What can you build in the province of Walloon Brabant?

The municipalities with the most local schemes (schémas d’orientation locaux) are Wavre (22), Braine-l'Alleud (17), Tubize (16), La Hulpe (14), Ottignies-Louvain-la-Neuve (14) and Waterloo (14). The page of each municipality lists them with a link to their text.

18 of the 27 municipalities have a schéma de développement communal or an older schéma de structure: Beauvechain, Braine-l'Alleud, Braine-le-Château, Chastre, Chaumont-Gistoux, Genappe, Grez-Doiceau, Incourt and 10 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 Walloon Brabant there are protected urban areas in Braine-le-Château, Genappe, Jodoigne, Mont-Saint-Guibert, Nivelles, Perwez and Wavre. The RGBSR applies in 21 villages, in 12 municipalities. The municipal guides are indicative; the Perceelscan tells you, address by address, which ones apply.

277 listed properties (monuments, sites, ensembles and archaeological sites), of which 30 are exceptional heritage; the municipalities with the most are Jodoigne (26), Nivelles (24) and Braine-l'Alleud (23). 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.
