Resistance to asylum plans: Marienstein in the crisis!

Resistance to asylum plans: Marienstein in the crisis!

In the district of Miesbach it is bubbling! The plans of the district office to build a new asylum accommodation in the isolated Haslberger-Halle in Marienstein encounter violent resistance from the municipality of Waakirchen. "The community is horrified!" Said the clear announcement in a press release. The hall is not only unsuitable, but also the location itself complicates the integration of the refugees. The oversized accommodation is criticized as a disproportionate burden for Waakirchen. Up to 40 people already live in a converted administration building in Marienstein.

District Administrator Olaf von Löwis had been optimistic after a mayor's service meeting and was based on the Schaftlach model, which is intended to serve as a sustainable solution for the accommodation of refugees. But the municipality is transferring: "We will not have this decision!", She announced that we would take appropriate measures. A building application for the hall has already been submitted, but the municipality is obviously planning to reject it. If the district office goes over it, a lawsuit could result!

urgent need for accommodations

The situation is tense! The district urgently needs new accommodations because another bus with 50 refugees has been announced. The existing halls in Miesbach are fully busy with almost 350 people. "This is a terrible shaft!" Löwis describes the chaotic location. The overtime in the district office adds up to 1000, while recognized asylum seekers who do not find apartments have to remain in the accommodations. The pressure on the administration is growing!

A possible relief could bring the container system in Warngau, which will be completed at the end of the year. But this solution is also only temporary. The Schaftlacher model, which offers municipalities the opportunity to provide land free of charge, could help in the long term. "This could be an export hit for other communities!" Houses District Administrator of Löwis. But the government's permits are still pending, and time is pushing!
