Miesbach – The Miesbach district committee has spoken out in favor of the current budget draft.
New loans should not be taken out.
The district of Miesbach defies the mood of crisis.
It is true that "economy and economy" are the top priorities here, as District Treasurer Gerhard de Biasio said in the district committee on Wednesday (November 30).
Nevertheless, he submitted a budget to the board, which met with unanimous approval.
No new borrowing is planned for the coming year, but the district has to take around 12.5 million euros from its savings in order to be able to cover its financial needs.
De Biasio had already announced the financial gap to the district council at the end of October.
The Round Table - the body received great praise from all factions - then managed to save almost 2 million euros during the budget deliberations.
"In difficult times, we have a budget that also points to the future," Alfons Besel (FWG) emphasized the positive aspects.
For him, this includes “that there was no serious talk about increasing the district levy”.
The assessment rate remains at 52 points, which nevertheless gives the district additional income of almost 6.1 million euros compared to the previous year (82.4 million euros) due to the allocation power of the municipalities.
However, the district also has to transfer 2.6 million euros more (37.4 million euros) to the district of Upper Bavaria.
Money for public transport, schools and the district office
The district committee also praised the fact that spending on local public transport has risen to almost 3.1 million euros.
Almost 1.2 million euros of this will flow into the expansion of the bus lines planned in the local transport plan and a good 1.2 million euros into mobility development.
The district is planning 7.1 million euros for investments in its schools, including for the general renovation of the vocational school.
Almost 10.1 million euros are planned for 2023 for the replacement building of the district office, which is to be occupied in 2026.
The district takes around 12.5 million euros in liquid funds, “from the savings stocking”, as de Biasio said.
He does not plan new loans for either 2023 or 2024.
In the two following years, however, things will not go entirely without them.
In order to finance the investments, the treasurer expects 5.1 million euros in new loans for 2025 and 4.2 million euros in 2026.
However, the level of debt will not increase significantly because it will be repaid at the same time.
Liabilities have recently fallen steadily, they are expected to be EUR 66.1 million at the end of next year and thus around EUR 4.7 million lower than now.
The district council will make the final decision on the budget in mid-December.
