The Cadastral Resurvey Project is a national initiative targeting areas where the actual land use does not match the cadastral records (such as cadastral maps). The project involves surveying and measuring these areas according to their actual conditions, correcting boundaries, and establishing them as digital cadastral records. By updating paper cadastral maps created during the Japanese colonial period, the project aims to resolve boundary disputes, address building encroachments, and correct land shapes, thereby increasing land value.

The recently sent 'Notice of Expected Cadastral Confirmation' includes details by lot number, diagrams, and information on both the original land in the cadastral records and the adjusted boundaries and areas resulting from the cadastral resurvey. Landowners who have objections may submit a written opinion to the Land Information Division of Paju City Hall within 20 days of receiving the notice.

For land parcels with submitted opinions, boundaries may be reset through on-site investigations and coordination procedures among landowners. The final boundaries will be determined through the review and resolution process of the 'Paju City Boundary Decision Committee.'

While cadastral resurvey projects typically take two years to complete, the Hyangyang 1 District is being expedited with the goal of completion within this year.

Kim Nana, head of the Land Information Division, stated, "Through this cadastral resurvey project, we will resolve discrepancies between cadastral records and actual conditions, reduce boundary disputes among neighbors, and enhance the value of land use, thereby contributing to the protection of citizens' property rights."
