Green Infrastructure Development (GID) is a wellknown method for dealing with runoff control and mitigating the urbanization effects on hydrological cycles. Other than hydrological factors, GID is obviously intertwined with many socioeconomic, environmental, and aesthetic considerations, constraints, and drivers.

Based on the results, actions for improving the
