Distance from property boundary with a lower neighboring plot

I was the one who did not sign because the roof borders my property.

And that was a good thing. By signing, you agree to the construction project, including deviations from the state building code, and forfeit your rights to object. Therefore, it is advisable to examine the plans carefully. It is best to obtain copies and attend a consultation appointment at the building authority or consult an uninvolved architect.

You do not have to justify why you do not want to sign. You can (but do not have to) inform the municipality or building supervisory authority in writing of your explicit non-consent and/or your objections to the construction project.

If the construction project is approved despite the lack of consent, the building permit must be delivered to you. In that case, consulting a specialist lawyer could be helpful (observe deadlines!).

Hello Escroda,

thank you for the advice, the thorough review and copy would have been better from the start. Now we are a little wiser again. You never stop learning.

I will finish the reasoning now and wait to see what happens.

Sunny greetings

But not with more than 3m wall height, depending on the state building code.

That's correct, as I already wrote. But the minimum height according to the state building code should be 2.75. Depending on the construction, it can still be achieved without major problems.

As usual, a few pictures are worth more than 20 pages of description. What is the height difference anyway and how is it secured against slipping?
