They are only a few square meters in size, made of wood and often mounted on a trailer - tiny houses, small, fully usable wooden houses.
Now Erding is also to get a tiny house settlement.
Erding
gets a
tiny house
settlement
.
The
urban development committee decided unanimously
on
Tuesday evening (January 19)
.
It is an
idyllic place
at the southern end of the
ducal town
:
There is a secluded allotment garden on
Waldstrasse in Bergham
, which is adjacent to the former city nursery.
This has not been used for over ten years.
That could soon be over.
The city councils unanimously decided to change the development plan number 74 from 1982 so that a wooden housing estate can be built here.
Tiny house settlement in Erding: 7,000 square meters of wasteland
The
association Tiny Houses Bayern
, Erding city group, is
behind the project
.
He turned to the city, and Bernadette Karlstätter from urban development in the town hall considers the almost 7,000 square meter fallow land to be suitable.
She spoke of a "new type of model project".
Mayor Max Gotz (CSU) also called the project a “new form of living that we want to establish here”.
The city will lease the site to the association, who will then conclude usage contracts with the tiny house owners.
Tiny house settlement in Erding: 17 to 19 houses should find space here
Thomas Schmidbauer (Erding Jetzt) wanted to know what was specifically planned, houses or just parcels.
Gotz replied: “That will result from the development plan procedure.” He could imagine 17 to 19 houses.
The old building of the city gardeners could be used jointly.
Schmidbauer warned against using it as holiday homes, for example via the AirBNB platform.
None of the city councilors want that.
CSU parliamentary group leader Burkhard Köppen was pleased "that we are giving a new form of living space to develop", but asked how the neighbors would view it.
Gotz said that he had not yet heard of any resistance.
Tiny house settlement in Erding: Much is still unclear
Helga Stieglmeier (Greens) asked what the energy supply should look like: “Does everyone do it for themselves, or is it done centrally?” Gotz spoke out in favor of specifying this in the development plan.
"A joint solution would certainly be better, and then we should also rely on the most climate-friendly energy sources possible."
Much is still unclear, such as how specifically the type of wooden houses is stipulated and whether they will be permanent residences or the tiny houses will only be used temporarily by their owners.
Months ago, Margot Hoigt from the Asylum Action Group suggested building tiny houses as quarters for refugees.
There are already tiny house projects all over Upper Bavaria.
The road to get there is tough in some places.
Little miracles happen in some places.
