Advice on Building Permit Problem


Questioner

In 2008 we bought a dilapidated, uninhabitable house of 44m². With a residential destination. We demolished the rear facade of the house, and with a permit 'enlarged the house', and built a house at the back of it of 80m. All residential facilities are located in the new part. The original 44m² house was too small for a realistic residential purpose. Our extension is approved and we are in possession of a building permit for a converted residential house. We then applied for a permit to build a 90m shed. This one was approved. The barn has been built. After half a year, the building regulations committee advised the municipality to revoke the building permit for the barn, because the house falls under 'accessory building' and was wrongly called a main residence (original home). Building permit for shed gone! After all, you're only allowed to add 100m... So our brand new shed has to go again. What else can we do? The 'extension' of the house is completely interwoven with the original house, the 'extension' is not subordinate to the original house

This is an unlawful decision by your municipality, which has acted very negligently. This is reason enough to immediately claim damages in the objection after a decision if demolition is necessary. Has it been investigated whether a permit can still be granted despite this, and if so, on what grounds? I can conduct a customized legal and case law review for you to determine whether a permit is still possible. It is, of course, possible that your municipality is once again not carrying out the work diligently. Please contact me for more information.
