You are partly right, but nobody can stop others from purchasing land that is meant for sale. When the price is right, buy it and it's yours. And when you sell it, and the price is good, it will be sold.
If a certain leader doesn't want you to own land, the only thing he can do is buy it before you can.
can I get a source on that Info? I thought mayors had all rights to not sell land
because:
"...can go in, insert blank deeds obtained from a scribe, and then drag/drop them onto the parcels of land on the table and fill in the values.
Anyone can come look at the table, see the unclaimed parcels of land with the "deeds" pinned to them, sign their name, put any required money "into the table", and take the deeds. Poof! They've purchased the land.
Once you've purchased a plot of land, you own it and can legally build on it. And before anyone asks, yes you can re-sell your recently purchased land. You can even build a Land Management Table of your own that shows all the land you own and put it up for sale "

That link sounds like you have every right as a settlement chief executive to just not put up any deed for sale
