Service Description
Landscape planning provides the necessary basis for taking ecological relationships into account.
In addition to safeguarding nature and landscape, landscape planning in Schleswig-Holstein contributes to accelerating approval procedures. The supra-local objectives and requirements of nature conservation are presented at state level in a landscape programme . Local needs and measures for nature conservation and landscape management are presented in landscape plans at municipal level on the basis of the landscape programme. The landscape plans are to be regarded as a nature conservation supplement to the land use plans to be drawn up by the municipalities.
Current landscape plans provide benchmarks for the sustainable development of natural areas, on which other specialist planning can be oriented.
In particular, with a comprehensive inventory and assessment of nature and landscape as well as a formulation of objectives, current landscape plans are an important basis for environmental impact assessments and the impact assessment of interventions in nature and landscape. In the landscape plans, special value is attached to the biotope network, including a different system of protected areas.
Decisions on future use of the ecosystem as well as on nature conservation measures can be made transparent with the preparation of landscape plans. Ecological relationships must therefore be presented in a comprehensible manner. Information is needed about the function and values of areas and spaces as well as about the importance of these areas for nature and landscape.
