Land Expropriation Act Article 40
Original landowners who are unwilling to receive cash as compensation for their lands under zone expropriation may, during the public announcement period for expropriation, apply to the municipal or county (city) competent authority in writing for distribution of land for compensation by enclosing related supporting documents. The municipal or county (city) competent authority shall forthwith review the application and notify the applicant of the result in writing.When landowners apply for distribution of land for compensation in accordance with the preceding paragraph, they may apply with all or part of the compensation they are entitled to for their expropriated land.For landowners who apply for distribution of land for compensation, their rights and obligations in association with their lands end when they receive the notice of approval of the distribution of land for compensation issued by the municipal or county (city) competent authority. Landowners who have been approved to receive land for compensation or have received compensation payment for their expropriated land may apply to the municipal or county (city) competent authority to switch to the distribution of cash compensation or distribution of land for compensation based on the original compensation for land value. The municipal or county (city) competent authority will grant approval after obtaining the consent of the land use applicant.Landowners who apply to switch to distribution of cash compensation or distribution of land for compensation according to the preceding paragraph shall make such application within one month from the date of notice of approval of distribution of land for compensation, or the date the cash compensation is paid in full, or the date of notice of compensation for land value being deposited into the custodian account, and such application is allowed once only. For applications for switching to distribution of land for compensation, the municipal or county (city) competent authorities shall ask the applicant to return the compensation for land value to be switched to land for compensation before granting the approval.For applications for distribution of land for compensation, the municipal or county (city) competent authorities are not subject to the time limit for distribution of land for compensation as provided in Paragraph 1, Article 20 herein.The municipal or county (city) competent authorities shall, after planning the allocation of lands to be distributed to landowners whose applications for distribution of land for compensation have been approved, request the registry authority to carry out the registration of land ownership, and notify the original landowners to take over by presenting themselves on the sites during a specific period. If any original landowner fails to do so as instructed, the land shall be deemed to have been taken over.
