Quality assessment of government plans in developing rural settlements (Case Study: Dolatabad rural district in Jiroft County)

In recent years, the government has implemented several measures in the form of a rural guide plan and rural reconstruction-renovation plan for the development of rural settlements in different parts of the country. In this regard, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality of government measures in the development of rural housing in Dolatabad rural district in Jiroft County. This research is descriptive-analytical, in which the documentary method is used to review the research background and problem statement and a survey method is used to collect information related to government actions in the studied villages. In this regard, 345 households were calculated as the sample size, according to the number of households in villages having a rural guide plan or rural reconstruction-renovation plan, and by using the Cochran formula. Sampling of households was done to complete the questionnaires by simple random sampling. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive, inferential statistics and integrated AHP-Vikor model with Expert Choice, SPSS and ArcGIS software. According to the results of the research, the level of government executive-practical measures in rural reconstruction-renovation plans was better as compared to the rural guide plans. Conversely, comparing the level of executive-practical measures with control-supervision measures has also shown the superiority of executive-practical measures to control-supervision measures. Also, according to the model used, it was recorded that the state of government measures has been relatively weak in 22.7% of villages.
