The city party demands that the decision of the main and finance committee, passed with the votes of the CDU, FDP and the mayor on Wednesday, not to renovate the railway switch to the main track to Mussum and thus actually shut down the line to the industrial area, is not implemented. Reason for the so-called “suspension of enforcement”: “There are two resolutions from the past that have not yet been implemented and thus question the effectiveness of the current resolution. First of all there is the decision of December 19.12.2012, XNUMX. Then the mayor is commissioned to transfer the industrial main track to the Bocholt Railway Association. Although all the requirements of the railway association have been met, the decision has not yet been implemented, ”writes parliamentary group leader Dieter Hübers.
Another decision per integration of the connecting switch3 (industrial trunk line), with a voting result: 25 yes-votes and 20 no-votes there were from 23.11.2016. “For the city party, the question arises today, can two legally binding council resolutions be passed over by a new resolution without the council having to revoke the old resolutions beforehand?” Continues Hübers. This is exactly what Mayor Thomas Kerkhoff has to clarify now.
It is a pity that Mr. Kerkhoff with ignorance or consciously? Spreading wrong arguments. Why can only the Bocholter travel on a single-track railway line? There are one or more crossing stations for oncoming traffic. So there can be a train every 30 minutes, but there is always room for another one in between. For years it has been argued that nobody wants to drive there. Now several people want more, and soon because of the CO2 tax alone. And now they shouldn't. May I also remind you that there have been inquiries from the city in the meantime. But one replied that it wasn't possible.
Then why did you spend so much money on expert opinions? So we don't need any more, because you do what you want anyway.
When do you notice in the town hall that you are there for the citizens and not the other way around.
