Tainan land monitoring 9,700 cases of variation points, 292 cases of illegal piling of earth and stone have been fined

Tainan City continues to monitor land use through satellite images. From 2020 to this year, a total of more than 9,700 cases of non-urban land variation points have been reported. Common violations include illegal construction, laying cement, erecting fences, and piling surplus earth and stone for construction. Among them, 292 cases of piling earth and rock have been fined from 2020 to this year.

南市地政局統計2020年至今年，南市非都市土地變異點案件累計約9700餘件，非違規及已辦結約8400餘件。 Land Secretary Chan Shu-mei said that land use monitoring is an important tool for early detection of suspected illegal use. Through satellite image interpretation, variation point reporting and cross-agency cooperation, land use changes can be grasped and the efficiency of inspection and processing can be improved.

The Bureau of Land Affairs pointed out that in response to the variation points discovered by monitoring, it will continue to compile data, conduct on-site inspections and confirm rights and responsibilities, and then transfer the case to the relevant competent authorities for handling according to the actual situation; users who are found to be in violation will be punished in accordance with the "Regional Planning Act" and other relevant laws, and the responsible authorities will be urged to continue to track and investigate.

The Land Bureau reminds the public that before purchasing, developing or changing land use, they should first confirm the land use zoning, land use category and relevant control regulations. If there is a need to fill the land, build buildings or install facilities, they should consult the competent authority in advance and obtain the necessary permission before proceeding with construction. Do not use land without permission to avoid being fined and bearing relevant legal liabilities.
