[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongnam announced on the 5th that it will actively promote the cadastral readjustment project for five districts in addition to Hapcheon District 4, following the designation and announcement of the 2021 cadastral readjustment project districts.


This cadastral readjustment project is a long-term national project to be carried out until 2030, aimed at correcting the cadastral register entries of cadastral mismatched land that do not match the actual status of the land, converting them into digital cadastral maps, efficiently managing the national land, and protecting the property rights of the people.


Since August last year, the county selected areas with severe discrepancies between actual boundaries and cadastral registers and where cadastral surveying was difficult, established an implementation plan, held resident briefings, and obtained consent from more than two-thirds of landowners before applying for the designation of cadastral readjustment districts to the province in February.


The 2021 cadastral readjustment project target districts are six districts in total (1,178 parcels / 478,335㎡): Hapcheon District 4 (around 315, Hapcheon-ri, Hapcheon-eup), Hapcheon District 5 (around 677, Hapcheon-ri, Hapcheon-eup), Seosan District (around 828-8, Seosan-ri, Hapcheon-eup), Hanggok District (around 255, Hanggok-ri, Yulgok-myeon), Ssangbaek Hasin District (around 258-8, Hasin-ri, Ssangbaek-myeon), and Deokam District (around 21-5, Deokam-ri, Yaro-myeon).


The county conducted surveying over nine months by investigating the actual occupancy status in cooperation with the Korea Land and Geospatial Informatix Corporation, which was selected as the surveying executor for the six districts designated as cadastral readjustment districts this time.


Additionally, through boundary consultations, the new cadastral registers were finalized, and the project is being promoted with plans to complete it by the end of next year.



Park Joon-sik, Head of the Civil Service Department, said, “The cadastral readjustment project corrects land information to increase land use value and serves as a foundation to protect the property rights of the residents. We ask for the active consent and cooperation of the residents regarding the surveying and boundary decisions related to the cadastral readjustment project.”
