The Hadi plan, referred to as a plan for change and transformation in the physical-structural of villages, is part of the rural development process, the preparation and implementation of which is within the framework of the planning system, with criteria and regulations that affect the structure of villages, especially the value of land. Determining and establishing a legal boundary for the village, as well as the necessity of construction and development therein, has led to changes in land prices in villages, turning the village into a capital commodity guided by government organizations with a policy of concentration-based development, undergoing fundamental changes and transformations. Under the government’s focus on Rural Guide plans (such as Hadi plan) and its agentive and linear perspective to their formulation, which has led to the standardization of most plans, as well as the lack of public participation in development plans, numerous problems have risen from the planning stage to implementation in the projects. This study is descriptive-analytical and the data is collected through library research and field study, which is the result of a four-day trip to Kohdasht region of Lorestan province. This study seeks to find out why the present society, despite rural guide plans, is witnessing the lack of environmental quality in the physical and non-physical fields and lack of satisfaction in the development of the village? During a field visit to Pay-e Astan village in Lorestan’s Kohdasht region, it seems that the failure to realize development plans in the action stage is mainly due to the inability to understand and identify the environmental characteristics and territorial values of the village in the stage of developing the plan. The realization path of Rural-Guide plans requires a detailed knowledge of the location and attention to the landscape layers in the planning process. The requirement for this is the inclusion of a stage in the description of spatial planning document compilation services under the title of reading landscape layers, in which landscape layers are discovered with the help of a landscape expert and the participation of the local community, after which, territorial values are identified. This process will lead to the preparation of a Place-based program that guarantees the sustainable development of the village.
