Abstract

The bottom-up concept in sustainable development has been rooted deeply in nations around the world yet regarding the implementation of neighborhood unit there is to date no effective modus operandi. Hence, building objective neighborhood unit evaluation criteria, which serve as the foundation of expanding municipal sustainable development and reference for sustainable neighborhood unit development decision making for local governments, is an important issue. When observing the relevant factors of exercising sustainable development, the factors were found to be interdependent. This research began with performing factor screening with Fuzzy Delphi Method and proceeded with Analytic Network Process (ANP) to calculate criteria weighting, and therefore constructed neighborhood unit evaluation model under the concept of sustainability.
