Abstract
The challenges posed by urban growth and development are indeed significant world-wide. As cities expand, they grapple with issues related to space, resources, and facilities. The migration from rural to urban areas exacerbates these challenges, leading to increased demand for services such as energy, sanitation, and mobility. Pollution and other environ-mental problems also arise due to rapid population growth in urban centers. Traditionally, decision-making in municipalities followed top-down approaches, often overlooking the perspectives and desires of citizens. However, a paradigm shift toward Smart Cities (SC) emphasizes multi-stakeholder involvement and shared visions. To address this, a novel decision-making methodology is proposed, integrating the needs of various stakeholders, including citizens. The stages of the methodology are a) SC Paradigm: Which emphasizes sustainable development, green growth, and collaboration among stakeholders; b) Survey-Based Approach: The process begins with a survey to capture community needs. This data collection phase is crucial for understanding the diverse perspectives within the community; c) ELECTRE: a decision-making technique, is employed to formalize and prioritize these needs. It balances different interests and helps optimize project design. This methodology was applied to a neighborhood in the city of Santiago de Chile, generating solutions to the main problems faced by residents of the sector.
