The announcement and public consultation will take place on Wednesday, 9 December 2026 at 5.00 pm at the Hotel/Saalbetrieb Rammelkamp, Lingener Str. 306, 48531 Nordhorn.
The parties involved are the owners and leaseholders of the plots of land within the land consolidation area (participants), as well as the holders of rights in respect of these plots and public bodies, in so far as their interests are affected by the land consolidation (third parties).
During this meeting, the key elements of the land consolidation plans will be explained.
The land consolidation plan summarises the results of the land consolidation procedure. In accordance with Section 59(3) of the Land Consolidation Act (FlurbG), each participant shall receive an extract from the land consolidation plan setting out their new plots of land by area and value, as well as the ratio of their total compensation to the land they contributed and the financial adjustments required as a result. A leaflet explaining the supporting documents is enclosed with the files.
Where the plots of land are jointly owned, the recipient of the extracts must inform the other co-owners of their contents.
No personal letters will be sent to third parties (such as tenants and other holders of rights in respect of land). They will have the opportunity to find out about the outcome of the proceedings at the information sessions taking place from 30 November 2026 to 3 December 2026.
There is no obligation for the parties concerned to attend the hearing on 9 December 2026. However, it is expressly pointed out that, in accordance with Section 59(2) of the Land Consolidation Act (FlurbG), objections to the land consolidation plan may only be raised at the hearing on 9 December 2026 at 5.00 pm in order to avoid exclusion. Where possible, a written statement of grounds should be submitted.
Parties may be represented by an authorised representative. The authorised representative must provide proof of their authority by means of a written power of attorney and submit this to the land consolidation authority upon request. A form for this purpose can be obtained from the Office for Regional Development.
In accordance with Sections 114 and 134 of the Land Consolidation Act (FlurbG), it is hereby noted that any interested parties who do not attend the hearing on 9 December 2026 at 5.00 pm and who have not submitted a statement by the end of the hearing, shall be deemed to have agreed to the results and the content of the land consolidation plan (Section 134(1) of the Land Consolidation Act). Parties who are represented by an authorised representative who has not been duly appointed shall also be deemed not to have appeared.
