Baunatal: Workshops on housing development
Image: Archive City of Baunatal.In recent years, many apartments have been built on vacant lots as part of a land-saving urban development strategy. It is now increasingly difficult to find suitable plots for housing construction in existing districts. Building new districts on the outskirts means interfering with nature and the landscape. This is just one example of the different perspectives on housing development in Baunatal. A total of six workshops therefore offer a space for discussion and joint work and bring together politicians and administration, companies, property owners and residents. The wishes and needs of local people are included in the exchange, the advantages and disadvantages of various concepts are discussed and recommendations for urban development are derived. The workshops take place in the Baunatal town hall. Interested parties are cordially invited to help shape the future of housing in Baunatal.
