A land-use plan (binding urban land-use planning) is an essential part of the urban land-use planning laid down by law. It is to be Land use plan (preparatory urban land use planning) and regulates the urban development and order in the area for a delimited area of application by means of legally binding determinations.

The development plan thus specifies how the land it contains is to be used and built on. Finally, the legally binding development plan is usually the prerequisite for the approval of building applications. At the end of a procedure, the municipal council of the large district town of Schramberg adopts the development plan as a statute. This procedural step and the associated public announcement make the development plan legally binding. It thus has the effect of law on citizens and investors as well as the municipality / city administration.

Until it becomes legally binding, a development plan goes through various procedural steps. You can find out about these in the following graphic "Simplified flow chart for the preparation of a land-use plan in the standard procedure" (see below).

In detail, we would like to inform you about the possibility of participation in corresponding procedures. As part of the procedure to be carried out, the land-use plan goes through one or more stages of participation by the public and authorities as well as other public bodies. Depending on the type of procedure, early participation and public display are provided for by law. In accelerated or simplified procedures, early participation can be dispensed with.

During both the early participation and the public display, all citizens - i.e. the public - and the authorities as well as other public agencies have the opportunity to submit their relevant suggestions, concerns and affected parties triggered by the development planning. The municipal council of the Great District City of Schramberg discusses the comments submitted in the procedure and decides whether and how these are to be taken into account in the respective development plan. This is referred to as "weighing up". This ensures that all concerns relevant to planning are collected and that this leads to a fair as well as complete as possible weighing of private and public interests.

Notification of the public about the relevant participation periods and display locations is announced in the daily newspaper and on the municipal website. If the development plan procedure is carried out for a plan area in the districts of Tennenbronn or Waldmössingen, the information is additionally provided in the Tennenbronner Gazette or Newsletter Waldmössingen.
