In order to make wind power possible in the landscape protection area, the district of Munich is striving to change the ordinance for the Hofoldinger and Höhenkirchner forest.
The Ayinger municipal council now spoke out against this.
Aying
– The majority of the municipal council members voted 12:6 against the proposed amendment to the ordinance on the Hofoldinger and Höhenkirchner Forest conservation area.
The district of Munich is striving for the procedure, and Aying has also been asked to comment.
With the amended version, the district would like to take into account the possibility of having wind turbines built in the landscape protection area.
Exclusion effect for further areas
Aying has actually already laid down concentration areas in the land use plan.
According to the head of the building authority, Martin Schildmann, that would mean that the 164 hectares on municipal land would have an exclusionary effect on other areas.
His conclusion was: "We have actually already made our contribution." Especially since the municipality has also given some thought to where areas for wind turbines would work, because on the one hand the systems must also be accessible by vehicle, and on the other hand the power must also be transported away from a system will.
The route for a large bypass has also been marked in the protected areas.
Schildmann's opinion was to show "no anticipatory obedience".
“We are being deprived of our freedom of action”
Mayor Peter Wagner (CSU) explained that the amended version of the ordinance will not have any impact on the community for the time being.
But the ordinance would more or less undermine Aying's concentration areas.
On the other hand, Aying will soon have to think about how wind power energy can be represented on 1.8 percent of the municipal area.
Because that's what the legislature wants.
That annoys the head of the town hall: "We are being deprived of our room for manoeuvre." And it gets even worse: "We large communities have a disadvantage there," says Wagner.
Because densely populated municipalities like Ottobrunn would find it difficult to meet this requirement.
Christine Squarra (Greens) noted that not only one wind turbine may come into the community.
So there could be more.
Therefore, the planned regulation should be approved.
A majority, twelve votes to six, rejected the proposed amendment to the ordinance.
