lijnrichting

English translation: building line

Law/Patents - Real Estate / Notary Public deed
Dutch term or phrase: lijnrichting
"Indien de goederen onderworpen zijn aan gehele of gedeeltelijke onteigening, ***lijnrichting***, betreffende voorbouw of achterbouw, urbanisatievereisten of andere overheidsbesluiten of reglementen van stedenbouwkundige aard, ..."

I do not see what "line direction" has to do with the context. That's the only translation I have been able to find, and it's too literal IMO.
Who can tell me what this term means and what it would be translated as in a deed by a notary public.
References are welcome.

TIA,
Alexander

Thanks Alexander!

Regarding Richard, I think he posted an answer, but since he thought you were rude (not sure why exactly), he then hid his answer. A moderator has now also locked the Discussion thread, I think. Not sure why. Richard's comment about you being rude is also gone from the Discussion thread. That's about all I know.

" What Are Ransom Strips?

In its purest form, a ransom strip is a small strip of land (and I do mean small – as small as 150mm is sufficient to show up in a plan, in fact) whose ownership is retained by the previous owner of the land or adjoining land.

Typically, the strip of land will be situated between the public highway and main access to the property being purchased. Thusly, the new owner of the land is denied access to his/her new property until money is received for the ransom strip.

In other cases, a ransom strip may also include the permission to widen a public road that leads to a property.

Ransom strips can sometimes be completely apparent on the ground, though in a lot of cases their existence might only be established by careful measurement or through the detailed study of plans. Sometimes ransom strips occur by accident, though oftentimes they are created intentionally by savvy land owners who sell off land."

agree  Marijke Singer: If lijnrichting is not related to the concept of onteigening, then I would use alignment.
