The need for renovation is great - the municipality is spending a lot of money: Expenditure of 2.5 million euros is planned for the Wolfratshausen volunteer fire brigade.

The town hall chief explains where the money is going.

Wolfratshausen - Commandant Andreas Spohn made the shortcomings clear on a tour: As reported, there is a great need for renovation in the tool shed of the Wolfratshausen volunteer fire brigade.

In the current budget year, the city council has earmarked 100,000 euros for the measure.

But that's just the beginning: "This money is set for a specialist planner who prepares the renovations," explains town hall chief Klaus Heilinglechner.

The city is reckoning with 900,000 euros for the renovation of the fire station - as of now

A suitable expert will be searched for soon.

At the moment, the municipality is expecting renovation costs of 900,000 euros in the tool shed - this amount is included in the budget for 2022 as a precautionary measure.

Depending on how the specialist planner assesses the need for renovation in the building on Hatzplatz, the amount could still change.

"We know how important this measure is," said the mayor.

Last but not least, the renovation should ensure the operational readiness and occupational safety of the fire brigade.

A total of 2.5 million euros will flow into the weir over the next 24 months

For the Floriansjünger, the municipality is courageously digging into the city bag: Overall, the Loisachstadt wants to invest around 2.5 million euros in the larger of the two local fire departments - including the building renovation.

"This year alone, we plan to spend around 1.2 million euros," calculates Heilinglechner.

This includes, among other things, the purchase of an emergency fire fighting group vehicle - HLF for short - in the amount of 550,000 euros.

The turntable ladder is urgently needed, the purchase is preferred.

The purchase of a new turntable ladder in the coming year has already been decided.

The old one had recently refused to work twice, "therefore the purchase is being brought forward" - originally a new model was not supposed to be purchased for three years.

There are also other expenses, for example for new vehicles or modernizations.

"These investments are absolutely justified," emphasizes the town hall chief.

Commandant Andreas Spohn said during the tour: "It is good that the willingness is there to tackle the issues."
