Inclusive Environments and Access to Commercial Property
This book presents and examines the challenges and compromises required to deliver inclusivity in the existing commercial-built environment and the socio-economic benefits that could result from successfully delivering it. To illuminate the advantages of an inclusive environment to property owners, investors and service providers, the book covers the history of disability and evolution of the legislation and examines the demographics and types of disability to question the ‘one size’ ‘blanket’ approach that currently exists to providing access.Delving further into the characteristics of the commercial property sectors and individual disability-specific requirements, experienced commercial building surveyor, Adrian Tagg, analyses the contradictions in the existing legislation to establish examples of design compromise or reasonable adjustments.He seeks to contextualise public and commercial attitudes to disability and go further to demystify the term ‘reasonable adjustment’, which is used currently as a tool of compromise in providing access.The aim is to assess disability-specific requirements for access, as well as adopt a simplistic approach to developing access solutions to the existing built environment from a consultancy and user perspective. Ultimately, this publication hopes to promote accessibility and inclusion from the perspective of surveyors, investors and landlords working in commercial property.It is not just targeted at those on undergraduate or post-graduate surveying courses, as well as those early career professionals undertaking their APC or post-graduate qualifications, but also at those owning or delivering goods, services and employment from commercial premises who want to make a difference.

John Locke and the Origins of Private Property : Philosophical Explorations of Individualism, Community, and Equality
John Locke's labor theory of property is one of the seminal ideas of political philosophy and served to establish its author's reputation as one of the leading social and political thinkers of all time.Through it Locke addressed many of his most pressing concerns, and earned a reputation as an outstanding spokesman for political individualism - a reputation that lingers widely despite some partial challenges that have been raised in recent years.In this major new study Matthew Kramer offers an extensive critique of the labor theory and investigates the consequences of its downfall.With incisive analyses of the merits and failings of many aspects of Locke's political thought, Kramer advances a powerful challenge to Locke's image as an individualist.Employing a rigorously philosophical methodology, but remaining aware of the insights generated by historical approaches to Locke, Kramer concludes that Locke's political vision was in fact profoundly communitarian.

Intellectual and Cultural Property : Between Market and Community
This book focuses on the fraught relationship between cultural heritage and intellectual property, in their common concern with the creative arts.The competing discourses in international legal instruments around copyright and intangible cultural heritage are the most obvious manifestation of this troubled encounter.However, this characterization of the relationship between intellectual and cultural property is in itself problematic, not least because it reflects a fossilized concept of heritage, divided between things that are fixed and moveable, tangible and intangible.Instead the book maintains that heritage should be conceived as part of a dynamic and mutually constitutive process of community formation.It argues, therefore, for a critically important distinction between the fundamentally different concepts of not only intellectual and cultural heritage/property, but also of the market and the community.For while copyright as a private property right locates all relationships in the context of the market, the context of cultural heritage relationships is the community, of which the market forms a part but does not – and, indeed, should not – control the whole.The concept of cultural property/heritage, then, is a way of resisting the reduction of everything to its value in the market, a way of resisting the commodification, and creeping propertization, of everything. And, as such, the book proposes an alternative basis for expressing and controlling value according to the norms and identity of a community, and not according to the market value of private property rights.An important and original intervention, this book will appeal to academics and practitioners in both intellectual property and the arts, as well as legal and cultural theorists with interests in this area.

Property
Few political ideas are as divisive and controversial for some – and yet taken for granted by others – as the ownership of private property.For its defenders, private ownership is a fundamental right that protects individual freedom and ensures wider economic benefits for the community; for its critics, by contrast, property is institutionalised theft, responsible for lamentable levels of inequality and poverty. In this book, Robert Lamb explores philosophical arguments deployed to conceptualise, justify, and criticise private property ownership.He introduces the radical case against property advanced by anarchist and socialist writers, before analysing some of the most important and influential arguments in its favour.Lamb explains and assesses the various defences of property rights advanced by Locke, Hume, Hegel, J.S. Mill, and Nozick. He then shows how theorists such as John Rawls and his followers encourage us to rethink the very nature of ownership in a democratic society. This engaging synthesis of historical and contemporary theories of property will be essential reading for students and scholars of political philosophy.

Does the party not pay property tax for the property community?
Yes, the party does not pay property tax for the property community. This is because property tax is typically paid by the individual property owners within the community, rather than by the community as a whole. Each property owner is responsible for paying property tax based on the assessed value of their individual property. Therefore, the party as a whole does not pay property tax for the entire community.

How does rainwater from the neighboring property reach our property?
Rainwater from the neighboring property reaches our property through natural drainage patterns and the force of gravity. It may flow downhill or through the soil, eventually reaching our property boundaries. The topography of the land, such as slopes or depressions, can also influence the direction and flow of rainwater towards our property. Additionally, man-made structures like gutters, downspouts, or drainage systems on the neighboring property can direct rainwater towards our property.
-
Should property owners have more responsibility for their own property?
Yes, property owners should have more responsibility for their own property. They should be accountable for maintaining their property to ensure the safety and well-being of others. This includes regular maintenance, repairs, and ensuring that their property meets all safety standards. By taking on more responsibility, property owners can contribute to creating a safer and more pleasant environment for everyone.

How is the land surveying carried out in a community of property owners?
Land surveying in a community of property owners is typically carried out by licensed surveyors who use specialized equipment to measure and map the boundaries and features of the land. The surveyors will use a combination of GPS technology, total stations, and other tools to accurately determine property lines, easements, and other important details. The surveying process may involve researching historical records, physically measuring the land, and creating detailed maps and reports for the property owners. This information is crucial for resolving boundary disputes, planning new developments, and ensuring that each property owner has a clear understanding of their land boundaries.

Is the property tax levied twice when a property is divided?
No, the property tax is not levied twice when a property is divided. When a property is divided, the total property tax is apportioned based on the new assessed value of each divided parcel. Each new parcel will then be responsible for paying its own portion of the property tax based on its individual assessed value. Therefore, the property tax is not doubled, but rather divided among the new parcels based on their respective values.

What is property 2?
Property 2 refers to the principle that the order in which numbers are added does not affect the sum. In other words, for any two numbers a and b, a + b = b + a. This property is known as the commutative property of addition and is a fundamental concept in mathematics. It allows us to rearrange the numbers in an addition problem without changing the final result.

How is property released?
Property can be released through various legal processes, such as through a court order, a release deed, or a transfer of ownership. In the case of a court order, a judge may order the release of property based on a legal dispute or claim.
