Miesbach celebrates victory in the water dispute with Munich – agreement in sight!

A significant victory for the city of Miesbach in the decades-long water rights dispute with Munich! Mayor Gerhard Braunmiller proudly announces that the Munich municipal utilities, which get 80 percent of their drinking water from the Mangfalltal, are now under pressure. The city of Munich is planning to expand the Thalham-Reisach-Gotzing water protection area, but is citing existing rights that, according to the report, simply do not exist!

The Environment Committee speaks out clearly

After intensive discussions and the third petition from those affected, the Environment Committee has finally sent a signal. He demands that the process for redesignating the water protection area only be continued once the validity of the alleged old rights has been objectively examined. This could be the key to an amicable end to the dispute, says Braunmiller. A ray of hope for Miesbach, which vehemently defends itself against the unlawful claims!

The decision could have far-reaching consequences for the region's water supply. Miesbach shows that one can defend oneself against invasive claims and that the rights of the affected communities cannot be ignored. A clear step towards justice and fairness in the use of water resources!
