Bosenheim outdoor pool in front of the final: Laws are imminent!

The dispute over the outdoor pool in Bosenheim, a district of Bad Kreuznach, has reached a new highlight. On Thursday, the city council of Bad Kreuznach decided to finally stop the operations of the outdoor pool since 2024. This decision could now lead to the judicial clarification of a decades of conflict, which began with the closure of the bathroom last year. The local advisory board has the opportunity to complain against this decision what the situation could further escalate, since the lawsuit is to be submitted to the Koblenz Administrative Court in the next few days, such as the Rhein-Zeitung reported.

The closure of the outdoor pool was justified with a significant loss of water, which is around 40,000 liters every day. The city of Bad Kreuznach presented this with the challenge of initiating urgently needed renovation measures. So far, however, the city council has made no money in the household for the necessary renovations. In this failure, the local advisory board of Bosenheim sees a reason for its lawsuit and asks the city to comply with its contractual obligations from 1969, which provide for a assumption of costs for the renovation. These demands are made by the SWR Aktuell that would also be willing to withdraw the local advisory board, should the city with the renovation start.

Financial aspects of the renovation

In the years 2021 and 2022, the city of Bad Kreuznach each invested 150,000 euros in the outdoor pool, but there are further investments on the brink. Experts assume that considerable funds are necessary for the complete renovation of the outdoor pool to ensure both the functionality and the safety of the bath. The support association, which has existed since 1995, takes care of care and green areas of the area, but is dependent on government support in order to carry out more extensive renovation work.

In a general funding of 400 million euros for 2023 from the federal program "Refurbishment of municipal institutions in the areas of sports, youth and culture", Bosenheim could find opportunities for financial support. Federal Minister Klara Geywitz has launched this program to help cities and municipalities with the energetic renovation of their facilities. The Federal Architect Chamber emphasizes that the funding areas to climate -neutral heat supply and reduce Resource consumption. This could be an advantage for the Bosenheim outdoor pool.

political reactions and outlook

The reactions in the city council are mixed. Both the CDU and the SPD have welcomed the legal clarification of the dispute and emphasize the need for decisions that could secure the future of the outdoor pool. The dispute not only reflects the difficulties with which local politics is confronted, but also the challenges that the municipal administration has in the implementation of long -term investments in infrastructural projects.

In the coming weeks, it will be shown whether the city of Bad Kreuznach will react to the lawsuit of the local advisory board and whether the outdoor pool is actually renovated or whether the legal dispute seals a final closure. The coming days will be crucial for the citizens of Bosenheim, whose hope for a revitalized outdoor pool in the suspense
