Lindlar under pressure: Property tax B increases to record -breaking 1245%!

in Lindlar, a municipality in the Oberberg district, hails drastic tax increases! The Council decision on Tuesday triggered a shock: the rate of property tax B shoots 1,245 percent. This is an increase of almost 90 percent within just one year after it was only raised to 903 percent in April. The decision was enforced with the votes of the CDU and the Greens, while Mayor Dr. Georg Ludwig, on the other hand, voted, since he described the increase as too high and as an intolerable location disadvantage for the municipality, such as Oberberg-aktuell.de

shock for citizens and companies

This massive tax increase will not only hit homeowners and tenants hard, but also force the local companies to pay more taxes. In a context in which many municipalities are fighting with financial uncertainties, Lindlar becomes increasingly unattractive as a living and commercial location. Mayor Ludwig warned that in the current economically tense times it was not the right solution to increase the property tax so much, and the FDP also criticized the decision as hostile to the citizens, as radioberg.de reported.

The SPD vehemently contradicted and described the increase as "without need". The Grünen parliamentary group leader, Patrick Heuwes, noticed that the municipality of Lindlar could end up under the negative leaders of the property taxpayers in the NRW comparison. The CDU's policy is sharply criticized; In just a few months, the local representatives have created an unprecedented tax burden that not only attacks the community's equity, but also significantly increased the life of the citizens. The debate about the tax increases will continue to employ Lindlar in the coming months.
