Despite criticism: Weilheim's construction committee is clearly on the planning for the parking garage on Krumpperstrasse.

Despite criticism: Weilheim's construction committee is clearly on the planning for the parking garage on Krumpperstrasse.

Not only are the additional garages for the fire brigade and BRK urgently needed, but also the parking spaces for long-term parkers.

The development plan procedure is meanwhile being changed.

Weilheim

- How explosive - and how important the mayor - this project is, was shown on Tuesday in the town hall.

After reports in our newspaper about controversial views on the massiveness of the multi-storey car park, City Hall boss Markus Loth (BfW) invited the Stadtwerke board member Peter Müller and Weilheim's fire brigade commander Konrad Bischel to explain to the city council's construction committee why there is no alternative to the current planning.

Müller referred to the "extensive remediation of contaminated sites" that the municipal utilities had to shoulder on this property.

It cost 3.4 million euros to remove the contaminated sites of the former gasworks on the site.

Now you have to rely on a use that "pays off" these costs in the long term.

The planned building with 14 vehicle halls for the fire brigade and the Red Cross plus two floors with a total of 100 parking spaces for long-term parkers turned out to be the best among various variants.

According to Müller, the realization costs three million euros.

After completion, a "long-term lease with the city" is planned for the garages of the blue light organizations.

The municipal utilities want to rent out the parking spaces on their own.

There are "so far only preliminary discussions, no preliminary contracts," said the Stadtwerke boss when asked by Alfred Honisch (Greens).

But basically the 100 parking spaces are already occupied - by authorities and institutions such as the Bürgerheim who are looking for parking space for employees.

Bischel emphasized that thought had been going on since 2000 as to how the fire brigade's lack of space could be eliminated.

After three interim solutions, the first impulse for the planned “hybrid building” on Krumpperstrasse followed in 2017.

"It's 2021 now and we still don't know when construction will start," complained the commander: "At some point you just have to come to Potte and give the volunteer firefighters a perspective that they can work properly."

According to Bischel, the military urgently needs more space, whether with increasing tasks.

The current warehouse in Trifthof is “not an alternative”: the support is too labor-intensive, the driving is too time-consuming, the accessibility during floods is unsafe.

It would also be okay for him if the city on Krumpperstrasse built "a cute fire station without a parking garage", added Bischel: "But I don't think that is affordable."

“We fully support this project”: That was the tenor in the construction committee for the planned multi-storey car park, including the fire brigade and BRK garages.

"It's a compromise, but a good compromise," said BfW spokeswoman Brigitte Holeczek: "What bothers me a little is the public perception." Weilheim not only needs the halls for the fire brigade, traffic reports also said "very clearly that a multi-storey car park is necessary in the east “- for parking spaces for authorities and to take the parking pressure off the surrounding streets.

The city's task is "to bring everything under one roof", explained Stefan Zirngibl (CSU): "Create parking spaces, pay attention to economic efficiency and above all create space for the fire brigade and BRK." With reference to related problems in Murnau, he warned: " In Weilheim I don't want to get into the situation where we have to think ad hoc about how things will go on with our fire brigade and the Red Cross. ”The accusation of the Agenda-AK“ Urban Development ”that the client wanted to gamble up building rights (we reported ), Zirngibl rejected as "outrageous": "The municipal utilities build what we as a city consider useful and necessary."

Mayor Loth announced that the ongoing land-use planning for the multi-storey car park would be converted to a “project-related development plan”.

In it, you can specify uses and see "what it actually looks like".

Nonetheless, the committee discussed the objections arising from the involvement of the authorities and the public in relation to the previous proceedings.

Residents fear, among other things, a dazzling effect and noise pollution from the access ramp on the west side - which the city dissipates with reference to the planned design and the available reports.

In addition, they order a noise test for the night.

Relocating the car parking spaces in the ground (as the Agenda-AK demands), also for technical reasons, as it was said.

Incidentally, this project is not comparable to other building projects where underground parking is rightly demanded.
