ᐅ What types of boundaries or fences are permitted? Is a bamboo hedge allowed?

Hi everyone!
Since we don’t want a fence and I have always wanted a bamboo hedge, I’m now in a bit of a tricky situation with my property.
The local authority requires us to implement one of the following three ecological measures:
A) Rainwater cistern
B) Solar system
C) Garden planting with native trees and shrubs
The development plan also states that we must plant two native fruit or deciduous trees.
Regarding boundaries, there is an additional rule: “Instead of fences, the planting of hedges up to a maximum height of 2.0 meters (6.6 feet) is allowed (lower reference point: road surface level of the public street traffic area/traffic area with special purpose designation at the street boundary line; upper reference point: top of the hedge), using native, site-appropriate deciduous woody plants.”
For the required measures, I would obviously choose option C), but there are no specified quantities, so for me, planting the two trees would already fulfill the requirement...
Is there any way to plant a bamboo hedge, for example on my property side, not directly at the boundary line?
Thanks in advance!

No L-shaped blocks are allowed every 10 meters; instead, there must be a ramp for hedgehogs I’m impressed.
Well, I like hedgehogs. Do you still?
I don’t see the problem: so far, I have always tried to design a corner of the garden in a way that makes animals feel comfortable. I always hope for hedgehogs, so there are leaves in the undergrowth, ground cover plants, leftover building materials like stone pipes, and piles of stones where animals can hibernate.
My husband has a birdbath as well as birdhouses and enjoys seeing the birds use them. Birds also build nests in our garden.
In a way, I consider our garden setup a responsibility towards nature, and it’s a pity that not everyone shares this awareness.

Somehow, I see our garden area as a duty to nature...Hey, let’s start a club. Besides the composting area for the hedgehog and various shelters, we’ve also set up a “wild growth corner.” We just let it grow naturally there. It isn’t mowed or trimmed. It’s a very popular spot for all kinds of insects—especially dragonflies.

So, I like hedgehogs, do you still (also)?I think hedgehogs are cute, and it doesn’t affect me. Our neighbors can’t afford L-shaped concrete blocks, so we’ll simply build higher than planned there and create a second level within the plot. Unfortunately, the hedgehog will have to roam around a bit in that area [emoji16] There is hardly any height difference with the neighbors below us, as their house is quite tall and ours is rather low.
Although I would have preferred the front boundary fence, since many people walk around here with unleashed dogs. But it should work fine without dog waste or damage anyway [emoji6]
