Bruehl Rosenkranz

Mayor Barbara Ludwig invites you to the third Brühl Citizens' Platform on Monday, 26 November 2012. The event will take place from 5.30 p.m. in the old boiler house of Chemnitz University of Technology in the area at Straße der Nationen 62. Citizens and representatives of the media are cordially invited to find out about the status of developments in the Brühl district and to discuss them with those involved.

Lord Mayor Barbara Ludwig, TU Rector Prof. Arnold van Zyl, Brühl manager Dr Urs Luczak and other participants and partners will report on developments since the last citizens' platform. Citizens are invited to contribute suggestions and discuss future plans in an open dialogue.

Parallel to the launch of the SOP - Active Urban and District Centres funding programme, the Brühl Office on Brühl Boulevard (on the corner of Untere Aktienstraße) has been available as a contact point for interested parties and stakeholders since mid-September 2012. The office serves as an open information and advice centre as well as a meeting point and workshop. From here, Brühl Management coordinates the individual ongoing activities - including support for the initial redevelopment activities of private owners, support for individual projects such as the Musikkombinat in the Karl Liebknecht School, the organisation of events, exchange in open Brühl rounds for joint design as well as centre and commercial space management. Brühl management is supported by the KiQ - Cooperation in the Neighbourhood project, which is run by Haus und Grund Chemnitz together with the city, the GGG and the district craftsmen's association and is responsible for contacting and exchanging interests with private property owners.

These and other activities, such as the ongoing plans to set up the Chemnitz University of Technology's central library in the Alte Aktienspinnerei from 2014, will be reported on and discussed at the citizens' platform on Monday in the old boiler house at Chemnitz University of Technology. Afterwards, there will be an opportunity for open dialogue at information tables in the Brühl Office.
