City of St. Wendel in a dispute: New residential area at the mission house at risk!

St. Wendel, Deutschland - A storm of the controversy moves over St. Wendel! On Thursday, December 5, 2024, the city council gathers in the cultural center to fade to debate the explosive development plan "01.54 Missionshaus St. Wendel and eastern Missionshausstraße". The SPD parliamentary group has demanded that the votes of citizens and objections flow into this crucial process. But the plans for a new residential area near the mission house are under a bad star!

The Saarland's highest building authority reacted to the plans with a sharp veto and explains that the proven living space exceeds the actual needs of the population. "For the time being, not realizable" - that is the devastating judgment of the building authority, which places the future of this controversial project into great uncertainty. The planned new building on the Steyler Hang, part of the redesign of the mission house, could be left behind for the time being.

public excitement and allegations

The situation continues! The environmental association ProH2o, led by Dr. Armin König, raises serious allegations against the city administration. König, the former mayor of Illingen, accuses the city of having held back important information because the critical statement of the building authority was initially not published. He calls for urgently needed transparency in the communication of the city.

Today's city council meeting is seen as a key event to discuss both the criticisms and possible adjustments to the development plan. Citizens should be more involved in decision -making, while the city administration is under pressure to improve their information policy. The tension in St. Wendel is tangible - all eyes are focused on the developments!
