After a long discussion, the Forstern municipal council narrowly said yes to another gravel pit on the district border.

Forstern

– The topic of gravel mining has always been an emotional subject for discussion in the Forstern municipal council.

Now an application for dismantling with backfilling and recultivation near the Mülhausener Weg was on the agenda.

Specifically, it is an area directly on the district border and directly adjacent to an already existing gravel pit on Hohenlindener Flur of the same operator.

By the way: everything from the region is now also available in our regular Erding newsletter.

Mayor Rainer Streu (AWG) explained that two mining areas were noted in the municipality's gravel mining concept.

The property applied for is not in it, and it is also not designated as a priority or reserved area in the state development program (LEP).

However, the project is privileged.

It is to be dismantled on 2100 square meters, and the area then used for agriculture again.

Compensation will take place in the form of a five-meter plant strip in the Hohenlinden municipal area.

The administration suggested that the agreement should be granted – with the proviso that access should not be via Mühlhausener Weg.

The community of Hohenlinden has already approved the use of their road for the removal.

In addition, the duration of the silting must not exceed five years, and the recultivation should be completed no later than three years after the silting.

"If that's privileged, it can be that it goes up to the outskirts once they've started," feared Anton Oskar (CSU): "I'm not for it.

We have our gravel quarrying concept, and you should stick to it and not open more gravel pits arbitrarily.”

But it's not quite that simple, explained Streu.

You need a good reason to refuse the agreement - if another use is planned, such as a landscape protection area, or that you want to develop the place further.

"But just because an area isn't included in our concept doesn't mean that gravel can't be quarried there with privilege," said the mayor, adding: "We had determined where we would like quarrying to take place, but we didn't say where we explicitly didn't want that to happen.” The concept is therefore merely a declaration of intent.

Erwin Nominacher (SPD) agreed: "It was a declaration of intent, but we have no legal basis whatsoever." According to the government, the mineral resource gravel can be mined at any time, unless the community wants to get involved in planning there.

"The hole doesn't suit me either, but if we agree, then we can at least try to impose certain conditions," said Nominacher.

Georg Els jun.

(AWG): Now one can formulate stipulations with the agreement.

But whether you still have a say, should the district office replace the agreement?

Oskar, on the other hand, saw a good reason for rejecting the plan: "We have recently mined a lot of gravel areas and we also have to think of those who still need gravel after us.

You should push it more slowly.” Sebastian Klinger (CSU) also said: “I will not agree with that.

We already have so much gravel mining in the community and it's like a salami tactic to me," he said of the operator. "He starts with a small lot and then eventually buys the rest together."

"There are laws, we can't get around it," said Maria Feckl (Greens).

But she doesn't see it in the interest of the municipality and its citizens that even more trucks drive through the town - because that's exactly what will happen if the gravel is transported in the direction of the A 94.

"That's why I won't agree," said Feckl.

"It can't be that we give in, agree and continue to cleave our landscape if at some point there has been a declaration of intent," said Gerhard Eicher (CSU) and complained: "You are actually powerless against the whole thing." Franz also said that -Josef Obermaier (AWG): “Gravel mining is privileged.

You can get angry, but it doesn't help.” In the end, the decision was close: the municipal consensus was 9:8.
