EUR 10 Million Boost for Schleswig-Holstein's Rural Development
Government backs rural infrastructure initiatives - Administration backs endeavors promoting agricultural growth in rural areas
Hey there! Today we're talking about a chunky sum of cash being pumped into Schleswig-Holstein for rural development projects. The local government's shelling out approximately ten million euros to uplift the villages, improve local quality of life, and beef up infrastructure.
The State Minister responsible for rural areas, Werner Schwarz (CDU), confirmed that EU funds account for 8.5 million euros, with an additional 1.2 million euros from federal and state collaborative efforts aimed at improving agricultural structure and coastal protection.
These funds will mostly go towards village development projects, multi-purpose buildings, and revamping rural roads. According to Schwarz, multi-purpose buildings not only serve as venues for local supplies and education, but also as hubs for community life, fostering connections among locals.
The council has approved several projects that are set to receive over half a million euros worth of funding. These include the Market Treff Freienwill, the multi-purpose building "Our Village Center" in Alveslohe, and the education campus Kremperheide, each receiving around 1.5 million euros.
Moreover, the state is also supporting municipalities in expanding their rural road networks. Schwarz emphasized that well-developed roads are essential for both agriculture and tourism. As an example, the state is backing two projects in Fehmarn city.
