Rezoning gives nothing but the right to rebuild your own property as you wish to. No one is being forced to sell.

I think it depends on how strict the zoning is. The US has a tendency for relatively strict command economy style exclusive zoning.

That is still a permission to build, not an obligation to build, no matter how strict the zoning is.
