What can you build in the province of Liège?

The municipalities with the most local schemes (schémas d’orientation locaux) are Liège (63), Seraing (49), Grâce-Hollogne (22), Verviers (18) and Huy (17). The page of each municipality lists them with a link to their text.

22 of the 75 municipalities have a schéma de développement communal or an older schéma de structure: Amay, Aubel, Awans, Braives, Chaudfontaine, Comblain-au-Pont, Engis, Esneux and 14 more. It says where the municipality wants to go, for its whole territory; it is indicative.

The regional planning guide (guide régional d’urbanisme) is binding where it applies: in a protected urban area and in a rural village under the rules for building in the countryside (RGBSR). In the province of Liège there are protected urban areas in Herve, Huy, Liège, Limbourg, Malmedy, Pepinster, Spa, Stavelot and Theux. The RGBSR applies in 38 villages, in 16 municipalities. The municipal guides are indicative; the Perceelscan tells you, address by address, which ones apply.

1,413 listed properties (monuments, sites, ensembles and archaeological sites), of which 88 are exceptional heritage; the municipalities with the most are Liège (450), Verviers (93) and Huy (72). The Perceelscan tells you, address by address, whether the plot is listed, lies in a protection zone or is in the inventory.

In Wallonia no regional rule says how many m² of floor area a plot may take: it follows from a local scheme, a guide or the surroundings, and the permitting authority decides on a concrete design. The Perceelscan tells you, address by address, which schemes and guides apply and what could stand in the way of a project.
