Change ban for industrial area in Sünching extended by one year!

On October 21, 2025, the Sünching local council extended the existing change ban for the industrial area north of Südstarke GmbH for another year. These measures are intended to ensure that planning for the development of the area, in particular through the development and green space plan “GI Fabrikstrasse”, is advanced. The original closure was issued on November 23, 2023 to secure the location of the adjacent industrial operation by providing necessary expansion areas.

The change block includes specific properties with the area no. 1321 (partial area), 1322 and 1323. The aim of this regulation is to prevent changes to the affected properties that are difficult to reverse until the urban development planning has been completed. The announcement of the extension has already been published, and interested citizens can view the site plan both in the Sünching administrative community and on the municipality's website.

Purpose and legal basis of the change ban

The change ban is an instrument of German urban development law that serves to secure urban development. Their legal basis is Sections 14 to 18 of the Building Code (BauGB). According to the regulations, the change ban serves to secure the land use planning and to protect against ill-considered changes that could conflict with future urban development.

A change ban is usually valid for a period of up to two years, although an extension for an additional year is possible. In special cases, the ban can be maintained for a maximum of three years. The decision to issue a change ban must be made through a statutory resolution of the local council and then made public, as is also the case in Sünching.

Outlook on the land use planning

The municipality has determined that in the future, systems for generating electricity or heat from solar radiation energy or wind energy could also be permitted within the industrial areas, provided that this use is excluded in the future land-use planning. This reflects the aim of pursuing a clear line in the use of the area and avoiding conflicts related to use.

The enactment and maintenance of the change ban are justified both legally and from an urban planning perspective, as they serve the positive development of the industrial area. Following this approach, it is important for the municipality of Sünching to continuously monitor the objectives of the imposed closure and adjust them if necessary. The municipality emphasizes that no premature or unjustified development may take place without clear and concrete planning.

In summary, the Sünching local council is pursuing clear and sustainable goals for the development of the industrial area and for the protection of building culture interests in the region. Further information on the topic and more detailed details are available via the relevant announcement and on the municipality's website.
