Land use plan
The land use plan(FNP) covers the entire municipal area and outlines the planned use of the municipal land. The statements in the land use plan refer to the intended urban development for a longer period of time and thus characterize the urban development objectives of the city. The land use plan does not make specific statements about individual plots of land, but rather presents the land uses in larger contexts.
The land use plan has no direct legal effect on citizens; in particular, it does not create building rights. It is an internal administrative guideline for subsequent development plans as well as for the plans of other planning bodies and specialist authorities. In addition, it is an indirect guideline for controlling building activities in outdoor areas.
The land use plan of the pilgrimage town of Kevelaer was redrawn in 1996 and has since been adapted to current developments in over 70 amendments. Here you will find the current procedures for amending the land use plan, which you are welcome to comment on. The land use plan with the legally binding amendments can be called up in the GeoPortal-Niederrhein. However, binding or legally binding information on the land use plan can only be provided by the city planning department of the pilgrimage city of Kevelaer on the basis of the original documents.
The preparation of the land use plan or the amendment takes place in several steps. You have the opportunity to comment twice during the process, at the early participation stage (step 4) and at the participation stage (step 7):
