Key Issues in Municipal Focus

• Renovation of the former Bühl schoolhouse was unanimously approved – a milestone for preserving historical buildings.
• New subsidy for child day care starting January 1, 2026: Clearer structures for day-care providers.
• 2026 budget successfully approved – with a long-term focus on sustainability and investments.

Renovation with a Future in Mind: The Former Bühl Schoolhouse

The renovation of the former Bühl schoolhouse was the focal point of the municipal council’s work in March. Measures to address moisture damage in the basement area were unanimously approved. The costs for the renovation of the southern and western sides amount to €23,220, for the northern side to €26,040, and for the vaulted basement to €8,200. Steffen Laux was tasked with planning, coordinating, and overseeing the renovation work.

This measure is not only a step toward preserving the cultural-historical heritage, but also a signal for future-proof infrastructure. The focus on structural renovation underlines the municipality’s long-term plan to make its building stock fit for the future.

Revised Child Day Care: Subsidies and Transparency

Another important topic was the adjustment of the structural subsidy for child day care. Starting January 1, 2026, the monthly subsidy will be set at €60, €80, or €100 in a lump sum, depending on the number of care hours. This change is subject to the condition that day-care providers may not charge additional fees from parents.

This regulation aims to increase transparency while ensuring the quality of care. It is part of a broader effort to strengthen child day care in Burgrieden and provide parents with greater security and planning certainty.

2026 Budget: Investment in the Future

The 2026 budget was unanimously approved. Although specific euro amounts or budget items were not explicitly mentioned in the meeting, it is clear that the focus lies on sustainable investments. In particular, the renovation of buildings, the support of local childcare facilities, and the development of infrastructure show a long-term planning concept.

The budget is not just a financial instrument, but also a municipal program – a reflection of the priorities of the municipality of Burgrieden.

Future-Oriented Community: Climate Protection and Energy Efficiency

The status report on the future-oriented community Burgrieden was acknowledged. Concrete measures such as the preparation of an energy and CO2 balance, the use of renewable energy, and the renovation of the sewage treatment plant are planned for the coming years. These steps show that Burgrieden is not only responding to current challenges, but actively setting the course for a climate-friendly future.

Construction Planning: Extension of the Building Permit

In the course of construction planning, the building permit for the construction of two semi-detached houses with carports and a single-family house with a double garage in Orsenhauser Straße was extended for an additional period. This is intended to enable the planned construction start and to complete the approval procedures.

The extension highlights the flexibility of the municipality in supporting construction projects that contribute to strengthening residential development and preserving the local structure.

Overview: Structure and Priorities

March in Burgrieden was characterized by structured decisions and clear priorities. Renovation measures, investments in child day care, budget planning, and climate-friendly initiatives show that the municipality remains active on multiple levels. The planned renovation of the sewage treatment plant and the expansion of energy efficiency are central points that ensure the future viability of the community.

At the same time, Burgrieden remains close to its citizens: With the new subsidy for day-care providers and the extension of building permits, the municipality is focusing on transparency, planning security, and citizen-oriented solutions.
