<br/><br/> Industrial growth promotes economic development but also  creates land-use and environmental problems in a city. In the past  three decades, Taiwan has experienced a high rate of industrial  and economic growth. However, rapid industrialization and urbaniza tion have brought a number of problems and this study examines one  such problem: industrial development in relation to land-use and  pollution in Kaohsiung city.  This paper will first overview the historic development of  industrial development, the existing conditions and the developing  trends in the city. It will then use the screening matrix to select  the potential industries of the city, and evaluate the suitability  of the existing industrial estates in order to upgrade and improve  the industrial structure, land-use conditions and environmental  quality.  The major problems of urban planning industrial zones are  mixed and incompatible land-use, inadequate infrastructure and  management and environmental impacts. It is a difficult and  sensitive job to decide which strategies should be adopted in those  industrial zones. Thus this research focuses attention on the  issues and problems of the urban planning industrial zones in  central areas of the city.  Finally, strategies and measures are recommended which can be  helpful for land use planning and industrial development in the  future .
