What to know in Hoeilaart
Hoeilaart is in Flanders, in Flemish Brabant. Works exempt from a permit follow the exemption decree (vrijstellingsbesluit); the simple notification procedure (melding) was abolished on 1 March 2026. Planning permission is applied for on the Omgevingsloket.
Local rules and grants
- In Hoeilaart, the soil is a loam that drains slowly: the municipality itself gave up on an infiltration swale in its park. Permeable paving there needs an infiltration test first.
- Hoeilaart’s rainwater plan records a drop in the water table of about 1.3 m in 15 years, and flooding in the valleys from water running off the slopes.
- Until 2025, Hoeilaart subsidised replacing a driveway or terrace with permeable paving (€5/m², 10 to 60 m²); check with the municipality whether the grant continues in 2026.
The rules in Flanders
| Terrace | No permit needed up to 80 m² in total at the back and side, 1 m from the boundary and within 30 m of the house. |
|---|---|
| In front of the house | Only the driveway that is strictly necessary is exempt. A parking space always needs a permit. |
| Rainwater | In Flemish Brabant, rainwater from a new surface that needs a permit must stay on the plot: infiltration or a rainwater tank. |
| Fence | Open: 2 m maximum. Solid: 1 m maximum in front of the house, 2 m at the sides and back. |
| Permit timescale | 60 days under the simplified procedure, three to six months in practice. |
