Responding to construction projects and area developments

Would you like to voice your opinion about a construction project? Or about the development of a particular area of the city? Then you can send a comment online. We call this participation. 

In this phase, we look at whether a construction project of the municipality or others can go ahead. Or we investigate what changes are needed in an area. The plans are not finally decided at this point.

How does it work?
