| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北大學 === 都市計劃研究所 === 97 === Taiwan has already become an aging society. Reforming living environments to meet elder’s needs is not only elder’s expectations, but also the government’s responsibility. The government's present policies for senior citizens lack the planning of independent life and residential locations. To meet elder’s needs on living environments in physical planning, this study aims at developing a location-allocation model as an auxiliary analysis tool for planners in senior citizens communities planning. The developed model was applied to the case study of Wanhua District, Taipei City, to verify the applicability and reasonableness of model. The planning results of case study offer concrete recommendations to Taipei City Government.
There are four phases in this study: The first phase is clarifying research topic and contents; and then, a literature review was done according to the research topic; thirdly, a location-allocation model was developed, and the last phase is applying the model to the case study of wanhua for creating alternatives and proceeding policy analyses. This study employed land-use suitability analysis and mathematical programming approach to design the model as a multi-objective mixed integer programming problem. The model considers three objectives for different stakeholders: maximizing environmental suitability, maximizing developed dwelling units and minimizing development costs, with the following constraints: upper and lower bounds of development scale for each site, dwelling unit demands and value ranges of decision variables. According to the model characteristics, this study applied ε-constraint method to solve the developed model.
The case study was progressed in the base year of 2007 and in the target year of 2017. Four alternatives of senior citizens community plans were produced with different features: emphasizing economic minorities, emphasizing environmental suitability and dwelling unit demands, emphasizing the balance between environmental suitability and development costs and emphasizing the balance between environmental suitability and dwelling unit demands. The model development and applications of this study contribute to government spatial planning department in developing strategies of moving towards an aging benefit society.
