Abstract:

This article analyzed the characteristics of an effective ecological plan,and laid out four criteria to evaluate effectiveness of an ecological plan,namely the goal accomplishment,the netbenefits of plan,public satisfaction and appropriately controlled implementation process.Based on this concept,an multiplevalue oriented index system was established,which involved multiple value orientation of different stakeholders and three subsystems,the planning process,the implementation process and the outcome of plan.In the third part,the index system mentioned above was applied to evaluate the effectiveness of ecocity construction plan in Taicang County of Suzhou City，which showed that this analytical approach is feasible and operable in practical condition.Suggestions to improve the effectiveness of ecological plan and build longterm management system for ecological plan in China were also proposed in the final part.〖
