indicators as explained earlier. Each planning block has its own score of sus-

of the planning blocks within the JBCC. Based on the indicators' eigenvalues,
economic sustainability is the most important dimension to determine sustain-
ability of an area followed by environmental sustainability and social sustainability
(Fig.
