As part of the nationwide urban development program "Urban Redevelopment West" is to be started this year to enhance the environment of the St. Nicholas Church structurally. Where the now demolished "Old Forge" was a beautiful place design is provided. The design by Professor Gebhardt, the urban planner, includes good access to the church and the cemetery and also improved the parking situation in this area.
Goldbach CSU is delighted that it has paid off her efforts for more freedom at this point eventually. That was of course not, because in the City Hall there were other plans!
What was the situation? In December 2006 the Building Committee members visited the site of the old forge and discussed already had a redesign. In February 2007 the municipality bought the property. The administration then made, supported by a planning office, a blueprint for a car park / parking garage on. It should have three levels of over 36 locations.
As part of a CSU-site inspection in November 2007, we were able to discuss in detail the situation with the neighbors on the corner Unterafferbacher Road / Willow Road Börner. We agreed: A parking garage is there in any case go! We developed the ideas for a design space and presents them to the current local election campaign. But the investment plan of the market Goldbach for the year 2008, which became public in January 2008 to advise the Building Committee still contained a "parking deck pastures Börner Street 5".
alternative plans were missing completely!
the end of 2008 were not on the building nor the market before other municipal planning. Therefore we introduced in January 2009 an application (download PDF here ) to give to our demands.
It is a success, that our expectations are met in accordance with the present planning now for the most part. The CSU Goldbach is pleased to be a good idea that has finally prevailed.
Our proposal for a design course in November 2007:
- After the demolition of the "Old Forge" is a retaining wall, possibly set up in terraces. The optical design of the wall was adjacent to the St. Nicholas Church to be adjusted.
- The resulting space is to defuse the curve to Unterafferbacher road. The space below the wall is planted and equipped with a bench.
- arises in the Willow Street Börner the opportunity to expand the existing parking bay to a place. If necessary, there are parking spaces provide for citizens who are restricted in their movement.
- The parking lot above the retaining wall is to be increased to facilitate the access and the in / out and to create more parking spaces. A barrier-free access from the parking lot to the cemetery is to create - and this is an important relief for people who are less mobile.
- a proposed already in the planning of multi-storey car park and 36 parking spaces, we reject categorically. The creation of open space that remains the bottleneck is our highest priority. The free view of the church, one of the few architectural highlights of Goldbach's will enhance our city and quality of life increase in the area. Parking spaces, which are required only for temporary activities in and around the church, a short distance, eg at the old school and the town hall, in place and to take into account in further planning for the center.
