📋 Tender Overview
An extensive restructuring of urban development funding will be implemented in 2020. With the three new programs we are making urban development funding easier and more understandable. This means that we are still a reliable partner for Bavarian cities and municipalities said Bavarias Building Minister Kerstin Schreyer . The Growth and Sustainable Renewal program makes an important contribution to the sustainable internal development of cities and municipalities. Our goal is to mobilize local area potential. We want to eliminate vacancies and create livable quarters on industrial commercial or military brownfields Schreyer continues. Received this year242 cities and municipalities across Bavaria received funding of 68 million euros .Thanks to the urban development funds for example Ochsenfurt Weststadt which has so far been largely characterized by commercial uses can be developed and upgraded in the Lower Franconia administrative region. After relocating a chemical business the city has the opportunity to revitalize the fallow land near the old town and to provide it with new uses. In particular the directly adjoining public banks of the Main are to be given a new quality of stay in the course of urban renewal. The city of Waldsassen in the administrative district of Upper Palatinate intends to renovate the building at Brauhausstrasse 2 which has been vacant for many years in order to create valuable inner-city and affordable living space. As a result the city center is sustainably strengthened as a residential location and an attractive residential area is created.In the community of Scheyern in Upper Bavaria the 450-year-old former forestry school can be preserved and re-used with funding. The identity-creating monument is to house the communitys new community center in the future. In the historic town center the new town center of Scheyern will be created with the planned neighboring new town hall building and spacious village square areas.The Growth and Sustainable Renewal program supports 242 municipalities across Bavaria. The federal and state governments are investing around 68 million euros in the municipalities. Together with the investments of the municipalities this results in a total volume of around 100.1 million euros. The main funding priorities in 2020 are the structural adaptation of the urban infrastructure the reuse of industrial commercial or military fallow land the improvement of public spaces and the preservation of buildings with architectural significance. The new program provides a funding instrument that can be used to provide targeted impulses for new developments.For the 2020 program year the federal and state governments have reduced the urban development programs to three programs Living Centers Social Cohesion and Growth and Sustainable Renewal. An important contribution to reducing bureaucracy and making it more flexible. Federal Minister of the Interior Seehofer We are streamlining our funding structure. We are thus making it easier for cities and municipalities to implement their projects. In addition climate protection is becoming a requirement for funding. There will be no more urban development funding without climate protection in the future. In addition to energy-efficient building renovation the improvement of inner-city natural areas is an essential element. Attractive green and open spaces not only increase the quality of life and living in cities and municipalities but also ensure a better urban climate. Open spaces with a variety of play and leisure facilities also promote the health of citizens.
