Real Estate and Land Plots: Sales and Designations

In April 2026, several real estate decisions were central. The Committee for Finance and Economy recommended the majority approval of the sale of plot 658/1 in Ziemensstraße 50 in Glindow to private buyers. In the Local Council of Glindow, 5 voted in favor, 2 against, and 2 abstained.

In addition, the sale of the Kita site in Flur 21, Werder (Havel) was decided, with HGW favored as the buyer. The decision followed several preliminary negotiations and discussions in various committees. Contractual clauses regarding the creation of housing and the preservation of the playground were considered.

In addition to sales, designations were also approved, particularly the designation of the Eichenweg in accordance with § 6 BbgStrG. This measure serves better traffic management and the securing of the city's road space.

Association Funding and Village Life: Support from the City

In the local meetings, significant funding for associations and village events was once again decided. In Plötzin, Derwitz, Töplitz, Phöben, Kemnitz, Bliesendorf and Petzow, associations received funds for events, modernizations and recognitions. Examples:

• Plötzin: Funding for bowling lanes and village festival funds.
• Derwitz: 2,000 € for the 2026 village festival.
• Töplitz: Funding for internet presence and the soccer field.
• Phöben: Support for kindergarten events and fire department excursions.
• Kemnitz: Purchase of a book telephone booth and equipment of the community center.
• Bliesendorf: 2,000 € for the village anniversary "790 years of Bliesendorf".

These decisions show how important the city considers association work and village life. It supports not only cultural, but also social and sports activities in order to strengthen the community.

Urban Development: Parking Permits, Heat Planning and More

In the Committee for Urban Development and Infrastructure, several strategic decisions were made. The fee regulation for resident parking permits was approved with 7 approvals, 0 rejections and 1 abstention. This regulation is intended to improve parking management and at the same time create a fair fee structure.

Another focus was the creation of the municipal heat plan. With this measure, the city of Werder (Havel) wants to invest in renewable energies in the long term and increase energy efficiency. The planning will also form the basis for future heat projects in the city area.

In addition, the conclusion of a road usage contract with E.DIS Netz GmbH was unanimously recommended. The 20-year contract serves the secure electricity supply and infrastructure planning.
