The citizens' dialogue on the Am Patchway-Anger development area in Gautingen met with great interest.

Gauting

- The large town hall was fully booked during the public dialogue on the new Gautingen development area Am Patchway-Anger.

Therefore, the lectures on the socio-ecological model settlement by architecture professor Hans-Peter Hebensperger-Hüther and urban planner Manuela Skorka were transferred to the foyer.

Mayor Dr.

Brigitte Kössinger promoted the project, she spoke of "the great opportunity" for affordable living space.

Wall heights of up to 10.50 meters, a two-storey garage over 122 meters in length in the direction of residential development: this was the old plan for the 3000 square meter area with the disused AOA factory site, recalled Hebensperger-Hüther. The semi-detached houses for eight residents that were envisaged at the time would now cost two million euros each. The municipal council has therefore decided on his design. Fortunately, the four landowners - the community, the Katholisches Siedlungswerk, Verband Wohnen and Diehlgruppe Nürnberg, who owns the front AOA property - are pulling "in concert". In a three and a half year process, the residents affected were involved and their suggestions were implemented. The result is the design with subsidized apartment building, large lawn, green areas, rainwater retention basin, supermarket, café,privately financed apartments, co-working spaces and three-group daycare.

Offers for neighbors too: supermarket, daycare center, car sharing, café

Two-story flat single-family houses are to be built on the community property.

Objections from neighbors, such as reduced floors in the east and south, were taken into account by Hebensperger-Hüther.

The settlement will be developed with underground garages without new roads and without high sealing.

120 new trees, green roofs or roofs equipped with photovoltaics, the meadow for parties, playgrounds, open spaces and the car-free concept with footpaths and bike paths: these are the urban development goals.

The neighborhood also benefits from the offers (supermarket, day care center, car sharing, café), added planner Skorka.

Compared to the old plan, the volume of traffic on Ammerseestrasse will increase from 1,800 vehicles per day to 2080 - according to the forecast by traffic planner Helmuth Ammerl. A reduced parking space key of 0.8 is planned in the "low-price" apartments and one parking space per person in the privately financed apartments. With 190 units plus communal areas, Skorka sees a “future-oriented quarter”, the train station and center are within walking distance. Hebensperger-Hüther reckons with 530 to 550 residents. Other rumored numbers "are not correct," he said.

The plans were well received, but some residents remain skeptical: They fear the additional traffic on Ammerseestrasse.

“That is why we have the mobility concept with car and bike sharing,” emphasized Mayor Kössinger.

The houses are way too high, criticized Dr.

Ulla Ziegler, chairwoman of the Citizens' Forum.

“We already have five floors on Danziger Strasse,” contradicted Kössinger.

If you want to build ecologically with little sealing and affordable, “you have to go up high”.
