What are the regulations on the life span of land use for public *** facilities

According to Article 12 of the Interim Regulations on the Granting and Transfer of the Right to Use State-owned Land in Cities and Towns, the maximum number of years for which the right to use land can be granted is determined in accordance with the following uses:

(1) 70 years for residential land.

(2) 50 years for industrial land.

(3) 50 years for land used for education, science and technology, culture, health and sports.

(4) 40 years for commercial, tourism and entertainment land.

(5) Comprehensive or other land use for 50 years.

When the term of land use right expires, the land user may apply for renewal. If renewal is required, the contract shall be re-signed, the land use right premium paid, and registration made in accordance with the regulations.

It is reported that, before the introduction of the Property Law, according to the July 5, 1994 "People's Republic of China *** and the State of urban real estate management law" Article 21, for the renewal of the land use right, should be re-signed the contract for the transfer of the right to use the land, and in accordance with the provisions of the payment of the land use right premium.

That is to say, according to the previous provisions, for the renewal of land use right is required to pay a certain fee. And after the Property Law was introduced, although it stipulates that it can be automatically renewed, but in fact there is no clear provision on the renewal of the land use fee payment standards and methods.

In particular, in March 2007, the "Land Management Law (Draft Revision)" began to solicit opinions within a certain range, compared to the "draft", "draft" to "automatically renew the term in accordance with the relevant provisions of the State", the "draft" to "automatically renew the term in accordance with the relevant provisions of the State. The draft of the "consultation draft", compared with the "draft", "automatic renewal in accordance with the relevant provisions of the state" to replace the "automatic renewal without compensation".
