At its meeting yesterday, the city council decided to sell a plot of land in the Rottluff-West industrial estate on Kalkstraße. Accordingly, the City of Chemnitz is selling two sections of plot 236/10 in the Rottluff district to Gesellschaft für Prozeßrechnerprogrammierung mbH (GPP Chemnitz mbH).

The first sub-area covers approx. 9,000 square metres, the second sub-area approx. 5,025 square metres. The purchase price is 35 euros per square metre, i.e. 315,000 euros for the first and 175,875 euros for the second part of the site.

GPP Chemnitz mbH will construct modern production buildings with around 1,840 square metres of floor space and an architecturally appealing office wing with around 900 square metres of floor space on the first plot. Construction is scheduled to begin this year in consultation with the civil engineering department, which is currently coordinating the construction of the access road to the industrial estate.
