Save the Bonn Market
Bonn --
Problem Child Bonner Weekly: motley stalls and carts.
Again and again, large gaps in the square outside the Old City Hall - and the economic crisis or the competition from the supermarkets and share many dealers so it must be quite dichtmachen.
Who can save our Bonner market as it is attractive? Now, the policy makes steam. Bonn's Mayor Helmut Kollig District (SPD): "On 17 November there is a meeting of all factions and groups. Topic include: Bonn's market. "
Kollig's prime "market guild" in sight: "What we were aiming for the market is not reached." The market offers a consistent picture, the stands are placed higgledy-piggledy.
Because it is always between traders and operators, who call the shots since April 2008, Crash, Kollig calls "more finesse" from the "market guild. Threat of the district mayor: "We can also undo everything." Does that mean in plain language: The market could run again under municipal direction.
SPD politician Herbert Spoelgen criticized the "bleak picture" of the market that the offer had not improved, that for weeks less than 20 stalls were open. The administration is on 1 December in Bonn Bezirksvertretung comment. "Market guild" attorney Frederick Holzhauer falls from the clouds when he heard of allegations. "We have now more classes than before." And one of two new florist, tea and spices, honey, the Caritas Suppenstand, the bread truck.
For the new hole at the obelisk promises Holzhauer: "She will probably be close in 14 days." Then there stood one Selbstvermarkter, offering an even more lack of inventory. And as for the "cabbage and beet-reproach:" Our hands are tied. Remain free, the sightline to the Town Hall must continue to Sternstraße we can not. "
EXPRESS Conclusion: market-people, politicians and managers need to contact urgently at a table. The market is the heart of the city - and weiterschlagen must prevail!
