Abstract

Over the last two centuries, urban expansion has become a phenomenon mostly discussed in planning-related topics. This process is often triggered by the development of a satellite town which is not only restricted to development activity on a massive land area, but it also takes high-investment and capital. This town is rather similar to the concept of large-scale residential area, but it develops into something more comprehensive with more varied land-uses that are integrated with urban facilities and infrastructures. In the case of Indonesia, until the 2000s, the majority of satellite town development still developed dynamically and vastly to support the activities in metropolitan areas in the area near Jakarta and East Java. The result of the development is easily spotted from spatial transformation taking place on a particular area such as on undeveloped land converted into large-scale residential areas integrated with supporting facilities in trading, health, offices, education, and other city infrastructure. Not only does the development contribute positive values, but it also brings negative impacts for the transformation of property rights of the local people who previously resided or worked the affected areas. The local people, as the owners and or the people, who have rights to manage their property, not only lose their use to land or/and have to let go their tenure status of the land but in some cases, the land also loses its formality. This is contrary to the condition where the land is a scarce resource and it serves as the source of livelihood. This paper presents the security level transformation of rights toward the property of local people driven by spatial transformation due to satellite town development in Indonesia. this focuses on two development of satellite town on inland and coastal areas. Contribution expected from this paper is to filling the gap in the literature over evidence how the level of security transformation of property rights have changed induced by land development through three bundles of rights: ownership, appropriation, and legality of rights. A fieldwork and questionnaires distribution (n=170) were conducted in Kota Baru Parahyangan, West Bandung Regency and Metro Tanjung Bunga, Makassar City. The finding shows that transformation of security level of property rights was dominated by the low category.
