Pressure for speed 30

Pressure for speed 30

The hochstadter kellerbergverein, together with the parents' council of the high school, is campaigning for a speed limit of 30 km/h on the kellerberg. Jungst, birgit volker and ulla rosensteiner from the parents' council, as well as karsten wiese from the kellerberg association, handed over a list with almost 1000 signatures to district administrator alexander tritthart (CSU). The aim of the action is to protect the numerous schoolchildren and visitors when crossing the road. In addition, the highly sensitive cellars are to be protected from further deterioration.
At the last meeting last year, hannah reuter, spokeswoman for the district administration, explained that the police and the district administration did not consider a speed limit of 30 to be necessary. Mayor, association and parents of the high school do not let up and so they ask together with mayor gerald brehm (JL) for a new review of the case.
Due to the relatively high speed of the cars, segments of the basement hill were in danger of collapsing. "A lot of money was invested in the cellars and now everything is slowly collapsing", said wiese. One simply has to reintroduce speed 30, which already existed once and was changed back to speed 50 in 2006.

Reasoned exception

Signs like "caution school were hardly of interest to any motorist, said birgit volker, who has also had negative experiences as a pick-up mother.
Mayor brehm drew attention to the totality of the situation. The schoolchildren unfortunately take the shortest way and in the matter of the cellar, thus culturally, the refusal was actually also not comprehensible. The state road 2763 is from the exit weberskeller to the kerschensteiner road an extremely sensitive area. "This is a justified exceptional case and the district authority could approve such a thing", said brehm to the district administrator.
Alexander tritthart received the request with great interest and goodwill: "the high number of signatures is a signal for me that the burghers are behind it." but due to the status of the state prosecution, the matter is much more complicated. The decision was made by the district office, but all parties involved had to be taken on board. This was the state building authority, the police and the lower traffic authority.
He suggested to the mayor that a speedometer should be installed at the site in question in order to be able to prove how fast people are actually driving.

Towers, castle gates, stairs, columns – the new hupfburg of the kronach district youth association truly lives up to its name.

Congratulations to the young craftsmen

Congratulations to the young craftsmen

Three or. For three and a half years, they baked bread, cut hair, worked on wood and metal, and "along the way" they learned a lot the school desk is also printed. Now the 107 journeymen were rewarded for their efforts in the hegelsaal and were officially recognized by the kreishandwerkerschaft bamberg.

"First and foremost, acquittal means getting rid of the many ties that bind you during your apprenticeship", explained district master craftsman manfred amon. In recent years, the trainees have been firmly tied to their workshops and schools, but also to their instructors, foremen and teachers, and have had to follow predefined procedures and methods in order to acquire professional qualifications. However, this was not harassment, but necessary in order to teach the young trainees a rough set of skills and knowledge in a short period of time. Amon pointed out that although they were released from the constraints of teaching with the handing over of the letters, new constraints would certainly arise in the course of their lives.

A clear commitment to culture

The rentamt speech, which has already been given by such illustrious guests as bamberg’s archbishop ludwig schick or the economic expert professor peter bofinger, was given this year by the cabinet member of the bavarian government, dr. Wolfgang heubisch, state minister for science, research and the arts.
The minister was buried by two hosts, firstly by industrial baldwin knauf, who made the premises available, and secondly by knauf’s legal counsel jorg schanow, who in his capacity as iphofen’s 3. Mayor and chairman of the CSU iphofen performed. Franz brosch, former member of the state parliament for the CSU and now managing director of the vbw (association of bavarian business) in coburg, had made the contact.
Even the iphofen wine princess laura seufert had, despite the pressure of deadlines, not to miss a visit and was charmingly called "royal highness" by heubisch titled. Like all of lower franconia, you and the franconian wine received a lot of praise from the minister, who added the promise to come to the asparagus season soon. After all, he is not only a wine drinker, but also minister of wine in his capacity for science.
Born in munich in 1946, he studied business administration and then dentistry after completing an apprenticeship as a banker. In addition to his work as a dentist, he was also involved in professional politics with the FDP and was elected to the bavarian state parliament for the first time in the 2008 state elections.
Before his appearance in the historic rentamt, heubisch had signed the city’s golden book and visited the knauf company and the knauf museum. The topic of his speech was "art in bavaria" heubisch had expanded the field of science to include the field of science.
"The decisive question for me today is: can we maintain our prosperity in the face of rapid population growth??", he began and then jumped right into his topic. That bavaria is a cultural state is even written into the constitution of the free state of germany. The mission is taken very seriously, the minister stressed: "the bavarian government invests more than half a billion euros a year in this area." this is a clear commitment to culture "which is anything but a superfluous luxury, but is one of the most important soft location factors".
His statement that the bavarian museum landscape comprises more than 1,350 institutions aroused astonishment in the audience. Many an unbelievable laugh could be seen when heubisch emphasized that despite the gross museums in munich, not everything goes there. There were eventually about 40 branch museums in all government districts.
Of course, the durerstreit was also mentioned, whereby heubisch affirmed that he had stood up for nurnberg, but then had to bow to the veto of the restorers. He did not contradict the suggestion of an audience member to bring the painting to nurnberg and leave it there.
He also began the second part of his speech with a credo, namely that of the freedom of science. "On the other side", he added, "i demand responsibility as a matter of course." one of his concerns is to admit people without a high school diploma who have completed vocational training to university. A second, to bring scientific centers to all parts of the state in order to avoid emigration and maintain strong regions. He advocated the influx of bavarian and foreign students, some of whom he hoped would stay.
"One-third of the budget goes to education and yet bavarian universities need tuition fees", stressed heubisch. An opinion that was not shared by all listeners.
In the lively discussion that followed, the main topic was the all-important MINT courses, i.E. Mathematics, computer science, natural sciences and technology, and the efforts to bring more women into these disciplines. It was about the many dropouts and possibilities of demand, about the tuition fees and the neglect of the subjects art, music and sports in school. Also lamented was the loss of prestigious german degrees such as "diplomingenieur". When the situation of the FDP was mentioned at the end, the minister of state sighed and referred with a bit of resigned gallows humor to the percentage lows that his party had already overcome. "Bavaria in any case", so he concluded "the coalition with the FDP does good."
