Law on planning () popularly known as Planloven, is a 1992 Danish law which establishes the basic rules that public authorities shall follow when planning, including:
the protection of the country's nature and environment through prevention of pollution to create and maintain valuable buildings to involve the public in planning
Plan types Planloven contains four different plan types:
National directives Regional plans Municipality plans Local plans
The various plans are ranked so that a plan of a given type may not conflict with plans on a higher level. It is only the local plan that is binding for the individual landowners.
