Real estate market activity in Slovenia in 2000-2006

This paper examines a particular aspect of Slovenian real estate market that is still developing -real estate market activity. Only two decades ago, Slovenia still had a socialist, planned economy, so there is a lack of tradition in the fields of both the real estate market and analysis of that market. The former only started to develop with the transition to the market-oriented economy in the beginning of the 1990s. Significant progress was observed in the second half of the 1990s, due to the favourable economic development of the country. In our research, we focused on the real estate market development in the 2000-2006 period, which was marked by major changes in legislation and other institutional backgrounds, directly or indirectly referring to the field of real estate and real property. The development of the real estate market in Slovenia was examined for a given period on the basis of the available market data, which have been acquired from the Tax Administration of the Republic of Slovenia; the real estate market activity development is analysed by statistical regions and types of real estate. The results show general developments in the Slovenian real estate market for the given period and, in particular, the influence of institutional and legal factors on real estate market activity

EURO-ECOLE: Assessment of the Bioavailability and Potential Ecological Effects of Copper in European Surface Waters ; subproject 4: Evaluation and improvement of the ecological relevance of laboratory generated toxicity data

This report summarizes the acute and chronic toxicity of copper to algae, Daphnia and a few other freshwater species in standard laboratory test water and a wide range of natural surface waters (collected across Europe), with a wide range of pH, dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration and hardness. These data can be used for validation of bioavailability models such as the biotic ligand model (BLM)

The Austrian land cadastre - from the earliest beginnings to the modern land information system

The objective of this discussion is the Austrian land\ud cadastre, which forms the basis of the Austrian land\ud information system, together with the land registry. From\ud a data structure perspective, the Austrian land cadastre is a\ud traditional parcel-oriented system and includes a geometric\ud description of land plots linked to other records describing\ud the nature of the land plots. The changeable institutional\ud (legal) framework was shaped the continuous development\ud of the Austrian land cadastre since the first systematic land\ud survey and cadastral mapping at the beginning of the 19th\ud century. With the progress of information technology in\ud recent decades, it has been developed into a contemporary\ud land information system, which (together with the land\ud registry) provides up-to-date land information. It has to\ud be emphasized that the current land cadastre still contains\ud some data from its very beginning and, for this reason, the\ud historical development of this evidence, including data\ud sources, is of great importance for users of these data. The first\ud part of the article provides an introduction to the historical\ud development of the Austrian land cadastre, followed by\ud the presentation of contents and procedures of the current\ud land cadastre

Land consolidation for large-scale infrastructure projects in Germany

Large-scale infrastructure projects require the acquisition of\ud appropriate land for their construction and maintenance,\ud while they often cause extensive fragmentations of the\ud affected landscape and land plots as well as significant\ud land loss of the immediately affected land owners. A good\ud practice in this field comes from Germany. In Germany,\ud the so-called “land consolidation for large-scale projects”\ud is used to distribute the land loss among a larger group\ud of land owners and to reduce the damages caused by land\ud dissection. In this article, the results of detailed analyses of\ud the land consolidation for large-scale projects’ procedures\ud in Germany are presented. The procedure is coordinated by\ud the land consolidation authority, which has to check several\ud formal and content requirements before implementing\ud a land consolidation procedure. The needed land for the\ud large-scale infrastructure project has to be provided by the\ud owners of the land plots in the land consolidation area by\ud selling it to the developer, by balanced land-loss following the\ud land consolidation plan or relinquishment of re-allocation\ud of particular land owners. The main objective of this article\ud is to introduce and analyse the aims, requirements and\ud procedure of German land consolidation for the purpose\ud of land acquisition by large-scale infrastructure projects\ud associated with remarkable spatial interventions

The analysis of judicial cases for real property evidencing in the area of sma regional office of Novo mesto

In the Graduation Thesis we have analyzed past and contemporary Legislation regarding recording of real property, in particular in the field of judicial clarification of boundary. Based on data provided by SMA regional office Novo mesto we have analyzed the frequency of treatments with an appeal on judicial proceedings. We have found out, that a share of judicial proceedings of arranging land boundaries has been reduced in recent years. Further on we have checked and verified that the frequency of recording of judicaly determined boundaries in the land cadastre based, is affected by the distance of parcel from the closest towns and that the frequency is dependent on land use pattern

The analysis of judicial cases for real property evidencing in the area of sma branch office of Litija

The recording of real properties into cadastral databases (land cadastre, building cadastre) is possible through a final, administrational written order or through a final court decree whit cadastral documentation. This paper in short describes the procedure of clarification of land parcel boundaries in an administrational procedure and in a judicial non-litigation procedure. In a judicial boundary clarification procedure, apart from the court itself, a court surveying expert is also of great importance, therefore a special attention was given to his/her particular function. For the Surveying and Mapping Authority's branch office of Litija, which was choosen for study area, we have analysed the frequency of land plot boundaries records in the land cadastre, where boundaries were set based on a court decree. For this purpose we have gathered data on the records of land plot boundaries determined by the court decrees for each cadastral municipality in the study area, using the information system of the Surveying and Mapping Authority. Duration of the procedures and the content of decisions have been analysed for the chosen cases of judicial boundary clarifications, with an emphasis on surveying court expert assessments and the content of court decrees. The purpose of this thesis is to expose critical procedures and problems of the existing legal arrangements for a judicial clarification of land plot boundaries

The influence of protected natural and cultural heritage on land management/market: The case of Slovenian natural protected areas

This article is focused on finding problems in land use domain in the areas of protected natural and cultural heritage. In the paper, the influence of special regulation in the natural and cultural protected areas on land management is presented. The paper gives an overview on history of cultural heritage and nature protection initiatives in Slovenia and provides a review on basic EU and international initiatives, conventions in this field. For the case of Slovenian rural land market, it highlights the problem of complex institutional regulations relating to land management in the protected areas, which affect mostly local people. Here, the impact of the protected regimes, the case of pre-emption right, on land management and consequently spatial development in local communities is stressed, which is an important topic in particular in less developed regions since restriction of land use often means more complex, costly and time lasting procedures in land management and less opportunities as the consequence
