Abstract

This study discusses administrative litigation concerning the city planning roads that have been left unimproved for a prolonged period. Underlying each of these cases is recognition of the unreasonableness that city planning restrictions continue to be imposed despite changes in socio-economic circumstances and local environmental conditions. In principle, city planning is a balance of stability and continuity against change and flexibility. However, in practice, it is rarely altered once put into place due to insensitivity to the passage of time due to the understanding that property rights, once restricted by city planning, should be guaranteed prudently. Finally, for improvement and review of the city planning road, this study advocates (a) just enforcement of the legal obligation to alter city planning and institutionalization of city planning with time limits, (b) enrichment of basic city planning survey, (c) and institutional reform of city planning proposal system.
