Distances and rules

An ornamental pond is set back from the plot boundary so it stays accessible and water does not seep to the neighbour, and kept away from a drinking-water source so it cannot contaminate a well or borehole.

Official property check Open Rules on the Map and run the Permit Check for the planned activity Netherlands — Environment and Planning Portal: rules and permit check

Important limitation

This is a planning aid, not a legal opinion. Before construction, check the local land-use rules, easements, the network/utility operator’s requirements and neighbour buildings.
