Abstract: A proposal is made for an optimality condition in regional planning problems where multiple criteria exist. This proposal is based on the relative performance of each individual criterion rather than the more usual total utility function. An example of an application is described, showing how the optimality condition might be applied in practice. Also comparisons are made in this example with a single-objective approach to the same problem to show the difference in the results obtained.
