Integrated urban development concept
Our municipality, with all its contradictions, is at an exciting point in its development: we have innovative companies as well as industry that is undergoing change. We have the metropolis of Berlin on our doorstep as well as rural areas. We have a strong demand for building plots, but at the same time we also need sufficient daycare and school places. We have forests, meadows and lakes, but also an open-cast mine, the motorway, a federal highway and various state roads with enormous traffic congestion.
All of this needs to be brought together. The so-called "Integrated Urban Development Concept" (INSEK) exists for this purpose. An unwieldy word for the question of how the people who live here envisage their community in 10 to 15 years' time. How do we want to develop? Where are the limits to our growth?
On 29 February 2022, the municipal council adopted the INSEK 2035. The municipal council is informed about its implementation once a year.
