The history of the contemporary city planning legislation for Taiwan in the Japanese colonial age in this paper would be set up into two stages: 'Creation Stage' (1895-1937) and 'consolidation Stage' after the 'Taiwan City Planning Order' (1937.4.1) and onwards. Contemporary urban policy of the early colonial administration was focusing on urban public health and road improvement, i.e. 'City Reform'. In the reform process, regulations of concern were consequentially formulated and transferred into the legislation of 'City Area Plan' (City Planning). Major aspects in the legislation were: 'Grand Lease' elimination for land ownership to small tenants; landuse and ownership surrey; ownership and exterior rights registration on property. The legislation created land reform and foundation for urban modernization. i.e. compulsory acquisition was importnt for 'City Area Plan' implementation. The 'Taiwan Sewer Regulation' (Order No.6) in April 1899 was the first decree for implementing 'City Reform; in November the same year' The Order no. 30' set up savero roetriction on change of landuse and land form on the 'Public Facility Land' which provided solid legal basis for the implementation of 'City Area Plan' latter. In May 1901 the 'Land Compulsory Acquisition Regulations in Taiwan' (Order No.3) stabilized land acquisition practice. Those three Order constituted as the piers of planning legislation in the 'Creation Stage'. The implementation of the public works in the early period of 'City Reform' and 'City Area Plan' required only the Approval of the Governor, which indicated the centralization for planning power under the colonial administration. In the 'Creation Stage', the other important aspect was the creation of examination and review system. At the beginning, a 'City Planning Committee' was created in each local authority. In 1910, The City Planning Committee of the Taiwan Governor Office was created and then, directed all the city plans in the Island. In 1937, for the implementation of 'The City Planning Order for Taiwan' it was changed as 'The City Planning Committee of Taiwan'. In 1940, it was further created as 'The Central Committee' and 'Local Committee' for local authority. The two-tier system for planning examination and evaluation with the other innovations of the same stage had been consolidated in 'The City Planning Order for Taiwan' of the 'Consolidation Stage', also further inherited by the Chinese Government (to be presented in the follow-up of this Paper). Those innovations of the Creation Stage had profound influence to the urban development in Taiwan. |
