Residents' meeting for Neuhausen-Nymphenburg to be held at Adolf-Weber-Gymnasium

The residents' meeting for Munich's 9th district, Neuhausen-Nymphenburg, is to take place on Tuesday 10 November at 7pm in the triple sports hall of the Adolf-Weber-Gymnasium, Kapschstraße 4. Lord Mayor Dominik Krause announced the date in consultation with the district committee. Mayor Verena Dietl will chair the meeting, and she and district committee chair Leonie Lobinger will open with an update on important issues and projects in the district.

The main topics are expected to include the future of the Galeria Kaufhof store on Rotkreuzplatz and the current status and timetable of building projects, including Palestrinastraße 3, the Paketposthalle and Backstage, and the Kreativquartier with the Jutierhalle and Tonnenhalle. Traffic issues are also on the agenda: pavement parking and the Gern parking permit zone, parking spaces for e-scooters, the Laim underpass and roadworks for the western tangent tram line, rat-running caused by roadworks on Landshuter Allee, autonomous buses in Gern, and routes to school at Margarete-Danzi-Straße/Wotanstraße and a school street.

Further items include the introduction of the yellow recycling bin, how to deal with future heatwaves, noise and barbecuing in the Hirschgarten, the impact of events in the Olympiapark, and noise from playgrounds. Under social issues, the meeting is expected to cover a second older people's service centre (ASZ) in the district and feared funding cuts for social facilities.

From 6pm to 7pm, residents can put questions to representatives of several city departments, including those responsible for parks, civil engineering, road traffic, energy advice and district inspection, as well as the Munich transport company MVG, the city's patients' representative, Munich Cemeteries and Funerals, and Leonie Lobinger. The seniors' advisory council, the police, the city information service and the local social services centre are usually also present.

Motions and questions must be raised in person at the meeting and submitted in writing. The form is available at www.muenchen.de/buergerversammlung and will also be handed out at the start of the meeting. Anyone wishing to vote is asked to bring official photo identification to prove they live in the district, in return for a card entitling them to take part in all votes. Motions passed will be displayed in full for the public at the district committees' northern office at Hanauer Straße 1, where the related city council and district committee papers can also be viewed.
