The people of rottershausen have shown that they stick together. For this there was now a price. Anette vom berg-erbar won the special prize of the bavarian farmers' association in the competition "our village has a future – our village should become more beautiful" handed over to rottershausen at district level. During the tour through rottershausen, the community and the cohesion of the generations were clearly noticeable. In the village, young and old approach each other, and living together is characterized by mutual respect and trust.
The sustainable handling of foodstuffs has always been very important to the women farmers of the bavarian farmers' association. They are involved in a wide variety of activities to promote dialogue between producers and consumers. During the tour of rottershausen, the committee was treated to french plootz and tarte flambee at the farmer's house. The diversity of the village community was particularly evident here in this community center. That's why the bavarian farmers' association's special prize of 250 euros was awarded for the preservation and further development of the "farmer"s house" awarded in rottershausen.

Fruit press and oven

Here also a possibility was created for all burgers to use their self-produced fruit sensibly and completely themselves. This creates the incentive to put fruit trees back in the garden as well. But not only the fruit press, but also the coarse oven and the slaughter room round off the great offer in this community center. Here, families can take responsibility for themselves and maintain a large degree of regionalism and autonomy through their own efforts. Ms. Vom berg-erbar wanted as many people as possible to continue to use the services offered at the community center. 

The youth of the kronach branch of the german federal agency for technical relief (THW) took part in a training and exercise weekend at the wartberg youth campsite near selb. A total of 15 children and young people from the district of kronach deepened what they had already learned and took on new challenges.
Locating and transporting injured persons, the correct installation of a suction and release line, lifting a container of old glass with the appropriate lifting power tools, and a high rescue in a quarry 15 meters deep – the THW’s hof regional office and the selb local association organized a jam-packed training and practice weekend for the THW’s junior staff at the wartberg youth campsite. A total of 60 children and young people from the THW local associations of kronach, kulmbach, pegnitz, marktredwitz and selb took part with 26 supervisors.
The kronach local association was represented by four female and eleven male young people aged between ten and 17, as well as a total of six supervisors, led by local youth representative dominik lauer, who was responsible for the organization from the kronach side.
The burial was immediately followed by the first task, which lasted well into the night: a walk by coordinates and with radio. This training was intended to help the young people overcome any insecurities they might have about using the radios.
The next day, the task was to rescue injured people at various stations under realistic conditions. "We have deliberately mixed the groups. The young people should get to know each other better and learn to work together. Teamwork and the security of being able to fully rely on each other in the field are very important in our work.", rudiger maetzig, head of the THW’s hof regional office, emphasized the importance of the job.
The third day included a final meeting and ended with the dismantling of the warehouse. For the young helpers of all local associations an unforgettable weekend came to an end.

Accident on the road between mistelfeld and lichtenfels near the hospital – on friday at about 11 o’clock a truck "drove almost unbraked into a vehicle of the bamberg state construction office", reports the lichtenfels police. The employees of the construction office were carrying out milling work on the right side of the road (in the direction of lichtenfels).

Lichtenfels district: unchecked ramp-up

According to witnesses, the truck driver wanted to overtake the construction office vehicle. The driver presumably made a mistake while overtaking and crashed into the rear of the mowing vehicle. "He pushed the vehicle about five meters forward", the lichtenfels police explain.

That the "am eidig" building area is to be developed what will and should come was clear to everyone. However, the traffic connection of the 22 building sites between prach tinger strabe, the cemetery and the norma traffic circle was controversial. By a vote of 14 to 7, the council on tuesday voted to open up the 2.5 hectare site with a continuous, but not straight, road. They unanimously pleaded for the flat land use plan to be changed and designated as a "general residential area" expel.
Thomas kleylein from the planning office HTS explained the current state of affairs to the councils: 22 houses can be built on a buildable area of 16270 square meters; 3835 square meters are designated as traffic areas, 3800 as ground areas; a 460 square meter playground and three parking lots are planned.
The continuous road links the residential area to prachtingerstrasse and balthasar-neumann- and dientzenhoferstrasse. Intentionally, this five-meter-wide road – with a 1.5-meter sidewalk – does not run in a straight line, but winds its way through the development area.
In the center of the construction area, a rough site was planned, kleylein continued. On the sites – 700 to 925 square meters in size – detached residential buildings with up to two full stories and a maximum ridge height of 9.5 meters are to be built. A strip of grass is kept free along the cemetery wall.
Franz bohmer and heinrich kunzelmann (both ) criticized the draft plan. On the one hand, because the erschliebungsstrabe was too narrow for farmers with wide machines heading for their fields (bohmer), on the other hand, because this strabe could be abused as a through strabe (kunzelmann).
Mayor bernhard storath expects the plots to be ready for building between fall 2016 and spring 2017.
Now the draft plan will be submitted to the authorities and associations for comments and publicly displayed.

Comment: planning with obstacles

The ebensfeld rate has not found the key to success. But that was clear to all involved from the outset. Even during the preliminary discussions on the draft development plan, there were differences of opinion about the type of development. While the CSU had initially envisaged a straight-line development following the high-voltage line, the free voters vehemently advocated a winding, narrow road that would not encourage through traffic. Now a compromise has been found: the planner has taken into account a curved roadway. Because the 110 kv line cuts through the construction area and borders a former landfill site, it was not easy to portion the plots sensibly and to snake a road through them.
Of course, the fact that the wastewater mixing system is once again planned for this construction area is still a problem. The ecologically more sensible separation system, which drains rainwater into separate sewers, would be desirable. According to the planner, however, this would make the development much more expensive. Nevertheless, the protection of the environment should have priority when planning in the future.
