if the owner owns land adjacent to the interest in land, any benefit accruing to the adjacent land because of—

the coming into effect of the approved development scheme; or

the construction of, or improvement to, infrastructure on the adjacent land under the approved development scheme (other than infrastructure funded by the owner) before the claim for compensation was made;
