Finsing - Local council Bernhard Faschinger (Greens) has set himself the goal of ecological upgrading and improvement of the communal areas in Finsing.
Some time ago he suggested looking into the subject.
At the meeting of the Committee for Transport, Environment and Energy, an up-to-date inventory was presented to the competent authority.
It gives tips, food for thought and suggestions for improvement for around 60 properties.
"In detail, it is about revising the outdated and no longer up-to-date eco-account areas, for example, and adapting them to the current needs, priorities and problems in the local flora and fauna," explains Faschinger when asked by the local newspaper.
These were already at least 20 years old and at that time were “treated relatively flat-rate”, as the committee member puts it.
For example, groups of shrubs have often been planted, "which at first wasn't or is not bad at all," as he emphasizes.
When adapting the areas, however, he calls for them to be tailored to the requirements of currently threatened species such as lapwing, skylark or partridge.
“After all, the eco-account area should also have its purpose and not just be there so that it is there,” he explains.

Together with the farmers, Faschinger would also like to develop compatible solutions with regard to biodiversity.
He mentions “small island solutions in fields, corners or areas that are difficult to work on” as examples.
These could actively counteract the death of insects through flowering areas or the creation of biotopes, and offer refuge and breeding areas for threatened species.
Faschinger primarily envisions the areas leased by the community.
Coexistence is particularly important.
"The farmer should be convinced that he is doing the right thing and should receive compensation for this," says Faschinger.
One should also not forget the inner-city public areas, which are, for example, next to playgrounds.
For this purpose, he suggests appropriate sowing and, for example, fruit trees financed through donations.
He can also imagine bringing nature closer to children and parents using display boards.
Overall, according to Faschinger, it is a matter of small, cost-subordinate measures “that do not hurt anyone”.
With some considerations, he even sees a saving in work and thus money for the building yard.
"All measures are accompanied by the Lower Nature Conservation Authority, so that the supra-regional sense is given," explains Faschinger.
The proposals of the Lower Nature Conservation Authority were discussed in the committee meeting.
In view of the large number of spaces, Faschinger thinks it makes sense to make a preselection - “the spaces where we can get the best out of with little money,” he explained.
Then the suggestions should be discussed in the local council.
Above all, flowering meadows and display boards on the community's public spaces met with skepticism from several committee members.
The reason is parents who would complain if the child were stung by a bee, for example.
