Fast-track military investments and new rules for property expropriation

The act accelerates key defense and public safety projects (such as the 'East Shield' program) and simplifies land acquisition. For citizens, this means potential property expropriation with compensation (including financial bonuses) and the creation of protective zones around military areas with building restrictions.
Key points
Fast-track expropriation: The state can acquire private land for strategic defense investments in exchange for compensation.
Financial bonuses for quick handover: Owners who voluntarily hand over their property within 30 days will receive 5% more compensation, plus an additional 10,000 PLN for moving costs if a residential building is involved.
Protective zones around military areas: Local governors can establish zones banning home construction, forestry, or storage of flammable materials. Owners are entitled to compensation or can demand a property buyout.
Access to private land: Military investors can enter private property to conduct preliminary research (e.g., geological surveys) before construction, with compensation guaranteed for any damages.
Noise limits: The act defines maximum noise levels allowed to reach neighboring areas (such as health resorts or residential estates) from closed military zones.
Protection of allotment gardens: The simplified land acquisition rules for strategic defense investments do not apply to family allotment gardens.
Simplified military procurement: Public procurement laws will not apply to the purchase of tested drone and anti-drone systems approved by the Minister of Defense.
