Municipality has repealed its plans (Decisi<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Municipality Council dated<br />

29.07.1999; numbered 243/1668). Subsequent to this decisi<strong>on</strong>, <strong>the</strong> Municipality<br />

Council has decreed <strong>the</strong> “Demoliti<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> c<strong>on</strong>structi<strong>on</strong>s that do not have a license<br />

pursuant to Article 32 <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> C<strong>on</strong>structi<strong>on</strong> Law, and <strong>the</strong> impositi<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> a fiscal penalty<br />

amount<strong>in</strong>g to TL 500 milli<strong>on</strong> pursuant to Article 42 <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> same law, as per <strong>the</strong><br />

Resoluti<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Municipality Council dated 12.04.2001, numbered 101.<br />

Up<strong>on</strong> <strong>the</strong> pass<strong>in</strong>g <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> aforementi<strong>on</strong>ed resoluti<strong>on</strong>, S.S. Yeni Balçova Light<br />

Industry Site Cooperative has filed an acti<strong>on</strong> <strong>on</strong> 07.09.2001 (4 th Adm<strong>in</strong>istrative Court,<br />

Legal Basis 2001/746E). The current images <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> site are provided <strong>in</strong> Fig. 4.7).<br />

This plann<strong>in</strong>g/litigati<strong>on</strong> <strong>process</strong> that has occurred <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> Light Industry Site,<br />

must be taken <strong>in</strong>to c<strong>on</strong>siderati<strong>on</strong> toge<strong>the</strong>r with <strong>the</strong> zmir-Çe me Highway that is<br />

undertaken by <strong>the</strong> Turkish Highway Works and <strong>the</strong> improvement plans that cover <strong>the</strong><br />

same regi<strong>on</strong>. For, <strong>the</strong> plans under litigati<strong>on</strong> are relevant to <strong>the</strong> performance <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

implementati<strong>on</strong> plans c<strong>on</strong>ducted <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> regi<strong>on</strong> that was planned as urban work<strong>in</strong>g area <strong>in</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> Master Plan with a scale <strong>of</strong> 1/5000 <strong>in</strong> 1998, <strong>the</strong> plans that were approved <strong>in</strong> 1995,<br />

and <strong>the</strong> implementati<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> subdivisi<strong>on</strong> plan numbered 62. Prior to <strong>the</strong><br />

implementati<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> plans, <strong>the</strong> m<strong>in</strong>or enterprises that were operat<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> area where<br />

<strong>the</strong> light <strong>in</strong>dustry site is located (i.e. <strong>the</strong> space between <strong>the</strong> Mithatpa a Road and <strong>the</strong><br />

Highway (subdivisi<strong>on</strong> area no. 62)) were ordered to leave <strong>the</strong> area pursuant to <strong>the</strong><br />

evacuati<strong>on</strong> decisi<strong>on</strong>s passed between 1995 -1998. (see figure:4.6. <strong>the</strong> acti<strong>on</strong>s under <strong>the</strong><br />

capti<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> “evacuati<strong>on</strong>”). The places <strong>of</strong> bus<strong>in</strong>ess engaged <strong>in</strong> automotive <strong>in</strong>dustry located<br />

<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> c<strong>on</strong>cerned z<strong>on</strong>e, have relocated <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> new area designated for <strong>the</strong>m with<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

borders <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Gaziemir district; however, no space was allocated to <strong>the</strong> m<strong>in</strong>or<br />

handicrafts <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> c<strong>on</strong>cerned area. Accord<strong>in</strong>gly, <strong>the</strong> acti<strong>on</strong>s that were <strong>in</strong>itiated <strong>in</strong><br />

c<strong>on</strong>necti<strong>on</strong> with <strong>the</strong> cancellati<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> plan entail <strong>the</strong> exam<strong>in</strong>ati<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> c<strong>on</strong>cerned<br />

legal acti<strong>on</strong>s toge<strong>the</strong>r with <strong>the</strong> resoluti<strong>on</strong>s c<strong>on</strong>cern<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> plan, <strong>the</strong> changes that are<br />

experienced <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> c<strong>on</strong>cerned regi<strong>on</strong> and with its relati<strong>on</strong>s with <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r pend<strong>in</strong>g legal<br />

acti<strong>on</strong>s. When <strong>the</strong> claims <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> parties and <strong>the</strong> <strong>process</strong> are taken up as a whole, it<br />

becomes possible to develop a better analysis <strong>on</strong> <strong>the</strong> issue.<br />
