The political hurdles should have been overcome - now the investor, who is planning two buildings with 23 apartments and 14 boarding house units on Murnauer Lindenthalstrasse, is waiting for the building permit.
The total budget for the project is 15 million euros.
Murnau
- Four years, says Florian Schönberger, have passed since the beginning of the project; According to him, the necessary tectures ran for over 19 months alone. Now nothing should stand in the way of the building permit for the new residential and boarding house complex at Murnauer Lindenthalstrasse 10 on the site of a former hypermarket. This includes two buildings and an underground car park with a fast charging station. Schönberger, managing partner at Vispiron, which has implemented photovoltaic open-space systems in Eschenlohe and Schöffau, “did not expect” that the implementation of the project, which is to offer an individual living, energy and mobility concept, would take such a long time could pull. After the project was scaled down,the question of parking space had recently caused political discussions.
Project in Lindenthal: Construction committee majority agrees to compromise
This hurdle has also been overcome: A 6: 4 majority in the building committee - against which the CSU representatives Rudolf Utzschneider, Franz Neuner and Lorenz Brey as well as Welf Probst (Free Voters) - now agreed to a compromise. The investor, who wants to build 14 boarding house units (according to the general interpretation, a kind of accommodation facility for longer stays, usually used by companies) as well as 23 furnished and unfurnished apartments of various sizes, will create 45 parking spaces. 37 are mathematically assigned to the residential units, 8 are intended for car sharing. Like e-bikes, e-scooters and other vehicles that are available for rent if required, this is part of a mobility concept. Vispiron must undertake to implement this on a permanent basis so that it can get away with fewer parking spaces,than are provided for in the local planning statute.
Bargaining for parking spaces: the local council feels "like being in a bazaar"
At the meeting, a debate sparked again on this issue between supporters, who argued in favor of allowing new approaches with the mobility concept in order to make changes possible, and opponents, who insisted that all applicants be treated equally and were against an exception . “We must uphold the principle of equality in front of the citizens. Why don't you make three more parking spaces that we demand? ”Asked Probst. “I feel like I am in a bazaar.” He considers that “harmful and arbitrary”. On the side of the supporters who were recruited from the camps of Bündnis 90 / Die Grünen, ÖDP / Citizens 'Forum and Mehr Bewegen, Mayor Rolf Beuting (ÖDP / Citizens' Forum) stood. He found that you have to "offer people something if you want to encourage them to break new ground".Beuting also saw the project as a “good start” to test whether / how a mobility concept works in larger residential complexes.
Already "a lot of inquiries" for future rental apartments
With this, Schönberger would like to create an “ecological showcase project” with buildings made of solid wood from prefabricated elements.
As much energy is to be produced on site as the residents need for heating, electricity and mobility.
Vispiron wants to keep the property and rent out apartments.
"We have already received a lot of inquiries," says Schönberger.
He announces a “good and acceptable cost structure”;
According to him, the rental prices will be higher than for other properties, “but you save on ancillary and mobility costs.
With us you don't notice anything about a gas price explosion ”.
And you can do without a second car, says Schönberger with a view to the e-car sharing offered.
The former consumer market could be demolished in winter
As soon as the district office has the building permit, the investor wants to put the work out to tender.
The former Tengelmann building should, that would be Schönberger's wish, be demolished in winter.
In the best case scenario, the new building could start in the spring, if it is certain that the required material - the most recently prepared bottlenecks on construction sites - is available.
“We only start,” says Schönberger, “when all the chains are closed.” He had four years of patience, “I can wait six months longer”.
