Refurbishment of Bornstrasse in Penzlin: Costs explode to 530,000 euros!

Penzlin, Deutschland - Bornstrasse in Penzlin faces a comprehensive renovation that is urgently needed. This is located near the regional school "Johann Heinrich Voß" and the old castle and is now being renovated with a total budget of around 530,000 euros. Originally, the costs were estimated at just under 200,000 euros, which Mayor Sven Flechner visibly surprised. The city council unanimously approved the allocation of planning and construction work on Tuesday, so that the start of construction should not be long in coming.

A central aspect of the renovation is the necessary renewal of the dirty water pipe and the refresher of the street surface. The entire street measures 650 meters and is also said to offer additional parking spaces for cars. However, these parking spaces, which are particularly popular in Penzlin due to the existing lack of parking space, have to be fully financed by the city because an owner of the former Schlecker had to jump off. According to Flechner, it is essential to take these measures promptly, because urban development funds are only available by the end of 2026, which implies a quick need for action.

financing and support

The city could possibly cover 60 percent of the renovation costs through funding. This means that the city would have to raise a share of around 170,000 euros in order to implement the project. Jens Kamin from the Penzliner Land electoral community emphasized the importance of this street for the urban infrastructure. In addition, the city council strives for special needs by the Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania Interior Ministry in order to obtain additional funds.

At the same time, there were also gratifying people from Penzlin: two streets, Lindenweg and Steinbergstrasse, were released after extensive construction work. The Lindenweg was completely redesigned, including the renovation of rain and dirty water channels and the adjustment of the drinking water pipe. This new street, which is designated as a traffic -calmed area, now has a modern surface made of reddish stones.

However, there are also challenges for residents: the deductible for road construction has risen from originally 13 euros to EUR 20.60 per square meter. Despite this increase, Mayor Flechner is trying to find a mutually acceptable solution for the residents so that the city treasury does not have to bear this burden alone.

A look into the future

Urban development funding, which also comes into play in Penzlin, plays an important role in strengthening municipal infrastructure, both economically and socially. The funding focuses on improving the quality of life in cities and municipalities, which makes projects such as the renovation of Bornstrasse particularly important. The federal, state and municipalities share the costs, which shows that the future of cities like Penzlin lies in joint efforts.

With the upcoming measures, not only transport connections are improved, but also the quality of life for citizens is increased. If these projects are successfully implemented, Penzlin could become an even more attractive place for all residents and visitors.
