Municipalities in the Imst district are fighting for school conversions: financial concerns grow

The financial situation in many communities in the Imst district is tense and throws shadows on upcoming construction projects. At the beginning of August, an urgent warning was published by the IMST district administration to all communities in order to admonish them for caution in the budgeting in the coming year. This means that municipalities such as Roppen and Mötz have their projects on the brink.

in Roppen should begin with the great renovation and addition of the elementary school next year. However, due to the uncertain financial situation and the fact that a necessary million loan was not approved by the district administration, Mayor Ingo Mayr sees no other way than to postpone the project by another year.

It looks very different in Tarrenz, where Mayor Stefan Rueland wants to hold on to the renovation of the elementary school for around ten million euros. "We have talks with the country in October," said Rueland optimistically. However, if it turns out that the financing is not portable, a shift could also be imminent here. On Friday there will be the first conversation with the district administration about the amount of the funding, and the municipality's creditworthiness must also be checked again.

The Mötz community, on the other hand, is under great pressure. Village chief Michael KluibenSkädl is waiting for a decision -making feedback from Governor Anton Mattle to find out whether the new construction of the club house for 3.9 million euros can be started this year. Previous offers for the loan are already available, but the final approval is still missing.

In Oetz, on the other hand, the situation looks a little better. A loan application of 3.6 million euros for the construction of a new operations center in cooperation with the district administration has already been discussed here. Mayor Hansjörg Falkner plans to start the construction work this year, provided the supervisory authority gives her okay.

in Haiming, Mayor Michaela Ofner looks at three construction projects for educational institutions that have been on the agenda for years. But as she notes, these projects are unexpectedly implementable for the next year, which is why your community now has to think about how it is best to do with this situation.

The challenges for the municipalities in the Imst district illustrate the need for careful financial planning. It remains to be seen how the discussions with the responsible authorities will assume and whether the municipalities will eventually be able to enforce their important construction projects. Information about the state's municipal financial report can be found online. Further messages from the district are also available.
