Connection to the neighbors' inspection shaft!

Hello!

I have a question!
Planning a new building in NRW!
It concerns the connection of wastewater!

A new connection costs about €1500 per meter (6) from the property boundary to the middle of the street!

Part of the property belongs to us, the other part to the parents! On this there is an inspection shaft! Are we allowed to connect to it? The fees would then be obsolete. The connection is almost on the boundary and on the driveway jointly planned by the architect.

The drainage application refers to the fact that an application must be submitted! Apparently, the principle applies that every property must be connected!

Does anyone have experience with this topic?

Basically possible. We did almost the same thing for similar reasons. You have to talk to the responsible caseworker. They were very cooperative with us.

We did it that way. However, the [Grunddienstbarkeit] must be registered with the parents. But even if it is possible, you will have to pay connection fees. For us, in 2006, it was €1,800.

That sounds good at first. Ultimately, the question is of course on what basis an application is accepted or rejected.

Have you paid connection fees for wastewater? To whom? To the city, or do you mean the costs for the connection in general. That would be done by the shell builder and would of course involve costs.

The water connection is of course additional, but has nothing to do with wastewater.

New information: The city only grants the building permit if we completely redevelop! The reason given to the architect was that leak tests are generally not carried out for neighbors! Can someone help and have tips?

Offer to pay for the leak test yourself?
Submit a written application?

You have to pay for it anyway yourself...

Submit a written application?

Well, the municipality can just say no. It’s also somewhat understandable that every property should be developed individually. Also with regard to the fact that ownership can change.
Close your eyes, open your wallet, and push through.
