List of types of use for new development area in the private sector

Hello everyone,

here in the area the discussion is currently breaking out whether the species usage list attached to the development plan is binding for the entire private area. In my opinion, this only applies to the planting requirement in the private area from the green development plan. Because in the textual provisions, only the planting requirement, which is usually limited to individual deciduous trees, refers to the binding nature of the species usage list. Or does this fundamentally also apply to all other plants in the private area, including hedge planting?

A literal excerpt from the plan would be helpful, otherwise we can hardly say anything meaningful about it here.

Yes, I have to agree with you on that.

General Provisions

1. The planting requirements entered in the graphic part of the development plan and thus established are to be understood in such a way that the marked locations of the trees may be shifted by a maximum of 5 m. – The neighbor law of Baden-Württemberg must be observed.

2. For all planting requirements, only site-appropriate native species from the species usage list according to Table 3 (pages 12-13) are to be used.

3. The individual trees and shrub stocks with planting obligation entered in the development plan are to be permanently preserved and maintained. In the case of construction measures in the immediate vicinity of these shrubs, special measures must be taken to protect them. Dead shrubs must be replaced within one growth period.

4. For individual tree plantings, an unpaved area of 6 m2 per tree must be ensured. Smaller tree pits are permitted, provided that the trees receive a well-rootable substrate.

Provisions for the Private Sector

11. Driveways and parking spaces are to be made with permeable pavement or turf grid stones or gravel lawn. Impervious surfaces are also permitted, but only where the resulting rainwater can be harmlessly discharged into the adjacent terrain on the property itself and infiltrated or fed into an existing rainwater cistern.

12. The area planting A1 is to be established as a planting obligation area with a 5 m or 3 m wide hedge (compare plan inscription) made of native shrubs. The shrub species to be used are according to the species usage list Table 3. Planting density: 1 shrub per 2.5 m2 of planting obligation area (correction according to municipal council resolution of 20.12.2016). The proportion of thorn shrubs must be at least 1/3. Additionally, one deciduous tree must be planted per 50 m2. The planting must take place within one growing season after completion of the building facility (move-in date).

13. For every commenced 250 m2 of plot area, one deciduous tree (trunk circumference 12-14 cm) is to be planted on private plots according to the species usage list Table 3. The trees specified by planting obligations or planting binding can be credited towards this.

14. Flat roofs are to be extensively greened with at least 8 cm of substrate. This also applies to roofs of garages and carports. Underground garage roofs that are not built over or used for access purposes are to be covered with soil fill and designed as vegetation areas for lawn, perennials, or ground cover.

Wow, that is very explicit. I am glad that with us only the hedges and non-stone front gardens are regulated.

I don't actually find it that detailed. In my opinion, most of the regulations refer to planting requirements. And except for the area greening A1, which is present on some properties at the edge of the area, there are no regulations that refer to the species usage list? So accordingly, there are also no regulations for other planting including hedges, etc. Also, in the section for enclosures, there is no reference to the species usage list or requirements for species.

Assuming you have a 600 sqm plot, then due to three started 250 sqm sections, you have three mandatory trees from the list and the fourth, etc., at your free choice. Further assuming you have to establish an A1 accompanying green planting at one end of the plot and not at the other, then the species list applies once there as well and free choice applies at the other end. If one of the three mandatory trees already exists - in my opinion, regardless of whether it also corresponds to the list - you still have to plant two according to the list and any others at will.
