As Mike described it, it is completely correct. The retaining wall is to be constructed in a U-shape. Both the slope from east to west is to be leveled and, as far as possible, also that from north to south. Since 2m is quite little here, I would like to aim for 3m.

: That’s how I understood it.

Edit: Yes, it is like that

This has recently been seen with alarmingly increasing frequency, probably correlating with the fact that only "leftover" plots are found: the desire to prop up a hillside plot so that it becomes level in both dimensions. Mostly because the budget only allows for "without a basement." Then people prefer to celebrate excessive retaining wall orgies, no matter how awful it looks, and even if it costs twice as much as if they had built with a basement.

This used to be called "counting your chickens before they hatch." A slope remains a slope remains a slope. You can soften it, but you can't make it disappear.

So if you dream of having 4 m at the slanting corner while the lowest corner remains at the current level, then on average it would only be 2 m: forget it. And think about how you'd feel if your diagonal neighbor put such a tower right next to your corner in the opposite direction.

So on the one hand, the budget for a basement is available and also has a view of the entire area. But then I'll continue planning. Thank you

And why do you want to level it completely then?

How do I determine the original ground level if the neighbor to the south of my property has removed material from the first meter towards the north, so that no debris falls onto his property?

Assuming 2m are allowed above [uGN], now the neighbor has dug out 0.5m on the slope. Then I would have a 2.5m wall in places. How do I explain this to the authorities?
