    • 1.6 SCOPE OF STUDY
      This research focuses mainly on the impact of feasibility and viability appraisal on the development of capital projects in Owerri urban. Results and recommendations may not be used to generalise other Cities in Nigeria, as the researcher could not cover a wider scope due to financial and time constraints.
      Based on the findings of this study other possible researchable areas may include studies on the various effects of other aspects of recreational development such as property laws in Nigeria and property management and control.
      1.7 LIMITATION OF THE STUDY
      The only limitation faced by the researcher in the course of carrying out this study was the delay in getting data from the various respondents. Most respondents were reluctant in filling questionnaires administered to them due to their busy schedules and nature of their work. The researcher found it difficult to collect responses from the various respondents, and this almost hampered the success of this study.
      1.8 DEFINITION OF TERMS
      Definitions of terms serve as the dictionary of this research.  The terms are defined to enable the reader understand the research more clearly.
      Feasibility:  Erikson (2002) defined feasibility as an evaluation and analysis of the potential of the proposed project which is based on extensive investigation and research to give full comfort to the decisions makers.
      Viability: According to Simmons (2007),Viable or viability is the ability of a thing (a living organism, an artificial system, an idea, etc.) to maintain itself or recover its potentialities.
      Capital Project: this refers to long term investment requiring relatively large sums to acquire, develop, improve, and to maintain.
