Most post 2005 or so ARPs are pretty useful in enabling development (think Beltline or Hillhurst/Sunnyside, Brentwood Station ARP, East Village). Older ones (which there are many) were often put in place to try and keep things the same, although many of these areas (think Bankview) change in spite of the ARP, not because of it.

Some of them identify necessary infrastructure, which end up going through the capital budget prioritization processes.

They are basically guiding statutory policy, as CaptainYooh says, to supplement the land use by-law for the local context. They are all definitely not created equal.
