A more livable and lovable Pöcking: This is what the town hall wants to achieve with the Integrated Urban Development Concept (ISEK).
The citizens in particular are asked for their opinion and suggestions.
Pöcking
- Pöcking is a beautiful place, no doubt.
But there are corners that can be made even nicer and friendlier.
What a successful improvement looks like can be seen in the area around the Gasthaus Schauer in Possenhofen.
It has been renovated and redesigned in recent years.
The work around the inn is already part of the Integrated Urban Development Concept (ISEK), which has been brought forward. Now the municipality of Pöcking is fully involved in the ISEK. Experts examine the village area, and in autumn the citizens are expected to contribute their opinion. "At ISEK it is important to get a lot of feedback from the citizens," says building authority manager Mirjam Heuer, who is in charge of the process in the town hall.
Corona also plays a role in the Pöckinger ISEK. Because public participation may not be able to take place in meetings as usual, other forms were taken into account in the tender: digital, postal and analog, as Heuer says. That's why it has become a bit more expensive. It is currently planned that there should be open cards. "Citizens can write on it what is important to them," says Heuer. In addition, the opinion on certain areas is asked.
The planning offices Die Stadtentwickler GmbH from Kaufbeuren, the office for landscape architecture Franziska Meyer-Fey from Herrsching and the engineering office for traffic studies Ingevost from Planegg were commissioned with the technical support and processing. You are currently out and about in the municipality and are investigating various topics: traffic, nature and open spaces, vacancies and urban development.
“The places in the community and how life happens on them, the flow of traffic, parking spaces, accessibility and the age structure in the community,” Heuer describes other areas of investigation. In one municipality, for example, it emerged in the area of demography that there was less interest in single-family houses because gardening was viewed as difficult. “All of this can be examined at ISEK,” says the building authority manager. The municipal council should see the results of these investigations in September. According to Heuer, the aim is to discover weak points.
She mentions Raiffeisenplatz, the upper village square, as an example. "Now what was laid down in the development plan 20 years ago is slowly being implemented there." The private construction projects on the square are estimated to be finished by next year. "Then we want to finish the square as quickly as possible." Such projects also ask for the opinion of the citizens. "We want to improve the quality of stay," says Heuer. "It is important to know where people want a bank, for example."
The examinations for the ISEK cost the community just under 100,000 euros. It is the ticket for urban development funding, which could then support measures in Pöcking - among other things, the ISEK itself is funded. In the case of the square in front of the Schauer Inn, there was already money. In total, the redesign of Karl-Theodor-Strasse there cost 1.15 million euros. Last year, around 330,000 euros came from urban development funds to Pöcking, while public funding for the square amounts to a total of 465,000 euros.
