Magistrate sticks to use by clubs and groups - sale excluded
The future of the Zöllerhannes community center remains a topic in the Griesheim magistrate. At the meeting on Monday (April 28th), Mayor Verfa Krebs-Wetzl informed about the current status of the selection and award procedure for a new lease. The previously favored applicant has surprisingly withdrawn his interest.
The city currently has another application, which is to be examined intensively in the coming weeks. The magistrate again confirmed the central goal: the premises of the community center should continue to be available for Griesheim clubs, groups and the citizens.
The two halls of the property are particularly important in order to meet the growing need for event rooms in Griesheim, according to the city administration. Among other things, the demand has increased significantly due to changed usage situations in other facilities.
The preservation of the community center, which looks back on more than 300 years of history in city life, was already determined in earlier decisions of the city council. According to the magistrate, a sale of the property is not intended and contradicts the political decision.
In the event that there is no new lease agreement, an alternative operating and usage concept is currently being developed. This provides for a variety of and combined uses in order to continue to actively integrate the community center into city life.
