Further explanation

The municipality has determined that, based on objective, reasonable, and verifiable criteria, there is one serious candidate eligible to acquire the relevant portions of the real property. This exchange is being carried out pursuant to the Road Management Redistribution Act, with the aim of achieving a logical and efficient redistribution of the management and maintenance of the relevant infrastructure works (roads) among the road authorities involved. 

In this case, only the relevant government agencies, in their capacity as road authorities, have an interest in acquiring the relevant portion of the Real Property. In this context, through this exchange, the municipality will acquire a number of infrastructure parcels that are important to it as a road authority. With regard to the parcels to be exchanged, there is therefore one serious candidate.

Disagree with this decision?

If you believe that you are also eligible to acquire the Real Property based on the criteria set forth above, you must, within 20 calendar days (i.e., no later than June 10, 2026) after this publication, you must initiate summary proceedings before the judge in preliminary relief matters at the District Court of Northern Netherlands, Leeuwarden location. This is a strict deadline. 

Failure to file a motion for preliminary relief will result in the forfeiture of the right to challenge any of the foregoing in court and/or to base any claim for damages or any other claim whatsoever thereon; in any event, you will have forfeited your rights in this regard. After all, the municipality and the prospective party would be unreasonably disadvantaged if the intention to exchange were challenged only after this clearly stated deadline has passed. 

Questions?

If you have any questions about the proposed land swap, please contact the Land Affairs Department at grondzaken@t-diel.nl or by mail at Raadhuisweg 7, 9251 GH Burgum, referring to the “Proposed Land Swap for the Central Axis.”

In conclusion

With this publication, the municipality is implementing the Supreme Court’s ruling of November 26, 2021 (ECLI:NL:HR:2021:1778).
