You can respond to the plans that the municipality has for a specific area. This can be done via e-mail, in writing or verbally.
What do you need to know
- The environmental plan states how an area may be used, for example for housing, businesses or nature
- The municipality can change the environmental plan
- An environmental plan has different phases:
- Preliminary draft of the amendment
- Draft of the change
- Established
- Valid (current)
Preliminary draft of the amendment
- In principle, you can view a preliminary draft of a change for 6 weeks at the municipality's website (administrative information) or in the Citizens' reading room in the Municipal Office
- Anyone can respond in writing or orally during this period. Please email your response to gemeente@hilversum.nl Or call 14 035. In the case of a preliminary design, the consultation responses are taken into account by the mayor and aldermen in the design of the change. The council then submits the draft of the amendment for views. Views are addressed to the municipal council. The municipal council is ultimately responsible for adopting the amendment to the environmental plan.
- With plans that have little impact on the environment, the municipality can decide to skip this step
Draft of the change
- You can view a draft of the change for 6 weeks the environmental counter (rules on the map) on the municipality's website or in the Citizens' reading room in the Municipal Office
- Anyone can respond in writing or orally during these 6 weeks. That's called submitting a statement. (see What to do)
- If you submit a view, the municipality will inform you of the final decision. It also tells how your view has been used
