The planning permission procedure also checks compliance with ancillary building law, including in particular the protection of historical monuments. A building permit therefore also includes any necessary approval of ancillary building law. If the building project contravenes specialist law, the building application cannot be approved.

• Approval under monument protection law
• Soil protection for material brought in from outside from 600 cubic meters (terrain modeling)
• Nursing home law for care facilities
• Immission control for harmful environmental effects
• Food hygiene for food processing
• Aircraft noise protection for military protection zones at Erbenheim airport
• Road law for the construction and modification of buildings within the construction ban zones of federal highways
• Veterinary regulations for animal husbandry
• Mining in the case of structures in construction restriction areas
• Nature conservation for interventions in nature and landscape
• Railroad law for the construction of buildings near railroad lines
• Air traffic for the erection of structures in construction protection areas of airports
• Water law for the construction and extension of buildings in flood zones

In addition to the building permit, other permits from ancillary building law may also be required for your building project.
These are, for example

Tree protection
Permission to fell protected trees or to carry out extensive pruning measures on protected trees.

Unrestricted (major) authorization to submit building documents

Persons who are authorized to use the professional title of architect or who are entered in the list of engineers authorized to submit building plans are authorized to submit building plans for special buildings.

The following list serves as a guide as to which building documents must generally be enclosed with an application for planning permission for a special building. You will find out whether these building documents must also be submitted in your specific individual case during preliminary discussions as part of our building consultation. You are therefore welcome to make an appointment for a discussion prior to submitting your application.

Due to the sometimes complex nature of special building projects, the law does not provide for an approval period or even a fictitious effect. In principle, processing begins when the building application has been submitted in full with verifiable building documents and is processed by us as quickly as possible.

Notification of the start of construction and completion
The building inspectorate must be notified in writing of the start of construction at least one week in advance (notification of start of construction BAB 17). This notification must also be accompanied by the required structural engineering certificates (see link below) and the names of those involved in the construction work.

Completion of the building shell and final completion of the building must be notified to the building inspectorate at least two weeks in advance, stating the date of completion.

Use before completion
If you wish to use your building before completion, you must notify the building inspectorate at least one week in advance. Early use is only permitted if the project can be sensibly divided into construction phases and these can be safely used individually. In addition, the parking spaces required for the use must have been created. This must be submitted together with the notification of early commissioning, as well as the necessary structural engineering evidence and certificates. Otherwise, the building inspectorate will prohibit use within one week due to violations of public safety and order.

The building inspectorate may, at its own discretion, carry out an inspection at the time of premature commissioning as well as at the time of shell construction and final completion.

Please use the forms from the building permit decree for the respective notifications.
