In December 2019, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport announced the revision of the Enforcement Decree of the Industrial sites and Development Act. In this revision, the reinvestment ratio of development profits generated by renewing the old industrial park is delegated to the local government ordinance. According to this announcement, the reinvestment ratio can be adjusted to less than 50% of sales revenue from construction projects and 25% of land sales for non-industrial use depending on local government conditions. This study aims to investigate the policy rationale for the adjusted ratio of reinvestment in development profits and explore how Daegu City can use this policy when revising ordinances in the future. A survey was conducted with a total of 320 experts, including public corporations, public officials, and industrial site workers in the Industrial Complex Committee. We employ contingent value measurement (CVM) based on 262 valid responses. The results showed that 27% of sales from the construction business and 22% of sales from non-industrial land were derived with an appropriate reinvestment ratio. Although the results in this study might not be generalized in other regions, we provide a potential reference for other local governments who are interested in ordinance revisions in the future. Another contribution of this study is to suggest the statistical method to derive the relevant ratio.
