As a tenant in Westland experiencing nuisance and wishing to terminate your rental agreement? Then collect compelling evidence to successfully apply Article 7:270 DCC. Without solid documentation, the subdistrict court in The Hague will often reject your request. Start with a logbook specific to your situation in neighbourhoods such as Naaldwijk, Monster or Kwintsheul: note dates, times, duration and nature of the nuisance, such as greenhouse noise or parties until 02:00 at night. Make discreet audio recordings, videos or photos of, for example, illegal constructions in glasshouse horticulture areas, but comply with GDPR privacy rules. Collect witness statements from neighbours in densely populated streets around the Veilingroute or Poeldijk. Send registered letters to your landlord with the complaint and attachments, and keep copies. Demand a written response within 14 days. Involve the Municipality of Westland for a habitability check via the neighbourhood teams in Wateringen or 's-Gravenzande, or request police interventions for noise nuisance from greenhouses or agricultural businesses. In case of health complaints such as sleep problems due to nighttime traffic on the N213, add medical certificates. Document inspection reports of mould due to moisture in older Westland homes. This file is crucial: the judge assesses whether the landlord failed in its duty of care. A local lawyer from Westland can compile your evidence. Insufficient documentation leads to rejection; be systematic and patient. Contact Huurteam Westland for free advice. (248 words)
