Valuation based land regulation model and its applicability in Türkiye

Mehmet Koçoğlu — 2024-03-07

Land readjustment works applied in Türkiye are carried out in accordance with the 18^th article of the 3194 zoning law. According to the regulation, all of the cadastral parcels in the regulation limit are considered as a whole and are converted into construction parcels. It is natural that there will be an increase in the value of these areas, which are now considered as construction plots. However, in practice, some cadastral parcels in the scope of regulation benefit much from this increase in value, and some parcels are satisfied with only a less value increase. This problem, which is experienced in practice, often brings with it a legal issue or legal lawsuits about the application for citizens. In accordance with the 18^th Article of the law with the number 3194, a value-based distribution may be applied in practice in all the parcels that are included within the regulation limit instead of a field-based distribution. This application has a great importance in terms of eliminating the existing problems in this field. However, uncertainties related the valuation procedures weaken strength of the value-based method. In this study; applicability of value-based land readjustment and to be adopted by practitioners, the right development was taken as the basis which directly and most affects the value of the real estate. The Model was applied in a selected pilot study area, the calculated allocation values were compared with the current implementation method.

Shiva Sattarzadeh Salehi — 2024-03-07

Today, the expansion of cities and the increase in population in different areas of the city has caused the urban population to disperse; Therefore, the mission of spatial justice in cities is essential in order to distribute urban facilities and services fairly, taking into account the needs of citizens; So, if the city managers cannot distribute the facilities and public services in a fair and desirable way in different areas of the city, they will create grounds for citizens' dissatisfaction with access to services. The purpose of this research is to investigate the relationship between population distribution and spatial distribution of urban services in the phases of the city. The information needed for the research has been prepared by document-library and field methods. the fuzzy method was used to scale the indicators (population, water, electricity, and green space) and then the mentioned indicators were analyzed in the ArcGIS 10.8.1 software environment with the Gates Ardeji statistics and Moran's spatial autocorrelation methods. Also, the results of hot and cold spots show that the amount of water and electricity consumption and other investigated criteria are higher in phases two, three, one and four, respectively. Therefore, attention to planning regarding the fair distribution of urban services not only includes the realization of spatial justice for the city, but also can prevent the occurrence of gaps and inequality of services between phases.

Problems encountered in urban transformation applications and solution suggestions: A case study of Osmaniye Province

Muhammed Emin Işık — 2024-03-07

In this study, urban transformation practices were discussed within the scope of renewal, arrangement and development activities of existing buildings under natural disasters and the risks that come with them, and the problems and deficiencies experienced in practice were examined specifically in Osmaniye city center. It is known that urban transformation has significant benefits in terms of public interest and public health, and increases the comfort levels of city dwellers through urban planning and infrastructure improvements. Despite its many positive effects on disaster-resistant city planning and the priority of life and property safety, it is sometimes possible to encounter very bad examples as a result of incorrect or incomplete applications. When the applications carried out in Osmaniye city center are examined, it is generally seen that island-based large-scale transformations are more accurate in terms of time, cost and environmental order compared to partially smaller and parcel-based on-site transformations.
