Richter tipping construction fees: Brandenburg under pressure!

A blow against the construction fee schedule in Brandenburg! The Higher Administrative Court of Berlin-Brandenburg has decided that the current fee regulations violate the state constitution. In particular, the command of connexity that the country obliges to fully compensate for the costs when transferring tasks to the municipalities was not complied with. This judgment was made according to a standard control procedure that was strained by four counties-Elbe-Elster, Havelland, Oberspreewald-Lausitz and Spree-Neiße-because they saw the fees as not cost-covering.

The judges Rügen spicy: a thorough cost forecast is required, which Brandenburg had neglected. Rising personnel expenses remained particularly difficult. The decision means that the construction fee schedule is initially overridden and urgently needs to be redesigned. It remains to be seen whether the fees are now increasing or the country will meet the municipalities in any other way, such as www.sueddeutsche.de reported.
