In this case, squatters contrary to the zoning legislation, illegal construction and the irregular and unhealthy urbanization that created the problems of ownership has resulted. The Law No. 7143 on restructuring of taxes and other receivables and amending some laws was enacted on 18.05.2018 with the Official Gazette No. 30425 named ‘zoning peace law’ which is applied for the solution of the mentioned problems. In this study, a research has been made on the extent to which Kayseri province and its districts have benefited from Article 16 of this Law and for what reasons they have applied.
