The concern was great in the Weidach district.
Now there is good news: The Netto market on Äußere Münchner Strasse is to be preserved, at least for the time being.
As reported, there was a demolition of the property in the room.
The owner wanted to build 33 apartments instead of the supermarket, as emerged from an application for a preliminary decision that was dealt with in the building committee in early February.
A new shop space was not included in this plan.
When asked by our newspaper, town hall chief Klaus Heilinglechner explains how the city wants to avert demolition: A development plan is drawn up for the property.
There is currently no such binding regulation for the area.
“We will issue a ban on changes to the property,” announced the mayor.
The change lock takes effect until the development plan is in place - i.e. at least two years
A change lock is a legal instrument that municipalities can use while a zoning plan is being drawn up.
It ensures that no relevant structural changes are permitted on the affected parcels until the legally binding plan comes into force.
Experience shows that the installation takes about two years.
"In this case, it can take longer because the Weilheim water management office has to be involved," said Heilinglechner.
The property on Äußere Münchner Straße runs along the Loisach.
The change lock is not yet dry.
The decision is to be made in the building committee on Wednesday, March 3rd.
“I assume that this will be decided,” says Heilinglechner optimistically.
In his own words, Heilinglechner has already informed the property owner that the city councils will in all probability use this instrument.
The town hall chief had been commissioned by the technical committee to hold a timely discussion with the client.

"It is important to me and the city council to get a local supplier at this point," says town hall chief Klaus Heilinglechner.

In Weidach, the full-range supplier enjoys a high priority: “I know that this market is an important supplier for many people and the surrounding area,” says Heilinglechner.
Especially from Weidach and the old town “a lot of people go shopping there”.
Some of them reported to the town hall after the threat of demolition became known.
In an interview with our newspaper, residents also expressed great concerns: “Elderly people or children would otherwise have no more opportunity to shop,” said Erich Brockard junior, for example.
Martin Lambl feared a "massive loss of value" for the entire district.
Shopping on foot would be impossible in the future without the full-range supplier.
"It is important to me and the city council to have a local supplier at this point," says Heilinglechner.
He would like to stipulate a commercial area in the development plan.
“However, we cannot specify in detail that it has to be a supermarket,” said the mayor.
