8.59-Hectare Transformation Area in Kartal

An 8.59-hectare area in Kartal’s Gümüşpınar neighbourhood, defined by coordinates and a boundary map, was designated an urban transformation and development project area by Presidential Decision No. 11924.

The decision was taken on 23 October 2026 and entered into force when published in Official Gazette No. 33410 on 24 October. This report was prepared on 31 October 2026 to explain its staged implications for owners.

The whole neighbourhood is not included

The designation covers not all of Gümüşpınar but the approximately 8.59-hectare section defined by the annexed map and coordinates. Inclusion must be checked by matching the block and parcel to the official boundary, not merely by neighbourhood name.

Decision in force; planning and implementation are separate stages

The project-area designation is final and in force. Yet the decision does not state new development parameters, an implementation programme, an evacuation date or allocation of entitlements. These will be clarified separately through planning, public display, objection, agreement and implementation stages.

The designation therefore does not mean every building will be demolished immediately or that owners’ future unit rights are already fixed.

What condition applies to Treasury properties?

Treasury properties transferred to municipalities at the fee-assessment value may not be sold before a transformation-oriented plan and implementation are completed. This is not a general sales ban on all privately owned property in the area.

Law 6306 and Yarısı Bizden do not start automatically

The area was designated under Article 73 of Municipal Law No. 5393. The decision alone does not classify every building as risky under Law 6306 or automatically grant Yarısı Bizden aid, credit approval or rent support. Each programme’s risk, eligibility and application conditions still apply.

What should owners in Gümüşpınar do now?

1. Verify the title-deed block and parcel against the coordinates and boundary map annexed to the decision.
2. Collect current zoning status, permit, occupancy and unit documents in one file.
3. Track IBB and Kartal Municipality planning, public-display and council notices by parcel number.
4. Do not treat promised floor area or units as vested rights before planning and implementation terms are published.
5. At agreement or contract stage, assess land shares, new units, temporary accommodation and delivery terms in writing.
