Collapsing the distributing system of service centers in cities is among the most important consequences of urban rapid growth that caused equality in accessing urban inhabitants’ services. Therefore, Providing the city with appropriate welfare services and fair spatial distribution is one of the most important missions of urban planners and managers. This research investigated the spatial distribution of 16 services and their relationship with real estate prices in Tehran's municipal districts. The data was provided from the statistical documents of Tehran Municipality and Iranian Statistical Center analyzed as the indicator of the number of services per 10,000 population using descriptive statistics and ranking. Findings indicate that District 12, which is the only municipal district that is completely located in the historical fabric of Tehran and corresponds to the market and the business center of the city, is superior in terms of services. The reason is the persistence of many elements of the Islamic city. After this, the districts of 6 (as an academic center and medical services center), 13, and 1 have better services, respectively. District 1 ranks fourth in terms of services although it is the most expensive and prosperous district of Tehran. The correlation coefficient of +0.235 indicates that, in general, in districts with higher real estate prices, urban services are in a better situation. Ten indicators have a direct correlation, in which the correlation coefficient of 3 medical indicators and university and garden indicators is higher. There is an inverse relationship between the sports hall and mosque index with real estate prices (-0.58 and -0.50). To achieve spatial and social justice, it is necessary for planning and urban management to choose the location of urban service centers in accordance with the less suitable areas that are explained in the study.

Urban stress is an important cause of physical and mental diseases in cities and access to urban services is one of the most important issues of today's urban planning. Therefore, urban planners and designers must pay special attention to them in their plans and designs. However, even though many studies have separately addressed urban stress and access to urban services in recent years, no study has been conducted to explain the relationship between the two. For this purpose, the present research was conducted to explain the relationship between urban stress and access to services in District 8 of District 1 in Tehran municipality, which is the most stressful district in this region according to experts. The research findings reveal that the value of the correlation coefficient between the independent and dependent variables is 0.790, which indicates a high correlation between access to services and urban stress. Moreover, the adjusted or modified coefficient of determination shows that 61% of the total changes are the stressfulness of the living environment of people dependent on access to urban services in their lives. Additionally, by using beta coefficients, indicators of access to green space, educational services, religious services, sports services, medical services, and transportation services are respectively the most important service indicators affecting the stress of citizens. Also, access to green space services, sports services, and religious services reduces citizens' stress, while proximity to educational services, transportation services, and medical services increases their stress. As a result, urban stress can be significantly reduced by paying special attention to the design and planning of educational services, transportation services, and medical services, as well as improving access to green space services, sports services, and religious services.

Measuring people's satisfaction with urban management is one of the most important factors determining the quality and performance of urban service providers; Based on this, the aim of the current research is to evaluate the quality of the urban management performance of the 2nd region of Tabriz metropolis from the citizens' point of view. The indicators used in this research in the functional areas of the municipality including urban services and environment, urban planning and architecture, crisis management, city management, cultural-social and transportation and traffic were identified and operationally defined using research background and theoretical literature. A statistical population of 383 people among the citizens was completed in the form of a field questionnaire.The research findings were analyzed using Friedman, one-sample t test and regression. The findings of the research show that the residents' satisfaction with the municipality and its services is at a medium to low level; Also, based on the Friedman test, it was determined that the highest level of citizen satisfaction is related to cultural and social indicators, and the lowest level of satisfaction is also in the index of city management and people's participation in city-related decisions. It was also confirmed that there is a significant difference between the level of education and the level of satisfaction and the absence of a relationship between the characteristics of age, gender and marriage and the level of satisfaction with the performance of the municipality.

Today, social capital is an indicator of growth and development in societies, without which it is highly challenging to achieve development at different levels. This capital increases investment in the fields of physical capital and human capital and establishes the structures created by public and private sector agents. Housing is one of the most important human needs leading to social conflicts or peace in different ages. The occurrence of each of these conditions is directly related to the amount of social capital among the residents, from the point of view that the social norths and souths in cities have turned into a concept for class distinction. Projects like Mehr Dwellings may have been capable of meeting the housing market needs in terms of quantity and shelter to a large extent, but what is stated in the theoretical literature on social housing at the global level, i.e. the level of satisfaction of residents of social housing projects, concerns the conditions therein in social, cultural, and other terms. It seems that the Mehr Dwellings project was carried out in a hasty manner regardless of basic criteria such as social capital. Therefore, the current research seeks to investigate the social capital conditions among the residents of Mehr Dwellings in the city of Sanandaj, Iran and the effective sociological factors. The questions raised on that basis concern the level of social capital among the residents of Mehr Dwellings in Sanandaj based on the above indicators and the extent to which sociological and contextual factors have affected each dimension of social capital.

Theoretical Framework:

The theoretical framework of the current research is based on the theories available in the field of social capital and the studies conducted in Iran and around the world on the research title. The structure of social capital is investigated here based on the socio-cultural dimensions of the Mehr Dwellings project. Following the discussion, the conceptual model of the research, which involves the link between the research literature and the results, is formulated in the concluding section.

The current research is a quantitative survey and therefore involves a method of data collection in which certain groups of people are asked to answer a certain number of specific questions, which are the same for all respondents. The research population includes all the households in the Mehr Dwellings in Sanandaj in 2019. According to the statistics published by Kurdistan Province Directorate-General for Roads and Urban Development, there are 38,000 Mehr Dwellings in the whole province, of which 13,606 have been built and submitted in Sanandaj, where a population of 43,091 people lives (Kurdistan Province Directorate-General for Roads and Urban Development, 2018). The statistical sample includes people over eighteen years of age residing in 7,600 Mehr Dwellings in Baharan Neighborhood in 2019. The sample size was specified through Cochran’s formula, based on which a size of 340 people was estimated; given the possibility of drop in the sample size, 10% was added to this number, and 374 people were finally selected to make up the study sample. The sampling methods included clustering according to Mehr Dwellings blocks and random selection of people over 18 years of age. In the selection of the samples, we tried to observe the age and sex combination as far as possible. The research tool was a researcher-made questionnaire, the formal and content validity of which were evaluated by experts in the fields of urban development and sociology. Moreover, the validity of the questions was evaluated using Cronbach’s alpha coefficient as 0.849, which indicates the appropriate reliability and validity. As a research measurement tool, the SPSS version 21 software was used to analyze the data in two sections: descriptive and inferential.

The findings of the research demonstrated that there are significant positive relationships between the social capital of residents of Mehr Dwellings and a number of the variables making up the level of apartment life standards, including the degree of neighborhood relations, the level of acquaintance with the social environment, satisfaction with the place of residence, access to facilities, and the quality of urban services and infrastructures, and the contextual variables of residence background, income, and marital status. The statistical results demonstrated that there is no significant relationship between the residents’ social capital and the variables of social relations and type of residence and contextual variables (age, gender, occupation, and academic degree). Apartment life standards and social capital among the residents of Baharan Mehr Dwellings will not change overnight, because the residents of these blocks are mainly immigrants from villages, unemployed people, female householders, urban subordinates in sociological terms. Corridors of social relations are limited, while there are stable conditions from another point of view. Although the residents’ harmony has undergone major changes during the past two years due to the high costs of housing, fundamental measures need to be taken by the institutions and trustees in the urban area. According to the results of the research, important actions to be taken in the current conditions include the participation of citizens in the affairs of the neighborhood, enhancement of the infrastructure and access networks, formation of civil institutions, and establishment of service and security institutions.

The results of the multivariate regression analysis also indicate that the variables of apartment life standards, neighborhood relations, and level of acquaintance impact the social capital of the residents of Mehr Dwellings and explain 32% of the changes in the dependent variable.

Since Covid-19, as a new and completely complex and anonymous phenomenon, entered the world, cities have not been able to meet the needs of their habitants and people could not change their lifestyle and adapt a new one. In the meantime, the use of new information and communication technologies and the creation of smart urban environments have caused natural and unnatural crises. The aim of this study is, therefore, to evaluate the effect of the Covid-19 outbreak on urban management intelligence, evaluate the impact of corona outbreak on the activities of Mashhad Municipality, and examine the measures taken in the field of intelligence to deal with this crisis. This research is applied in terms of purpose and exploratory-analytical in terms of method. It has adopted a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods (mixed-methods). Data has been collected through library and field studies. The statistical population of the research in the first level included 50 elites and available experts selected through snowball sampling and in the second level, 200 citizens have been selected for field analysis. Mick Mac Software and Scenario Wizard were used to analyze the extracted information. The research indicators included intelligent transportation, smart economy, smart government, smart living, smart citizens and smart environment. The results of the research indicated 8 key factors with several possible situations and scenarios for the future of urban management intelligence in the city of Mashhad.

One of the most important consequences of the rapid growth of urbanization and physical development of the cities in recent decades has been the disintegrated distribution of urban service centers, paving the way for social inequality in accessing them. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to compare and rank the cities of Mazandaran Province as one of the densest regions of the country, in terms of access to urban services. In this study, using statistical sources of Mazandaran Province and library studies, twenty-two levels of cities of Mazandaran Province were ranked in terms of access to twelve components selected from the urban services. In this regard, the data of the National Statistics Organization and the Organization of Management and Planning of Mazandaran Province have been used to compare the cities to each other after determining their weight using the feature index and Sturgess’ model in VP software. The results show that there is a huge difference between the cities of this province in terms of net output current values of the studied indicators, so that the cities of Miandorood and Amol with -0.7460 and 0.9087, respectively, are the least and the most prosperous cities of Mazandaran in terms of access to the twenty-two components.

Today, the method of distribution, provision and realization of urban services is one of the important necessities of urban life and urban development plans. However, the use of traditional methods of providing land for urban services has led to the fact that many lands allocated for public services have not been realized and have created problems for citizens and city managers, and therefore some areas of cities lack the necessary services to Biology is appropriate. Therefore, this issue leaves no choice but to resort to new methods in front of planners and city managers; these include the development of a right to development, which is based on respect for property rights. This study, using the fields and theoretical foundations of the subject, studies the feasibility of using the method of transferring the right to development to increase the feasibility of urban services in Karaj (areas No.1 and No.2 of the city) and seeks to answer the question that the requirements and What are the conditions for using this approach and which parts of districts No.1 and No.2 of Karaj are suitable for this model.

To answer these questions, A Analytical Network Process is used to prioritize the indicators and ArcGIS software is used for spatial analysis. According to the pattern of transfer of development rights, the neighborhoods located in districts No.1 and No.2 of Karaj city were divided into areas for receiving and transferring development rights.

The results showed that in the receiving areas, occurrence in the high compression zone in the comprehensive plan with a weight of 0.22 is in the first place, high land price with a weight of 0.16 is in the second place, high price in the residential unit with a weight of 0.15 is in the third place. In the areas of sending the parameter, the lack of government funding for land ownership with a weight of 0.34 is in the first priority, the high service levels proposed by urban development projects with a weight of 0.24 are also in the second priority. Azimiyeh 4 from District 1 has a very large capacity to receive development fees and the faculties of the faculty and Shah Abbasi and Moradab public areas have a very large capacity to send development fees.

Finally considering this method faces legal, financial and managerial challenges, Suggested to solve these challenges, Providing mechanisms and requirements such as prediction in urban development plans, Establishment the Office of the Transfer of Development Rights in the municipalities, Provide incentive packages By municipalities in order to creating motivate participation, And review the laws and regulations related to property rights in order to increase the efficiency of the method of transferring the right to development.

One of the key issues in urban management and municipalities is the foundations of productivity in urban services. The topic that has been discussed in the industry sector is not considered in the service sector, especially in municipalities. This topic has been considered by the Ministry of the Interior and one of the study projects of the Center for Urban Planning Studies of the Ministry of the Interior in 2001was devoted to developing ways to improve urban productivity. In this design, after defining productivity indicators, productivity enhancing practices have also been discussed that can be used to determine future policies and decisions in different urban areas. The municipality as a service institution and in fact one of the front-line organizations of the citizen's services is expected to increase its productivity by providing services to citizens in different sectors, especially urban services .
