Report outlines possible development directions for Zuid-Kennemerland
The Province of North Holland, together with partners, has produced a report outlining possible development directions for Zuid-Kennemerland.
The report is factual in nature and based on extensive research and a broad participation process involving stakeholders. It provides insights and substantiation but does not contain any guiding or definitive administrative decisions.
The report describes various development directions for a future-proof inner dune edge. These directions show what is conceivable based on the available research and input gathered. The report thus serves as a basis for administrative consideration, not for decision-making. No choices have yet been made about the future of the area, and no decisions have been taken regarding specific plots of land.
A summary of the report’s findings and possible development directions for each area is available at www.onzebinnenduinrand.nl. This page also explains how input from residents and other interested parties has been incorporated into the report.
Development directions, no choices yet
The development directions are intended to assist administrators in making choices about the future of the inner dune edge. The report illustrates what is possible based on the available research and input from the participation process. The next steps, including the process toward administrative decision-making, will be determined in the coming period. Any choices regarding the further development of the area and the resources required will only be made in a subsequent phase.
Existing challenge: Netherlands Nature Network
An existing provincial challenge within the area is the implementation of the Netherlands Nature Network (NNN). The Province of North Holland has allocated €42 million for this purpose. This budget is part of the broader provincial policy to complete the NNN in North Holland.
The possible development directions in the report align in various ways with this challenge. No definitive decisions have yet been made regarding the precise implementation and its relationship with other developments in the area. The province has informed landowners of NNN plots about the next steps and the possibilities for taking action toward implementation. Landowners wishing to discuss this further can contact the province.
