The only thing that moved recently on the indoor pool construction site was a TV team from RTL.

The call for a better clarification of the debacle is meanwhile getting louder.

Dachau – Mario Barth from Berlin is actually known as a comedian.

For several years, however, he has also committed himself to fighting the waste of tax money.

With his program "Mario Barth reveals", which is broadcast two to three times a year at prime time at 8:15 p.m. on RTL, he shows - according to his own advertising - "how public funds in Germany are thrown out the window with full hands".

According to Barth about his program, there are “no limits” to the madness of the authorities in this country.

Dachau breakdown bath now even at Mario Barth

Construction sites in particular had made it into the show in recent years: the fact that more and more construction sites are becoming more and more expensive, take longer and the building law contains increasingly absurd regulations is the core of the criticism.

Incidentally, the program is co-moderated by Reiner Holznagel, President of the German Taxpayers Association.

The Dachau indoor pool has now made it into the – inglorious – series of construction sites that Barth and Holznagel report on.

The broadcaster confirms that the shooting in Dachau has been completed.

The broadcast date is “probably in the May broadcast.

Answers to the most pressing questions about the construction - When will the indoor pool be finished?

What will it cost in the end?

Will it continue at all?

– the Cologne broadcaster should have gotten just as little as the Dachau public.

CSU city councilor Florian Schiller recently complained in an interview with the local newspaper that "no dates are mentioned anymore".

The only thing that is certain is that an inventory of the half-finished building will take place in the coming months and that the result will determine whether it makes any sense to resume work.

Most of the city councilors responsible at the time, the mayor and the public utility seem to be at fault for the mess, as the architect of the pool is to blame, as he made false statements about both the complexity and the costs of the construction.

"We allowed ourselves to be talked into this project by colorful images," says Schiller.

Citizens demand clarification

But this is not enough for Christoph Prüfer from Dachau.

"How can it be," he asks himself, that more than 20 million euros have been spent, but no one on the part of the client and the client seriously wants to take responsibility for the ruined building on Ludwig-Dill-Strasse.

"I consider the building to be a negligent waste of people's money," said Prüfer.

I consider the construction to be a negligent waste of citizens' money.

Christopher Examiner

In an "open letter" to Mayor Florian Hartmann and the city council, he therefore calls for "clarification of the mistakes made" in the form of an "investigative committee with the participation of the citizenry, with free access to all relevant documents"!

This is the only way to create transparency.

Indoor pool again topic in the city council

However, this wish may not be fulfilled.

According to Josef Hermann, lawyer and head of the town hall, an investigative committee at the municipal level is “not planned”.

According to the municipal code, only the city council and works committee have the authority to oversee the administration.

The citizens can only express their opinion by means of submissions and complaints.

However, the effect of these petitions and complaints is limited.

According to Hermann, the administration has to deal with it, but "with an open mind".

That is, "they can also simply be noted".

Stadtwerke boss Robert Haimerl will at least ensure a little transparency in the tragedy of indoor swimming pool construction next Tuesday in the city council when he submits his regular status report on indoor swimming pools.

There he will certainly not answer Pfluger's questions - for example why the construction was "not accompanied with sufficient competence" by the client.

But he will announce that, after separating from the previous architect, there is now a new planning office that dares to take care of the problem bathroom in Dachau.
