The Murnau Seniors Advisory Board wants to start a citizens' initiative so that the Omobi local bus continues to curve through the town.

The committee is convinced that it will receive acceptance similar to that of the citizens' application. 

Murnau

- The news comes as no surprise: the Senior Citizens' Advisory Board (SBM) Murnau, with the support of the Economic Development Association, is continuing its efforts to maintain the Omobi on-call bus.

"The citizens' initiative will therefore be prepared as the next step, launched and started at short notice," says a press release sent by SBM Chairman Rainer Paschen on Wednesday.

"We are in the process of developing a form," he told the daily newspaper.

"Once we have it, we'll get started right away." The SBM then wants to be "repeatedly" present in the market to collect signatures.

Paschen is confident because of the "extraordinarily positive and encouraging results of the citizens' application".

The conditions had been created within five days.

At that time, around 1,700 signatures were collected per Omobi.

300 could not be counted because of a formal error.

This left about 1400 valid votes.

"We are sure that we will experience a similarly rapid acceptance by the public," emphasizes Paschen.

The citizens' application was discussed at the special meeting of the municipal council on Monday, but was only acknowledged.

A line-guided system is now to be introduced.

The corresponding motion by the Bündnis 90/Die Grünen, CSU, Freie Wahler, Mehr Bewegungs and SPD factions was brought forward, which infuriated the SBM.

Paschen: "We see this as an affront to the initiators, but especially to the 1,400 citizens who have spoken out in favor of the citizens' application."

Now the Omobi friends have to collect votes again.

"For an application to the municipality, we first need 9 percent, that is around 1,200 votes from the municipality's citizens and for a referendum a majority of the valid votes cast by voting residents of 20 percent," says Paschen.

That's around 1,800 to 2,000 votes, according to the list of citizens to be created by the municipality.

Peter Wiesendanger, Chairman of the Economic Development Association, emphasises: “We believe in the on-demand bus.

We have to bring him forward.” However, there is still a lot of room for improvement.
