What Determines the Implementation of Development Planning Deliberations in The Village?

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of variables on community participation and decision-making in development planning deliberations in the village. The problems found are that community involvement has not been maximized in development planning deliberation activities, community involvement in decision making is still very minimal and dominated by the same people from year to year, development planning is only a formality because there is no control mechanism from the community. Community proposals only fulfill the list of existing programs, without any guarantee that the program will be accommodated. This study uses a quantitative descriptive method. The data that has been collected is processed by frequency distribution and multiple linear regression analysis. Validity test, reliability test, and data normality test were also carried out using the SPSS 20.0 for the windows program. The results showed that the influence of community participation and decision-making in the development planning deliberation went quite well and were decisive. Although the Village Government still must improve the decision-making system in development planning deliberation by creating a more participatory mechanism.
