1. What is the reason why this illegal building was not demolished but “confiscated”?

Whether it is demolition, confiscation, fines, readjustment of construction plans, re-approval procedures, etc., they are all a series of measures to deal with illegal buildings, and "confiscation" is also one of the methods stipulated by law.

We made this decision based on the actual situation of the building, in the process of investigation and evidence collection, in accordance with legal provisions and in combination with the actual situation of the house.

The first floor of this building is legal, and on this basis, reconstruction and expansion have been carried out. The construction method is special and the stress system is also very complex. If the illegal parts of the building are demolished, the safety of the legal parts of the house will also be seriously affected. Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, it will be confiscated according to law. The legal part of the house itself is owned by the village collective, and the property rights of this part will be returned to the village collective. Other than this, we will deal with it by relevant departments in accordance with the "Measures for the Disposal of Illegal Buildings in Urban Areas of Hangzhou". Specific plans will be responded to later.

At present, we have received no objections from the parties involved.

2. This building has become an Internet celebrity attraction. Will it continue to have this function after it is confiscated in the future?

From the perspective of this case, it is still in the publicity stage and no formal punishment has been imposed. How to deal with it next must first be based on the law and rationally utilized within the legal framework, which remains to be studied.

3. What is the latest status of the house now? Have all personal belongings been moved away?

From a legal perspective, it is still in the public notice stage. The relevant cleanup and vacating work will not be started until the administrative penalty decision officially takes effect. During the subsequent vacating process, personal items will remain privately owned.
