After Form A, the process does not stop.

A Section 6 Notice is part of the road compensation process. Where the Governor is satisfied that the proposed road scheme is in the public interest, a notice may be issued giving the NRA the power to take the land after the required notice period.

This does not mean compensation has already been finalized.

Affected persons should continue to keep all notices, forms, plans and supporting documents together. The next important form in the process is Form B – Claim for Compensation.

Learn more about the road compensation process by visiting Cayman Land Info.

πŸ“ What is Form A?
If your land may be affected by a proposed road scheme, you will receive Form A as part of your Section 3 Notice package.
Form A is the Notice of Intention to Make a Claim for Compensation. In simple terms, it lets the National Roads Authority (NRA) know that you intend to make a claim if your land is affected by the proposed road scheme.

⚠️ Remember: Form A is not your final compensation claim. It is the first step in protecting your right to make a claim later in the process.
⏳ Form A must be submitted within 90 days of the Section 3 Notice being published in the Gazette.

The form requests information such as:
πŸ‘€ Your name and contact details
πŸ“ Your Block and Parcel number
🏑 Your interest in the property
🌳 Details of any land, buildings, trees, crops, fences, or other items that may be affected by the proposed road scheme
Please read the form carefully, complete it in full, and submit it before the deadline.

πŸ—ΊοΈ What is a Boundary Plan?
A Boundary Plan is one of the documents that may be included with a Section 3 Notice package.
It is a map that illustrates the proposed road alignment and the anticipated boundaries of the road scheme. It may also show nearby Block and Parcel numbers, helping affected landowners identify how the proposed road may relate to their property.
πŸ“ In the example shown:
πŸ›£οΈ The proposed road alignment is highlighted.
πŸ“ Surrounding parcels are displayed to provide context and help you understand the proposed acquisition area.
If you receive a Section 3 Notice package, review all of the documents carefully. The Boundary Plan is an important tool for understanding the proposed road scheme and how it may affect your land.

πŸ“… What is Declared Day?
In the road compensation process, the Declared Day is the date the Section 3 Notice is published in the Gazette.
Why is it important?
πŸ’° It sets the valuation date. This means the value of the affected property for compensation purposes is assessed as at the Declared Day.
⏳ It starts the countdown for submitting Form A – Notice of Intention to Make a Claim for Compensation.
πŸ“Œ Form A must be submitted within 90 days of the Gazette publication. If it is not submitted on time, you may lose your right to make a claim unless good cause for the delay can be shown.

If you receive a Section 3 Notice package, check the Gazette publication date carefully and mark your deadline to ensure your claim rights are protected.

A Section 3 Notice is an important step in the compulsory acquisition process for road schemes.
It may be issued where land is proposed to be acquired for a new public road or for the widening of an existing road. The notice identifies affected parcels and begins the formal process for persons with an interest in the land to protect their right to claim compensation.
If you receive a Section 3 Notice, read the documents carefully. Your package may include:
πŸ“„ Gazette Notice
πŸ“ Form A
πŸ“‹ Form B
πŸ“ Boundary Plan
πŸ“˜ Guide to Compensation

Understanding these documents and meeting the required deadlines is essential to protecting your rights.

A Section 3 Notice shows the proposed road alignment and indicates an intention to acquire land for a new public road or the widening of an existing road.

The date the Section 3 Notice is published in the Cayman Islands Gazette is known as the declared day, and this date sets the valuation date.

Once the Section 3 Notice is published, affected landowners will be sent details of the scheme and must complete Form A – Notice of Intention to Make a Claim for Compensation within 90 days of the publication date.

⚠️ This is an important deadline.

In our next post, we'll explain what Form A is and why it should not be missed.

Who Handles Road Compensation Matters?

The Valuation & Estates Office (VEO) plays a key role in road compensation matters across the Cayman Islands.

For compulsory acquisitions associated with road improvement projects, the VEO acts as an agent of the National Roads Authority (NRA), working closely with the Survey Section to assess compensation, negotiate with affected landowners, and facilitate the settlement of claims.

Over the coming weeks, we'll be breaking down the road compensation process and explaining:

πŸ“Œ Form A – Notice of Intention to Make a Claim
πŸ“Œ Form B – Claim for Compensation
πŸ“Œ The effect of Section 3, Section 5, and Section 6 Notices
πŸ“Œ The importance of meeting statutory deadlines and understanding your rights throughout the process

Follow along as we guide you through the key stages of road compensation and help make the process easier to understand.

Compulsory acquisition for Road Schemes may occur where land is required for a public road scheme, such as a creation of a new public road or the widening/improvement of an existing road.

The process includes formal notices, legal timeframes, and the opportunity for affected landowners or persons with an interest in the land to make a claim for compensation.

The official guidance sets the Roads Act framework for compulsory purchase in respect of road schemes and the basis on which compensation is claimed, assessed and paid. We also recommend that anyone whose land is subject to a compulsory acquisition notice should seek professional advice.

This series will explain the process in simple steps, including key notices, Forms A and B, compensation assessment and where to find official information.
