Section 3 Development and Redevelopment of Urban Areas
Section 3 Development and Redevelopment of Urban Areas 1 Policy for Urban Redevelopment Policy for urban redevelopment is a master plan that comprehensively systematizes measures for urban redevelopment on a long-term basis, thereby aiming to ensure fair guidance and planned promotion of redevelopment. The revised Urban Renewal Act of 1980 has designated urban areas that require planned redevelopment (Category 1 Urban Areas) and those that should promote integrated and comprehensive redevelopment and have shown the momentum and activities for redevelopment as redevelopment promotion districts (Category 2 Areas or Quasi-Category 2 Areas), and areas that fall short of redevelopment promotion districts but are desirable to be developed and expected of development effects as redevelopment guidance districts. Policy for urban redevelopment has been repeatedly revised since its formulation in November 1986, the status as of April 1, 2019, is shown in Table 3-24 (page 149). 2 Urban Redevelopment Projects In existing urban areas, there are, in spite of their urban central locations, many areas that lack infrastructures such as roads, those that are with low land-use efficiency and poor urban environment due to their fragmented land use, and those that carry disaster risks due to high concentration of old wooden houses. As for urban redevelopment, the term “redevelopment” may be used in so broad a sense as to cover a case where a landowner promotes the construction of fireproof or high-rise buildings by consolidating or converting land use voluntarily in a personal or corporate capacity. In this regard, various methods are utilized. It is, however, difficult to promote redevelopment if depending only on voluntary construction activities in areas where relationships of rights are subdivided or where effective land use cannot be pursued only by private funding. -
