| Summary: | Plan outputs are the material objects that are tangible and provided as a result of the
implementation of a development plan. They often act as precursor to achieving plan
outcomes. Therefore, it is important to monitor the performance of plan in delivering its
outputs so that the prospect of achieving its outcomes remains high. However, present
state structure plan monitoring programmes focus mostly on monitoring land use change
and not plan output delivery. The absence of output monitoring reduces the usefulness of
the programmes and contributes to under-provision of outputs, especially public facilities
and open spaces. This study proposes that state structure plan monitoring programmes
must include mechanism to monitor the performance of the plan in delivering plan
outputs. To this end, a dynamic model for monitoring performance of state structure plan
in delivering open spaces was developed using STELLA software and applied on the
Selangor State Structure Plan. The model simulation showed that the Selangor State
Structure Plan has performed poorly in delivering the open spaces where their provision
has not conform to the plan’s targets. The model simulations also show that this nonconformances
will remain by the end of the plan’s planning period. |
