Types of planning affected the different aspects of life, so that new social conceptions such as social welfare, life quality, social justice and environmental quality are presented in the realm of planning and community development, which is affected by requirements and new knowledge. Also importance and role of city life quality in all aspects of life got special value and play important role in the environmental health of urban life as the most important human settlements (where the many people strongly influenced by the prevailing conditions of their environment). Studies of life quality in developing countries, especially in Iran are scarce. Therefore the base of life quality measuring in old texture of region 9 of municipality of Tehran is satisfaction with the quality of life in view of urban residents. Research method in this study is survey and deductive - inductive method. In fact by assessment of life quality literature considered factors extracted (deductive method) and then using inductive method (questionnaire gathering), aspects of life satisfaction in view of settlements are gathered and then assessed using Pierson correlation analysis techniques, one sample Kolmogorov - Smimov Test, one sample T test, multi variable regression and path analyze. Results show that satisfaction of physical, social, economic and environmental features are significant and imply the low quality in these factors. So that transportation, settlement, city rules, recreational access have the most effect on the life satisfaction rate in the old texture of region 9 of municipality of Tehran.

certainly, the process of socio-economic distribution of resources communities, on the approach to the issues of program planners. In the meantime, explanation and understanding of current patterns of resource distribution, the first step in understanding the distribution is the dominant patterns. Of course, if the specific facts of each community-based knowledge, scientific methodology and is based on applications, can lead to redistribute resources equitably. This study is based on this idea, has been developed. Unequal distribution of resources and social inequalities result not only of the most important challenges in developing countries such as Iran, but also the source of many economic problems, including the increasing intensification of rural-urban migration, poverty and social ills are. Equitable distribution of resources, including health care facilities not only necessary, but also for the health of communities is vital, as the slogan and the centrality of the United Nations Human Development Report (HDR, 2011) as well as: health, the most important is the wealth of nations. This article examines this issue using models VIKOR and SAW, rankings and analysis of distribution patterns of health services in the city of East Azarbaijan province pays. Based on this research, population distribution and the distribution of health services (based on the results of entropy) were evaluated, as well as the correlation between these two variables (size of the population and access to health services) in the city East Azarbaijan Spearman model is used. The results of the coefficient of entropy distribution of the population (0.73583) indicates that the distribution of population in the city proper, but the results of two VIKOR and SAW specifies the distribution of health services in the city of this province is not fair. As well as the correlation between population distribution and ranking city in VIKOR and SA W models have been evaluated. The results of the Spearman correlation coefficient indicates that health facilities and services are based on the distribution of the population are not distributed in a balanced way.

The evaluation and performance management are one of special topics in strategic human resource Management and useful tool to improve the performance of employees and organizations is considered. If the performance management to requirements and prerequisites the organization is designed and implemented could be part of the problems identified and provide practical solutions to solve them. the main objective of this research is measurement of doorod citizens satisfaction of municipality in urban areas. In this study, the satisfaction of citizens in three important indicators of socio - cultural, technical and construction services which have a direct impact on quality of life in the city and citizen satisfaction is the result of the case is being investigated. Statistical community is doorod city of residents in four areas and the sample size of 375 individuals were determined using Cochran formula. The method sampling fits total surface area of the accident. Method the study survey using a questionnaire. The application software SPSS to analyze the data obtained from field research and GIS software is used to map the output. The study research indicates that moderate to high levels of citizen satisfaction and satisfaction among regions and different indicators. The highest level of satisfaction in District 3 and district 1 is the lowest level of satisfaction. Also among the parameters evaluated technical indicators construction highest satisfaction rate and social indicators - culture has the lowest level of satisfaction. Finally, to improve municipal performance The guidelines and recommendations are provided.

Nowadays we cannot assume cities without the existence of green spaces as the breathing lungs in the body of cities. Due to the environmental problems and other problems originating from growing development, allocating more and more areas to parks and green spaces is inevitable .. This issue is one of the most important factors contributing to the development of social communities and thus it is considered as indicator of the degree of the development of towns. This means that if one city lacks enough green spaces, we cannot regard it as health-giving or effective in the well-being of its citizens. This study is an applied one that has adapted a descriptive-analytical approach. We employed Geographical Information System (GIS), Index Overlap models (10) and Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP) to analyze the location and distribution of green spaces within Najaf Abad, located in Isfahan. To this end the researcher prepared a comprehensive bulk of information about the location of parks as well as information about the percentage of citizens living in particular areas and their access to parks. The analysis was done on the basis of information obtained from the relevant standards to identify deprived areas and finally to prepare an acceptable pattern to optimize the distribution of green spaces. The results showed that the distributional pattern and the location of parks in Najaf Abad is not compatible with the needs of people, so it is strongly felt to construct other parks in suitable locations in the future.

Increasing population growth in urban areas has led to many problems for the citizens and environmental pollution and noise are the most irnportant problems. One of the most effective ways to reduce these problems is to use public transportation. Organization of park and rides and terminals as the responsible organization for management and exploitation of terminals for citizens, can play an important role in this. Respecting citizens' rights and enhancing the quality of services by these organizations will encourage citizens to use the services of these organizations. This article examines legal relationship between citizen and organizations of terminals and park rides in Tehran. Research method is descriptive - analytical, required data was collected through questionnaires and were analyzed using regression test and T test in SPSS software. Case study was west and south terminals of Tehran and findings showed that citizens' respected organization's rights, but the organization didn't respect citizens' rights and the overall, level of public awareness of citizens' about their rights and duties towards organization of terminals and park and rides is normal and there is a positive and meaningful relationship between citizens' awareness and dependent variable of education. The higher the education level is, the higher their knowledge and awareness will be. But there is no relation between age and awareness. Finally some suggestions are given for increasing public awareness about laws and regulations and citizens' rights and duties toward organization of terminals and park rides.

Social development of the community is a way of life Governing and raising public life through the creation of favorable conditions and optimization in the areas of poverty reduction, nutrition, health, housing, employment, education How to spend their leisure time. Welfare and social development should lead to more population satisfied with their lives. Social development is defined, an interdisciplinary and cross-sectional area of the material and social well-being for people at all levels of society. On the other hand, social development dimension of development that involves human interaction, institutions and social relationships with each other and wanted to emphasize loves to focus on them. This paper aims to determine and compare the levels of socio - cultural of Kohgiluyeh V A Boyerahmad. Statistics and indicators used in this study are taken from the 2011 Statistical Yearbook. Type of applied research comparative analysis methods and models used technique is Vikor. Preliminary results indicate that the criteria considered for the grading of the city, the city Gachsaran, Bahmaei, Kohgiluyeh, Dena, Boyerahmad rank first to fifth.

Satisfaction and gratification are the result of a perception one has of his/her society, based on positive environmental evaluation and personal experience. Sociability and capability in the creation of required opportunities for social interactions are of the most important characteristics of urban squares. Raising the quality of constructed spaces results in the citizens' satisfaction with them, and thus increases social interactions in the squares. For the aim of qualitative evaluation, this research identified the factors affecting citizens' satisfaction by making comparison between Iran and the West's experiences to lead urban planners and decision-makers towards the enhancement of urban environment, and thus improve citizens' satisfaction and social interactions. It is a descriptive- analytical study, in which 440, over 7 years, citizens of naghshe-e Jahan and Baharestan squares (in Iran), and del Campo and Navona squares (in Italy) were selected. Statistical methods were based on the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and The Kruskal- Wallis test. Based on the results from CFA, out of the 31 satisfaction factors, seven factors (namely anatomical-social, physical-median, management, anatomical-sidewall, visual-aesthetic, accessibility-spatial, performance-vitality) are extractable (KMO=0.76, Bartlett's test score of 4548.55, df=45, P<0.001). In general, 55.48% of the overall variance of citizens' satisfaction is predictable. The reliability of each factor, based on Cronbach' s alpha, ranged from 0.55 to 0.84. This value was 0.82 for the overall questionnaire. Based on the results from Kruskal- Wallis test, the rating mean of the accessibility- spatial, anatomical-sidewall, and anatomical-median factors in del Campo square, visual-aesthetic and performance-vitality factors in Naghsh-e-Jahan square, and psychological-social and management factors in Navona square were higher than others (P<0.01).

Assessment of the distribution of the balance in the relationship between urban amenities to bed is essential. The basic constituent of matter that makes u\, "the distribution of services and facilities in the metropolitan area the city" is. To address these problem, as different methods of data collection, documentation, library and athletics and in the analysis and judgments used in the data analysis and numerical taxonomy has been enjoying. Using these methods, the first 60 index, which 35 of them assessed using a questionnaire, and 25 as well as the information and documents referred to government agencies in the city of Shiraz were collected, checked and then using factor analysis data A total of 15 factors or hidden index is derived. Taxonomy analysis of the findings in this study indicate that the cultural and historical context of border zones of South, East and northeast of Shiraz has a low level of development between different areas of the city and there is a huge difference in terms of development. According to the study, based on three factors can greatly reduce the differences in development of these three factors are as follows: the first factor, the accessibility to sports and health infrastructure devices (such as clinics and hospitals) and the economy (such as banks). Second, family welfare component, such as income, employment and empowerment of families with the help of supportive institutions and the third factor, the quality of urban infrastructure such as asphalt and water.

among the objectives of neighborhood management scheme has been operating a central area. indicators of the effectiveness and accountability of the more functional areas of management involved in the formation of the desired pattern And. hypothesis suggests that a significant relationship between councils and the participation of citizen participation in urban management and urban problems are solved. Multivariate regression analysis also showed that the variables acting on the model, 52 percent of the dependent variable to explain. Significant alpha level less than 01/0 the relationship between development, social welfare and monitoring the management of the neighborhood in significant alpha level of less than 01/0. Therefore, it is necessary that the institution in strengthening its social approach, with various measures based on the results in attracting and promoting the participation of citizens.

With the introduction of the idea of sustainable development, the challenges of social, economic, physical and environmental in cities, more than any other time, was considered. Urban growth and the subsequent increase of the urban population, in addition to, social and economic problems, with irreparable environmental damage, have followed, So that the long-term future of cities, due to unrecoverable costs on the environment, has been compromised. Therefore, urban planners, to achieve sustainable development, pay to designs in keeping with the environment, that eco city is sample of them. Isfahan, as the third metropolis of the country, despite having a natural potential to becomeeco city, such cities that it's increasing growth can cause many challenges. For this reason, this study is trying to find a suitable area for the implementation of ecological patterns and design in keeping with the sustainable development. Method of this study is Descriptive- analytical. Use factor and cluster analysis in spss software, toanalyze andPrioritization of the 14 areas of Isfahan. To achieve to this goal is used Sustainable development indicators with the approach of eco city, such as environmental, transportation, social and physical indicators. The results indicate that among 14 are as of Isfahan city, region 12 has the highest potential, Region 4 medium potential, region 9 has less potential and other regions of the city (78% of the areas) are disadvantaged in terms of having ecological indicators. Between having green spaces in urban areas and the potential of areas to become eco city, there is a little positive relationship. So the only having green space in areas, are not enough to design eco city, but social, economic, and physical infrastructure in site Should be at an acceptable level.
