Basic information
Before you construct an installation that requires planning permission, it can be useful to make certain thematic preliminary declarations before submitting the planning application in order to reduce the risk of subsequent rescheduling as part of the main procedure.
This may be the case for the following issues, for example:
- Accessibility (structural)
- Issuing a building gap certificate
- Tree protection (ancillary building law)
- Structural approval
- Flying constructions
- Open space design
- Determination of house numbers
- Children's play areas (close to buildings)
- Mobility management measures
- Type approval
- Early appointment of a test engineer
- Miscellaneous
You therefore have the opportunity to contact the building supervisory authority or the responsible specialist authority in advance. Please submit the documents required for the decision-making process.
Please submit the decision or the interim notification from the authority together with the other building documents as part of the main procedure.
Depending on the nature of the matter, reference will be made to a possible obligation to pay fees. This may be necessary in particular if additional authorities are involved.
A new application must be submitted for each of several decisions.
This application route is also used for matters relating to temporary buildings in accordance with Section 76 BremLBO.
Building easement procedures in accordance with Section 82 BremLBO must be carried out via a separate application route.
Requirements
You will receive confirmation if the submitted documents comply with the legal requirements in accordance with the relevant public law regulations.
If your building project does not yet comply with the public building regulations, you will receive an interim notification. The outstanding issues must then be finally clarified as part of the subsequent building inspection procedure.
