Answer:

D. Agenda Setting, Policy Formulation, Policy Adoption, Policy Implementation

Explanation:

The correct order is the one above.

At first, the city council of Philadelphia set the agenda, bringing forward the issue of skateboarding and Love park to the discussion table.

Then, the city council formulated a policy: the total ban of skateboarding.

This policy was adopted by the council, by issuing an ordinance for this purpose.

Finally, the policy was actually implemented: the park was made less attractive for skateboarders.

The answer that correctly matches policy cycle steps with the events is:

D. Agenda Setting, Policy Formulation, Policy Adoption, Policy Implementation.

  • The agenda setting began when the city's council became worried that skateboarding was damaging Love Park.
  • Then they moved to formulate a policy which leads to a total ban on skateboarding.
  • A step further was taken to adopt the policy by enforcing the ordinance on the banning of skateboarding in all public parks.
  • This led to the rebuilding of Love Park to make it less attractive for skateboarding which is a process of the policy implementation.
