Does anyone foresee any other permit (other than for clearing out cardboard forest) issues for Giga Berlin like building permits, roads etc etc. ? Would be best if Tesla/Authorities work it out in advance. ...
Here is the court´s ruling to temporarily stop the tree cutting and GF4: Alexander Fröhlich on Twitter
Context:
- Tesla does not yet have a final building permit. That is (among other things) dependent on residents being able to voice concerns until March 5 (voicing concern does obviously not autmatically mean everybody can just stop the permit, but those concerns will be judicially checked).
- However, Tesla does have a preliminary permit (which has now been suspended by the court) to start ahead of the final permit, which is dependent on
- High likelihood the final permit will be granted
- A public interest or justified interest of Tesla to start ahead of time
- Tesla pledging that it will make up for all damage caused during preliminary work and to restore everything to the previous state in case they don´t get the final permit
"Es wird von dem Senat zu würdigen sein, ob eine positive Prognose der Erfolgsaussichten des Genehmigungsantrages durch die Genehmigungsbehörde auch schon dann getroffen werden kann, wenn, wie hier, in einem Verfahren mit Öffentlichkeitsbeteiligung die Einwendungsfrist (...) noch läuft."
"It will be appreciated by the Senate whether the approval authority can already make a positive prognosis of the prospects of success of the approval application if, as here, the objection period (...) is still running in a procedure with public participation." (surprisingly good google translation)
IIRC the objection period ends on March 5. Even if they would suspend the permit for tree cutting until then, there is still a chance to get another 2 weeks in March (usually tree cutting must end by end of Feb as vegetation period starts).
