| Resource Title | Using decision-makers' perception to establish conditions for land use change in dumpsite brownfields: the case of Banquerohan dumpsite in Legazpi City, Albay |
| Date Issued | 23 January 2025 |
| Abstract | The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) declared the closure of all remaining illegal dumpsites in April 2021, freeing up 1,174 land for future urban uses. Despite the legal mandate for dumpsite conversion, local government units have not yet incorporated post-closure land use into their planning agenda. Additionally, the framework for dumpsite conversion is non-existent, so this study aimed to establish the conditions for dumpsite brownfield redevelopment by engaging stakeholders in a local area sample where expert and council decision-makers addressed the three major concerns on dumpsite conversion, namely, information requirements, site attributes, and land uses. The research method adopted was the Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Analysis (MCDA) as it accounts for the physical and socio-economic qualities of the land, as well as the diversity of perceptions of land potential among different decision-makers. The preference for available information in assessing the site, the attributes that make a dumpsite suitable for redevelopment, and the matching of site attributes with possible land uses were assessed on a five-point Likert scale. The site attributes were organized under each land use to establish a definite criterion for redevelopment, and project options were shown to verify the decision-makers' previous land use choices. The preference for information requirements was ranked and analyzed based on their content and coverage using measures of central tendency and dispersion. However, due to the lack of benchmarks for dumpsite redevelopment, the site attributes were assessed subjectively by decision-makers. This is the fuzzy part of the study where the weights and rankings were calculated using Fuzzy TOPSIS and Kendall's Tau b for rank correlation. Finally, measures of central tendency and Kendall's Tau b Rank Correlation were employed to investigate the decision-makers' preferences for land use and project options. The results indicat |
