A concerted development zone

This decision provides important clarification on your property rights. Here is what it changes for you.

The situation

A concerted development zone delimited in a local urban development plan can be modified without prior modification of the local urban development plan; a Court of Appeal rightly deduces from this that the request of a property owner for the abandonment of their building must be rejected when, after a duly published decision, the building is no longer within the perimeter of the concerted development zone.

What the law says

This decision confirms the fundamental principles of property law.

Key points to remember

• Strictly observe the statutory time limits for appeals
• Keep all your supporting documents (title deeds, deeds, correspondence)
• Anticipate: preventive advice always costs less than litigation
