25 percent fewer strabs in Diessen's promenade

Dießen – Between spring 2014 and autumn 2015, Mühlstraße and Untermüllerplatz were extensively renovated and completely redesigned. This was preceded by years of sometimes conflicting discussions in the municipal council and public participation about the future appearance of Dießen's "promenade and living room". In the meantime, people have become friends with the consistently paved result, although up to now things have been fermenting behind the scenes.


Dießen – Between spring 2014 and autumn 2015, Mühlstraße and Untermüllerplatz were extensively renovated and completely redesigned.

This was preceded by years of sometimes conflicting discussions in the municipal council and public participation about the future appearance of Dießen's "promenade and living room".

In the meantime, people have become friends with the consistently paved result, although up to now things have been fermenting behind the scenes.

In 2015, the municipality asked residents for advance payments for the road construction contributions (Strabs), but some of these were not accepted.

Because of the different structural design due to various traffic functions, billing was done in four "sections".

Mühlstraße is a traffic-calmed local street with walking speed for cars and equal rights for passers-by and walkers.

The part from Untermüllerplatz to the railway underpass or the entrance to the lake facilities counts as a pedestrian zone.

Several residents had lodged objections to the contribution notices at the Landsberg district office, which were rejected in 2019.

The cases went to the administrative court in Munich, which heard them for the first time in the summer of 2021.


The proceedings of the owners on the western and central sections of Mühlstraße have been discontinued.

The court had signaled to the plaintiffs that they might not have been asked enough expansion contributions because the Dießen market billed Untermüllerplatz separately.

The court recommended that the homeowners on the eastern section of the pedestrian zone reach an amicable agreement with the municipality, but this failed.

At the end of November last year, there was another oral hearing before the administrative court in the state capital.


In the judgments that have now been served, the court essentially established the following facts: the market municipality was in principle allowed to collect road construction contributions for the construction work.

The court also did not object to the delimitation of the four sections due to the different traffic functions in the eastern section of the pedestrian zone, which ultimately only had to be decided.

The residents would have to accept that the contribution rate per square meter would be significantly higher than on the western and central sections of Mühlstraße.


Nevertheless, the plaintiffs achieved a partial success.

Because, according to the court, the Dießen market should have included a "backyard property" south of the Mühlbach in the contribution statements.

This would have reduced the individual contribution burden of the residents.

The court also made a correction regarding the “corner reduction” for two other properties because the properties border on several streets.

With the new judgment of the administrative court, the plaintiffs achieved a contribution reduction of around 25 percent.


After the road development contributions were abolished at the beginning of 2018, there will probably no longer be any final contribution notifications for Mühlstrasse and Untermüllerplatz.

Administrative court spokeswoman Dr.

However, Simone Hilgers still expects a “fictitious final account” from the market community.

Furthermore, the verdicts can still be appealed.
