Land consolidation : an instrument to provide areas for water retention by mutual consent

Helle, Ralf

The flexible procedures laid down in the Land Consolidation Act make it possible to solve land use conflicts, to make required land available and to secure the result permanently. In the context of the ecologically orientated flood protection the river Lippe will be presented as an example of realization. Supported by these procedures, which closely involve the landowners and the planning authorities, large-scale projects, for example to provide areas for water retention, were implemented there by mutual consent.
