Development plans & statutes
The development plans and statutes according to the Building Code (BauGB) can be viewed by anyone at any time from the responsible department together with the justifications and summary statements (§ 6 (5) BauGB or § 10 (3) BauGB). If necessary, contact the responsible department "Department 3 - Construction" (For contact details, see the “Contact Persons” section on this page).
In addition, the development plan that has come into force must be accompanied by a summary declaration of the way in which environmental concerns and the results of public and official participation were taken into account (§ 10a (1) BauGB).
The provisions of the old BauGB apply to development plans whose drawing up decision was made before June 24, 2004. According to the old regulations, the development plan only needs to be accompanied by justification without an environmental report.
