and stress” which Brussels experienced, and in the case of Liege
especially certain improvements carried out by this method have
shown a substantial profit.
It is of interest to note in this connection that the power of taking
land by zones conferred on the cities of Belgium is not possessed by
the State, one reason for this distinction being that the approval of
the Provincial Government required in the case of takings by cities
affords a check against the abuse of this power which would be
lacking in the case of the State.
As a result of this situation, the State has requested the city of
Brussels to make such takings on a large scale in the vicinity of the
new central railway station which the State is about to build in
Brussels, and has made a contract with the city under which the
State agrees to advance the money necessary for the operation and
to assume the risk of any loss resulting therefrom.
I am informed that Belgium has no law for the assessment of
betterments.
