Clear course: Citizens' forum calls for real participation in Leibnitz

In the city of Leibnitz, there are currently controversial discussions about the role of the mayor and the administration. Manuela Kittler from the BFL Bürgerforum Leibnitz brings himself into the debate with clear words. She demands that the voice of the citizens not only heard, but is taken seriously. In her opinion, it is not necessary to distribute questionnaires in order to understand the needs of the citizens. Rather, one should use the existing knowledge and experience from the past 15 years.

Kittler criticizes the current administration, which in her opinion uses important resources inefficient. For example, 2,700 euros had to be reversed for the repair of the municipal bus, since the money originally had to support a different facility. Instead, large sums are invested in symbolic projects, such as the construction of a new park near the "old cinema", which costs almost 173,000 euros.

criticism of social achievements

particularly detached from the financial expenditure, Kittler criticizes the social responsibility of the community. According to her statement, the “food delivery on wheels”, which benefits older fellow citizens, is not fully secured. The facility does not have sufficient capacities, which leads to a waiting list for those interested. This situation illustrates a fundamental problem in community administration for Kittler.

Another topic that Kittler appeals to concern the establishment of a garbage collection point at an event place. She sees this as an unemployed decision that presents the citizens of accomplished facts without incorporating their opinion. In view of these developments, the politician appeals to the citizens to actively stand up for change and not only passively fill out questionnaires.

"Citizens have to decide: Do you want to fill out the usual questionnaire or are you ready to take actively participating in the changes in Leibnitz?" so Kittler. This clear announcement shows that it is committed to a transparent and citizen -related policy that focuses on the actual needs of the population. According to her assessment, the right time is now to think about the future of Leibnitz and formulate real changes. Kittler positions himself as a voice for civic engagement and the active participation of your community.

The situation in Leibnitz is now the focus of an intensive debate, and it remains to be seen how the citizens will react to these claims, as www.meinbezirk.at reports .
