Permit description
The City of Turku primarily directs the building in rural areas with exceptional planning permits and placement decisions for planning need areas. Depending on the project, the City might require both decisions.
You need an exceptional planning permit, for instance, when:
- you want to build a building by the sea shore or near a body of water
- you want to build more than one building on a site in a rural area
- the building site in the rural area is less than 1,000 square metres
Instructions for use
- Apply for an exceptional planning permit or a placement decision for a planning need area in the City's e-service.
You can ask for more information about the exceptional planning permit or the placement decision for a planning need area from the Urban Environment's environmental lawyers or the Urban Environment's customer service.
What does the service cost?
See the prices in the Building Supervision's fee table. If an exceptional planning permit has been required for the placement decision for a planning need area, the City only invoices 50% of the fee.
If you are applying for a permit with a paper form, an additional fee of 200€ will be added for the converting of the documents to an electronic format.
