Private green area - Rights and obligations?

Hello,

by chance, we had the opportunity to reserve a plot of approximately 900 sqm. Upon closer reading of the development plan, we have now seen that the 900 sqm includes about 150 sqm of private green space. In the regulation, alongside instructions for planting, the following text appears: "The establishment of foot, bicycle, and bridle paths with a maximum width of 3m and constructed with bound gravel is permitted." As mentioned, the area is designated as private green space in the development plan.
How should I understand the text in the regulation now? Is the municipality possibly authorized to use this private green space as a bicycle, foot, or bridle path?

I have already searched for a definition of "private green space," but haven’t really found anything definitive. Can you help me with that? What rights and obligations come with such a private green space?

Best regards

You should ask the responsible authority.

Does anyone else have a private green space that belongs to the property?

Hello,

Is the municipality possibly entitled to use this private green area as a bike, pedestrian, or bridle path?

Yes; in my opinion, that should be reflected in the price per square meter (for 150 sqm).

What rights and obligations come with such a private green area?

Usually, you have to maintain such property shares; you should assign them "visually" to your garden but must not exclude their use by planting or even fences.

Eve has already answered correctly; ask the selling municipality. Only there will you receive the information you need to consider a final purchase decision.

Rhenish greetings

But why is it then called "private green space" if it can be used publicly? Is there an "official" definition, a legal text that describes a "private green space"? We will follow up with the municipality first thing Monday morning.

Maybe ask whether this is a leased property? Sounds like a right of way and utility easement. But it could also be a mistake.
