Abstract
In order to support the decision-making process related to the reduction of land consumption into the urban regeneration interventions, the present research has the aim to define and propose a goal programming-based model that can be adopted for the negotiation phases of public and private subjects involved. In particular, the proposed model can provide for a range of feasible scenarios that, according to the specific purposes of the Public Administration, can be implemented in order to achieve the financial, environmental and social level of sustainability targets set by the Agenda 2030. In this way even the private entrepreneur can verify his personal convenience to participate in the investment. Furthermore, the possibility provided by the model to choose a different combination of urban parameters that define the convenience of interventions before their implementation, could reduce the increasingly significant problem of badly concluded interventions, interrupted because they lack an effective ex ante evaluation.
Highlights
The rapid development of urban systems has become one of the most faced challenges worldwide
This complex condition is known as the “compact city paradox”, due to the conflicting situations which occur into urban dynamics and the difficulty that arises from managing all the specific interests of public and private subjects involved [4]
The Goal Programming (GP) technique has been widely applied to address and manage the sustainable urban development decisions, due to its capacity to provide for compromise solutions that takes into account several typology of criteria and the possibility to aggregate often conflicting needs and interests of the subjects considered
Summary
The rapid development of urban systems has become one of the most faced challenges worldwide. It is clear that environmental, social and economic issues are firmly dependent on each other and the variation of one of them born in the cities can have a positive or negative influence on the others [2,3] This complex condition is known as the “compact city paradox”, due to the conflicting situations which occur into urban dynamics and the difficulty that arises from managing all the specific interests of public and private subjects involved [4]. The Goal Programming (GP) technique has been widely applied to address and manage the sustainable urban development decisions, due to its capacity to provide for compromise solutions that takes into account several typology of criteria and the possibility to aggregate often conflicting needs and interests of the subjects considered. The main feature of an effective sustainable development strategy, is its ability to be scalable -with respect to the territorial context of application- and transversal according to the types of data analyzed and with a true methodology, so as to be able to guarantee its replicability by the decision-makers
