Intention to establish a right of superficies

The Municipality of Wassenaar intends to establish a leasehold right on its land for the purpose of operating a flower kiosk. This concerns the parcel of land, known in the land registry as Municipality of Wassenaar, B numbers 5313 and 9382 (partially), locally known as Van Zuylen van Neijeveltstraat and Van Oldenbarneveltweg in Wassenaar, measuring approximately 38 m².

Operator is the only serious candidate

In the municipality’s view, the operator is the only serious candidate eligible for the aforementioned rent-based right of superficies for the purpose of operating a flower kiosk at the aforementioned location. The operator is a current tenant. In addition, the operator has made investments, which means that the current tenant’s interests carry greater weight.

In view of the above, the municipality is of the opinion that, based on objective, reasonable, and verifiable criteria, only one serious candidate is eligible for the aforementioned rent-dependent right of superficies. It should be noted that the municipality has a considerable degree of discretion in this matter.

Expiration date 

If you do not agree with this proposal, you must notify us no later than May 7, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. (within 20 calendar days of publication) by sending a written statement to juridischezaken@wassenaar.nl, citing the reference “Leasehold Right to the Bloemenkiosk Building.” In the absence of a timely and substantiated notice, the right to challenge the foregoing in court and/or to base any claim for damages or any other claim whatsoever on it shall lapse; in any event, you shall have forfeited your rights thereto. After all, the municipality and the operator would be unreasonably disadvantaged if objections to the proposed action or the conclusion of the agreement(s) were raised only after this (clearly communicated) deadline. 

With this publication, the municipality is implementing the Supreme Court’s ruling dated November 26, 2021 (ECLI:NL:HR:2021:1778).
