners made up a small proportion of municipal staff. Relative to cities experiencing slow or medium growth, high growth cities reported more ordinances encouraging physical activity. Physical activity policies can be monitored across municipalities. Moreover, evidence-based public health practice provides direction for limited staff and funding resources.
在这项基于犹他州的研究中，我们试图确定负责制定体育活动政策的市政雇员类型，找出可能影响体育活动的市政条例，并确定地方政府实施政策的意图。2001年，我们向该州所有市政当局邮寄了一份调查问卷，目的是衡量六个体育活动领域：人行道、自行车道、共享使用路径、工作场所、绿色通道和娱乐设施。来自74个市政当局的数据显示，规划人员在市政工作人员中所占比例较小。与增长缓慢或中等的城市相比，高增长城市报告的鼓励体育活动的条例更多。可以对各市政当局的体育活动政策进行监测。此外，循证公共卫生实践为有限的人员和资金资源提供了指导。
