more and more Berlin pulls it out into the neighbouring country. What a dramatic overall dimension of this “movement”, to illustrate Numbers, which determined the common land office for statistics of the two countries for the first time, on a daily level-question: are say from 1991 to 2017, in the meantime, and write 802.596 (!) Berlin to Brandenburg is pulled, the currently has around 2.5 million inhabitants, thanks to the Newly-Brandenburg in quite a stable trend.
conversely, it is moved in the three decades 529.164 Märker in the city with its 3.5 million inhabitants, a strong upward trend. In the balance of Brandenburg, where it was a few years ago to fears of depopulation and a dying villages, a Plus of around 270,000 new residents. It is a lot of in movement between Berlin and Brandenburg.
this is Precisely the Background to why the new “state development plan Berlin-Brandenburg capital region” (LEP HR) is a source of so much explosive that the cabinets of the two States at their first joint meeting this year, today, Tuesday, in Berlin, want to decide. It is a decision that is accompanied by a political Declaration of war.
In the daily mirror Interview, has set up the CDU-Chef Ingo Senftleben, wants to be after the Brandenburg-election in the fall of 2019 self-Prime Minister, now to the public: “As the Prime Minister of Brandenburg, I’m going to quit in the first week in a letter to the Land of Berlin, the country’s development plan.”
principle of a controlled, channeled development
But what is in the Plan at all? This cross-national master plan forms the basic strategy for the capital region by 2030. He is the basis for the development plans, land use plans in Brandenburg and Berlin, for residential and commercial areas, wind farms. That there are cross-border in General is something that is a nationwide novelty. The Common country planning Department of the joint authority (GL) was agreed in the years prior to 1996, the bursting of the fusion.
According to the 121-page draft LEP HR shall be allowed to be shown in the surrounding areas of large new residential areas only in those communities with railway stations, which lie to the S-Bahn and regional railway lines – so to the since the 19th century. Century grown “municipal star” of the metropolis. To Wandlitz and Werneuchen, are now recorded two new axes, the previous axis to Hennigsdorf to the top of the krämer extended.
the spaces between the axes should remain “green lung” and recreation space, for places there are restrictions. That this principle of a controlled, channeled development is being held, is a clear Position of the red-red-green Senate in Berlin and the red-red government in Brandenburg.
In Brandenburg there is, however, especially in view of the many into the Land of parents in Berlin are longer in the opposition and displeasure. In two participation process for the LEP HR, superseding the previous national development plan of Berlin-Brandenburg from the year 2009, have raised thousands of objections, especially towards the Build constraints.
The role of municipalities
infrastructure Minister Kathrin Schneider (SPD) has rejected criticism from local governments, but also of the Brandenburg CDU. Why local authorities can not decide everything by myself, declares the cutter Ministry in a clarification paper: “We want no uncontrolled settlement of porridge as a bacon belt”. Communities of nature, had, in accordance with the own municipality. “The view of the whole country is in the interest of the overall development but it is indispensable,” it says. “This forest, and meadows for Recreation, and not seeing eye to further car to generate traffic, because of the beautiful new residential area in the Green has no rail connection.”
According to the Plan, all municipalities should be allowed to grow, at least moderately: Per 1000 inhabitants is expected to identify every place a hectare of new residential areas, so far, there were 0.5 hectares. This would, according to Schneider-Department of municipalities since 2009, theoretically, around 500 hectares of new residential areas can plan, 140 acres had it been up to 2017. “Nevertheless, the new LEP HR will double this possibility of self-development.” And for centres, for larger places of surcharges will be granted. The inner development of towns and villages, such as the development of gaps is not restricted by the master plan.
Made for Outlet-Center From Tegel and for the parliaments?
From the point of view of the leaders of the new national development plan captures the dynamics of the growing of Berlin. “It is a place for new residential settlements in the whole of the Land of Brandenburg’s enough”, they say. “The settlement of the star provides a total potential for 515.000 of new residential units alone in the Berlin area of 290,000.”
For classification: 2017 moved according to the office for national statistics 30.930 Berlin to Brandenburg, about as much as a small city, and Vice versa 18.030 Berlin in the metropolis, by which Brandenburg was a Plus by 13,900 people. In the years before, the orders of magnitude were similar. The experts expect, in view of the increasing housing shortage in Berlin, and that this Trend will continue.
The Plan regulates a wide range of topics, such as new Outlet centre in the region. When the air transport of the still unfinished new Airport is to be anchored in Schönefeld as a “single location” and in order for Tegel final: “a scheduled flight traffic and package air travel with an aircraft are in Berlin and in Brandenburg on the transport Berlin-Brandenburg airport (BER) is permitted.”
And the parliaments? The be heard after the double-track decision of both governments before the development of the land will come in the summer of 2019. Decide the Parliament and the house of representatives may not want this Plan, the Brandenburg CDU-chief after the state election to terminate, however.
