Leogang in the upswing: Mayor Grießner presents success projects!

In the Leogang municipal office, Mayor Josef Grießner and Head of Office, Mario Payer, met for an open conversation about the current and future projects of the community. The two leaders draw a positive balance: the implemented projects in Leogang, including the initiatives such as the rider builder spring water and the fresh hydropower plant, are very accepted. The day care for children is also seen as a complete success, as meinbezirk.at reports.

The focus is currently on the “Essen on wheels” project, which is realized in close cooperation with the Prielgut retirement home. A new large kitchen is set up for this to ensure fresh and healthy food for the residents and users. The offer is aimed not only at seniors, but also at kindergarten children as well as elementary and secondary students. Voluntary employees of the Leogang Hilf team play a central role in extending the dishes. Annelies Hartl is one of the most active supporters of the aid service who enriches the service with her commitment. Information about this offer is available on the municipality's website, and if you are interested, you can register directly in the Prielgut residential building with Elisabeth Müllauer.

look at the future

But that's not all: the community is also planning further projects, such as the brook construction of the Messnerbach, for which the first work is to begin in autumn. And the financial situation of the municipality of Leogang could also share. According to the municipality, the financial situation is stable, so that no major investments were required in the near past. Nevertheless, as Mayor Grießner emphasizes, “Future investments could influence our financial plan.”

What makes Leogang so worth living? Grießner and Payer agree: the cohesion among the population is first class and runs through all ages. In addition, there is the breathtaking nature that attracts both locals and tourists and in which (almost) everyone is very popular for their leisure activities.

funding for rural development

For the future development of rural areas, there are also extensive funding opportunities that are provided through the federal states, as on bmel.de . The aim of this funding is to create regional strategic foundations for the further development of rural areas. Municipalities have the option of applying for grants of up to 75% of the project costs to work out integrated concepts for their development.

Overall, it can be seen that the municipality of Leogang is proud of what has been achieved and, with a view to the future, ensures that the entire population benefits from the new projects. No matter whether through healthy food, active community or funded development concepts - something is really offered here.
