"Replacement construction" of a fence no longer permitted according to the development plan

35 meters long

the construction

will disappear anyway

You will need a 35m construction access? Isn’t that excessive? Even if it’s really necessary. Then I wouldn’t do anything there except maybe hide the ugliness from my eyes with reeds, bamboo, or willows. But if you absolutely want to put something new there, you will have to build at least a similar structure, like a wooden plank fence, or comply with the development plan.

You, will need 35m of construction access?
Isn't that exaggerated?

That would certainly be exaggerated. That’s why it won’t happen.
But: Currently, the "bulwark" is on the side of the property that will later be the development side. Our front yard will eventually be bordered neither by a wooden bulwark nor by a double rod mat fence or a tall hedge. Therefore, any tall privacy structure that is there at that time will be removed. That’s what the development plan requires and that’s also what we want.

Then I wouldn’t do anything there except maybe hide the ugliness in front of my eyes with reed, bamboo, or willows.
But if you absolutely want to put something new there, then you will have to build at least an equivalent structure, so a wooden plank fence or simply comply with the development plan.

I don’t necessarily want to. However, the condition of the existing structure determines what I will ultimately do. If a replacement is only possible one-to-one anyway, then the evaluation shifts in favor of the existing structure and the necessary repair work for it. If it had been somewhat more flexible, with more room for design, I would have considered another solution.

In the end, it’s important to me that the property looks well cared for and tidy. I don’t want the impression to arise that it’s abandoned and gradually deteriorating. If the period between purchase and development were limited to one year, this question wouldn’t even arise – but with the planned timeframe of 3-4 years, it’s different for me.

...that the cherry laurel bushes, which I am planting there over a good 35 meters, have a future.

Only thuja is missing. :rolleyes:

It is not about creating a permanent state with the replacement structure. ... In the end, it is about the property looking maintained and tidy. I do not want the impression to arise that it is abandoned and gradually falling into ruin.

I consider that wishful thinking and somewhere a bit of a lie. Nobody builds a fence that they will tear down again in 4 years just so the property does not look abandoned. Or do you have too much money to throw away like that? Basically, I only know of protection of existing rights for existing structures. If you tear it down, the protection is gone and the development plan applies. The question is whether replacing the slats would count as a repair. It should, as long as the fence does not differ in essence (height, color, material, appearance, etc.). However, if nothing of the old fence remains, it will be hard to have this accepted as a repair. Especially since the city is already watching your fence like a hawk.

It is planned for the sides, which is why there is no room for the cherry laurel bushes. o_O

I consider that wishful thinking and somewhat a fib. No one builds a fence that they will tear down again in 4 years just so the property doesn't look abandoned. Or do you have too much money to just flush it down the toilet like that?

To put it briefly: yes!

Thanks to everyone else for the factual input free of insinuations and rudeness. The question I initially posed is sufficiently answered for me. :)

Overall an environmental damage that could hardly be worse.

rude phrasing

May I ask what you find rude about it? Is it the "ugly" that personally and taste-wise offends you or your idea?

This is probably the ugliest thing you can impose on your surroundings and the city.

I don’t find "shabby" exactly more polite when it comes to environmentally friendly treatments.

I think what bothers me currently is mostly the somewhat shabby appearance.

Well, what cities or municipalities want or don’t want and what is right and fair are sometimes two different things.

Even these thoughts of yours could be considered "shabby"... if they’re not even that.
