The diversified planning of shared public facilities has resulted in high public facilities ratio. During community public facilities planning, due to planners’ inability to grasp house buyers’ needs, public facilities originally intended for a good cause may turn out to be community decorations or left unused. In this study, through a survey analysis on residents’ actual public facilities usage, community public facilities planning assessment standards were established. In addition, recommendations for planners, managers, and users were put forth in order to improve the efficiency of community public facilities usage. This study is evidence-based, with the post-occupancy evaluation theory adopted. Through literature reviews, secondary data, including shared facilities of apartments, logistics management, community awareness, and other relevant theories, as well as building technical rules, Taipei City’s land use zoning control rules, apartment provisions, and other regulations, underwent analysis. After site visits, the existing situation of apartment shared facilities management was collated, and the expert interviews were amended to establish the criteria for apartment shared facilities planning assessment. Five communities from different administrative districts in Taipei City were selected. Targeting community public facilities, site inspection and analysis were implemented through the field research approach. Based on the public facilities assessment dimensions, namely, the environmental side, the service side, the activity side, and the community side, the actual usage of apartment public facilities was explored. The questionnaire survey was administered to investigate residents’ responses towards community public facilitates usage. In addition, the regression analysis was conducted using the SPSS statistical software to gain an insight into residents’ post-occupancy emphasis and satisfaction towards the various apartment public facilities. The research results were used to find the post-occupancy evaluation standards from the environmental aspect, the service aspect, the activity aspect, and the social aspect. The criteria for community environmental quality are: “safety”, “comfort”, “serenity”, “hygiene”, and “environmental protection”; the criteria for life services management are: “conveyance”, “life services”; the criteria for community recreational activates are: “health”, “recreation”, and “cultural education”; the criteria for community participation identity are: “organization”, “festivals”, and “gatherings”. The residents’ levels of emphasis for the four dimensions of community public facilities ranked in order are: 1. community environmental quality; 2. life service management; 3. community recreational activities; 4. social participation identity. The emphasis attached to the environmental side and the service side is higher than that of the activity side and the social side, thus indicating the residents’ inclination towards function-based practical considerations. However, the provisions of facilities, from the activity aspect and the social aspect, are said to be conducive to more interaction among residents, reaching community consensus, and strengthened management mechanisms, thereby enhancing community value and improving the quality of life.
