Muller car driver prevents a major fire in neundorf

Thanks to the presence of mind of the driver of a garbage truck transporting waste paper, several residents of the "zum fortschentor" street were saved in the weitramsdorf suburb of neundorf were saved from more serious fire damage. The driver noticed smoke coming from his vehicle, immediately steered the mull car to the edge of town and alerted the fire department. The fire departments arrived immediately, they came from neundorf, altenhof, weitramsdorf, and dietersdorf.
The paper in the hold was on fire and smoke was billowing out of the mull car. The fire brigade quickly rolled out its hoses in the nearby river tambach in order to be prepared for a possible fire of the entire vehicle and to be able to extinguish the fire. In addition, the hydraulic hoses were disconnected. Breathing apparatus ready for possible use.

Cause unknown

To extinguish the fire in the interior, the rear flap of the vehicle had to be opened, which was associated with difficulties. A farmer's wheel loader was called in; this device was used to lift the flap by force. We can only speculate about the cause of the fire, said thomas schelhorn, commander of the weitramsdorf fire department.
He almost ruled out a fire in a previously emptied green trash can. Rather, it was a technical defect in the vehicle, he said.

Annegret kramp-karrenbauer's climate offensive

On the weekend, as greta thunberg stands entombed in the hambach forest, annegret kramp-karrenbauer calls for climate protection "with optimism and openness, with a spirit of research and imagination".

A "national climate consensus" is needed, she demands in a detailed guest article in "welt am sonntag". Sustainable development should be anchored in the constitution as a state goal, as proposed by bavarian prime minister markus soder (CSU). The choice of kramp-karrenbauer’s co-author shows that his own faction is on board: CDU member of parliament andreas jung is currently tinkering with the union’s climate protection concept together with his counterpart from the CSU, georg nublein.

Wish for flowers on the livestock market

Wish for flowers on the livestock market

There are many who would like to see more green in the livestock market. "In languages one is always asked about it", said norbert schaub, SPD spokesman. His faction had therefore submitted a motion a few weeks ago that the city should place plant cubes on the square. The motion now ran aground in the building, forestry and environment committee due to different design views.

"The trees are not yet very rough", explained schaub. Planting cubes would therefore provide additional quality of stay. It was a matter of creating an eye-catcher with something flowering, said his caucus colleague rita schaupp. According to the SPD’s proposal, the city should make the cubes available, and the fruit and garden association would take care of the maintenance and seasonal planting.

Mixed results after the ofra in coburg

After the fair is before the fair: already in december peter kinold wants to talk about the upper franconia exhibition 2015 in coburg. "We need to know, for example, how things will go on at the anger", says kinold. "Is there a hotel coming or not?"

The plans for a fundamental redesign of the angers are still on the table, even if it is currently very unlikely that they will be realized. Only the construction of a new school gymnasium in the southern part of the bennobenz sports complex is currently being pushed forward. But kinold, who wants to hold another regional fair on the anger in two years, needs to know today whether the space will still be available to him in the fall of 2015. At least he already has some ideas, what he wants to implement then.

Good sides, bad sides

Good sides, bad sides

He is satisfied. At least in broad terms. "The urban development of kitzingen is on the right track," says city curator dr. Harald knobling. There are many attractively designed areas – but of course there is also room for improvement.

Knobling moved to kitzingen in the mid-1980s. A lot has happened since then, especially in the last few years. During this time, building gaps have been closed and houses renovated. Housing that is better left in the city, rather than having to keep opening up new areas above it. The brewery yards are an example of this.

In kurzewind, more costs are incurred

Wind and rain blew on the ears of the members of the ebern building committee on their tour wednesday evening. "There is a lot of money buried here that we don't even see", said mayor jurgen hennemann (SPD) during a site inspection at the former barracks, where a rainwater retention basin and sewers are being rehabilitated.

Cleanup in barracks area

On site, martin lang, head of the construction office of the ebern administrative community, explained that a specialist company is currently busy renovating a rainwater retention basin in the upper area of the land where the tank reconnaissance battalion 12 was formerly stationed. "This basin has a diameter of 14 meters", said lang. Because nothing was done to it for a long time, various damages had occurred. The damage will be "underground" repaired, said the mayor. In addition to the interior renovation, three new shaft uncoverings had to be straightened, explained martin lang. He cited the amount needed for the cleanup: 173000 euros. Channel rehabilitation in former barracks area costs 468,000 euros. The work is expected to be completed by the end of the year. "You don't see anything of what is being renovated there", according to mayor hennemann.
In the kurzewind district, a small clearing system is currently being built, sewers and cables are being laid, and the entire width of the road is being reconstructed. Here martin lang explained that there are sometimes "high problems" of the canal. "But everything could be solved", he said.
On site, he showed what kind of base course the road has had so far. "The structure is 25 to 30 centimeters thick." Through the so-called "conservation acceptance" 700 square meters of pavement will be rebuilt in a short time, explained the mayor.
The additional sum of 15,000 euros for this project was covered by the amount allocated in the budget for the city's road maintenance program, so the citizens of kurzewind did not have to bear any additional costs.

Fsv needs a final furioso

He himself only looks at his team and does not want to rely on kersbacher schutzenhilfe. Hiltl's colleagues are in a similar position: "we want to do our part to make sure it's at least exciting, but I don't look at the other game until after the final whistle, says andreas uebler. He is in good spirits that his troop will keep the race for the class preservation exciting, especially since the FSV is strong at home. For four games grobenseebach is undefeated at home, took ten points.
"Unfortunately we didn't manage to take anything away from the tournament, despite good matches." One payer has heroldsbach still ahead – with an own defeat and a draw of the grobenseebacher hour even a decisive game in the room. "Then without me, betrayal of the vacationing uebler – and this planning gives a deep insight: he probably did not expect to have to tremble until the last day of play for the class preservation. Similar to heroldsbach, which seemed already secured in mid-april.
