Herne plans 20 million euros annually for education and climate protection!
Herne faces a financial spirit of optimism that was initiated as part of a comprehensive investment program by the Federal Government. Denator Marc Alexander Ulrich recently announced that the city could probably receive around 20 million euros annually from a package of a package of 500 billion euros. These funds are planned for a period of 12 years and are to be invested in key areas such as education, transport, climate protection, digitization and population protection. The treasurer wants a coherent annual budget, since existing funding programs are often perceived as complicated and elaborately. Herne urgently needs funds that can be used flexibly according to your own needs. This is particularly important because North Rhine-Westphalia should receive 21 percent of the total in accordance with a preliminary calculation, which benefits the municipalities in the region, such as radioHerne.de reported.
A central project for which financial support is also provided is the development of former mining areas in Herne. The city has launched a comprehensive “development strategy” for the areas of the General Blumenthal mine and the Shamrock power plant. The aim is to renovate and economically renovate the largest coherent area of the city by August 2028. To do this, around 3.6 million euros will flow from the federal program "Stark" and 200,000 euros from state funds. Minister of Economic Affairs and Climate Protection Mona Neubaur emphasizes the importance of the project, in particular the citizen participation, which is integrated into the planning process, as in a report on Land.nrw is.
ecological renovation and economic use
The settlement of knowledge and technology-oriented companies as well as service industries is planned as part of this development. A high and green tech district on almost 25 hectares, with a high proportion of green areas, are planned. The initiative for the establishment of the "Techno Ruhr International" is also part of this project. A sustainable mobility concept is also being developed, which includes a cable car connection to the Wanne-Eickel Central Station. These ambitious plans were recently supported by funding notices, which Minister Neubaur to Mayor Dr. Frank Dudda presented.The project is in the context of the state government's 5-location program, which supports the transformation in the coal regions. A total of up to 662 million euros in federal funds can flow into this region to advance the change towards more sustainable economic structures.
promotion of urban planning measures
In addition, there are many years of support from the urban development funding in North Rhine-Westphalia, which is intended to help develop fallow land, squares and buildings in the long term. These funds come from both the state government, the federal government and the European Union. They aim to strengthen the attractiveness of cities and municipalities as economic, residential, living and nature locations. In 2024, a total of 204 projects with around 416.3 million euros will be funded to create new places, civil centers and other municipal institutions, which will further promote the positive development in the region, such as District Government-Koeln.nrw determined.
