Zoning plan and (agricultural) land
When starting an (agricultural) business, many aspects play a role, such as what the so-called zoning plan allows on site. A zoning plan is a municipal plan that, for instance, stipulates:
- What use may be made of a particular plot;
- What use is forbidden;
- What structures are permitted on the site;
- How high structures may be;
- Whether a permit is required to carry out work such as digging.
A zoning plan can therefore determine whether or not a livestock farm is allowed on the site. The zoning plan will also be able to regulate the permissibility of a company house. In addition, the use of land can involve many civil-law aspects relating, for example, to agricultural tenancy, ground lease, parcelling out or reallotment.
