The purpose of this study is to recognize institutional effectiveness of newly introduced ‘community plan’ as an intermediate level between master plan and local plans to systematically manage urban space. Literatures on master plan and community plans including planning theories are reviewed. Community plans of Seoul are examined in the aspects of institutional processes, their structures and components. Finally, AHP analysis is conducted for urban planning professionals and the results are understood by in-depth interviewing. AHP analysis describes institutionalization necessity of community plans, significance of their components and effectiveness of their implementation by comparing them to each other two at a time. According to the result of AHP analysis, it is shown that needs of intermediate planning and locally adhering planning have high significance of 0.248 and 0.229 in terms of institutionalization necessities of community plans. Public utilities and community center gained the best scores of 0.289 and 0.234 in planning compositions. Effectiveness of implementation shows high significances for planned spatial management with 0.263, urban planning committee’s criteria with 0.228 and promotion of public concern with 0.224. As the results of this study, it is recognized that experts regard community plans as considerable accomplishments in the views of intermediate, locally adhering and participative plans and required constituents of urban planning system for the future. Although community participation gains the lowest significance in the AHP analysis, it is remarkable that participations in community plans are differentiated from previous planning due to their massive scales and procedures.
