The success of any project starts with the right site. It is all about complying with a multitude of legal requirements and overcoming obstacles. During that process we offer you comprehensive support. We assess conflicting regional, or land-use plans for their efficacy, advise clients on the drawing up or adjustment of new land-use and zoning plans. We negotiate the required urban planning agreements and answer all relevant questions: Which services vis-à-vis the town/city or local council are permitted and which ones may even be punishable?
“Lease is Power” (Pacht ist Macht)
The civil-law agreements for the site, power lines, and access roads need to be effective and flexible. But all other agreements entered into during the construction and operational phase also need to be legally effective and individually adjusted to suit the project. This is the only way to ensure that all risks such as the non-availability of system types after years of legal disputes are covered. Otherwise, the best building right is worth nothing.
As soon as building rights have been obtained, planning permission must be procured. We advise you in particular on planning permissions under the German immission control law as in the case of wind parks, or under sectoral planning law as in the case of power lines. Even after planning permission has been obtained, issues that arise play an important role when it comes to retrospective optimisation measures or system modifications.
We also advise you on sectoral planning law concerning projects such as large overhead power lines as well as on the legislation regarding expropriation and compensation procedures.
