Spatial procedure
Permits
In March ’26, the municipal council approved the publication of the draft permit for permanent planning integration. Following publication, there was a period during which objections could be submitted. This period has now concluded, and we are awaiting the municipality’s decision to grant the permit. A long and thorough process preceded the municipal council’s approval:
- A permit for permanent spatial integration was applied for with the municipality in February ’23.
- At the end of March ’23, this application was withdrawn and a new, integrated permit for the spatial procedure was applied for.
- In February ’24, we received a request for amendment, after which we submitted the new documents in October ’24.
- At the beginning of January 2026, with one final adjustment, the final documents were submitted to the council.
The nature permits were applied for by our ecological consultancy to the province in February ’23. One nature permit has since been granted and is irrevocable. For the other nature permit, a draft decision has been in place since the end of January ’26. We are now awaiting the further processing of this permit.
