Deviation of dormer height from building permit

The envious ones are often those who have adhered to the BPL and had to hold back in favor of their unchecked desires. And then they simply don’t understand that the neighbor has more guts and boldly tries out what was possible for them but was denied. If it goes through, they feel left behind because they didn’t have the courage, so the neighbor has to pay, and then they are satisfied with themselves again.

I don't quite see it that way. If a uniform height for the dormers is specified, it has an impact on the cityscape. If everyone then builds however they please, it looks like a mess. Sure, 20 cm of dormer probably isn't a big deal now, but once someone gets away with it, it will be taken as a free pass for everyone else.

I think it's nicer if a city or town at least has some kind of style and isn't just cluttered. Anyone who needs an exception can ask, but should then also expect that it might not be allowed.

The envious are ...

Now, not all people who are bothered by a construction are envious. It is quite simple and a shortcut to simply accuse a critic of envy when one disregards a rule.
provides two immediately understandable reasons free of envy: aesthetics and sense of order.

: It's a bit unfortunate for you. I would talk to the carpenter and have 3 solution options to choose from:
1. Cost-neutral change of the execution planning to 2.55. (Error correction)
2. Joint attempt to officially get the 2.75 approved.
3. Simply build 2.75 and shift the cost risk for any penalties or dismantling to the carpenter (which he probably won't want).

I simply wouldn't risk the 2.75.

No... applying for another change now will delay the construction indefinitely again. So the only option left is option 1: adjust the [Ausführungsplanung].

Have you already spoken with the people? I have also submitted new plans with a different total height for my project. I had to persuade the people very very very well. But after 2-3 weeks, I had the stamp from the mayor and the district office on it.

At the pace here in the city, this will take months, and unfortunately, I can't wait that long anymore.
