The official site plan is, for example, part of a building permit application. Upon request, the building department prepares this map as an extract from the city base map. The city base map is based on the official real estate map from the state’s surveying and cadastral administration and supplements it with planning-relevant details of the city’s topography. We prepare the official site plan for a building permit application at a scale of 1:500; other standard scales are also available (see the sample examples below).
The Building Department of the City of Mainz prepares site plans exclusively for the urban area of the state capital, Mainz (including its districts).
You also have the option to submit a request providing information on the cadastral district, parcel, parcel number, or street and house number, as well as your personal information and billing address. This can be done via
We typically send the site plan in PDF format via email. Alternatively, we can mail it to you, or you can pick it up in person.
Important Information Regarding Requests for Proof of Ownership
When planning offices (architects) request a site plan with proof of ownership for a building permit application to be submitted, they act as authorized representatives of the parties responsible for the construction.
For other inquiries regarding owner information in connection with a site plan, as stipulated in Section 13(2) of the State Law on Official Surveying (LGVerm), you must demonstrate a legitimate interest in obtaining this data.
For all other inquiries regarding property owners, please contact the responsible Rheinhessen-Nahe Surveying and Cadastral Office.
