| Abstract | Abstract. This article intended to evaluate the extent of sustainability of the proposed land use in the Comprehensive Plan for Maragheh (Horizon 2018), used methods for development evaluation, and selected the appropriate criteria for these methods to evaluate the proposed suggestions regarding land use as a basic component of urban development. Considering the nature of the study, the comparative analytical method was employed. After a series of general evaluation criteria related to sustainable development and their appropriate sub-criteria were developed, indicators of sustainable development were used to evaluate and test the suggestions regarding land use. For this purpose, a hierarchical structure of indicators and sub-indicators was developed, the final weights and degrees of importance of the sub-indicators were determined based on the Delphi method and considering the views of urban development experts and, finally, the hierarchical analysis approach was used to obtain the degree of compatibility of the Plan with these criteria. Results of this research suggest various degrees of compatibility between the proposed land use in the Comprehensive Plan and the indicators of sustainable development. The maximum degree of attention to the sustainability of land use was paid in relation to transportation and warehousing and urban road network with values of 14.59 and 10.28, respectively, and the minimum to public sports arenas and administrative-law enforcement offices with values of 4.05 and 4.25, respectively. |
