Post-AfD Gathering: Wide-scale Ban on Party Events in Hugenottenhalle Ensuing
The rental ordinance for the Huguenot Hall in Neu-Isenburg is currently undergoing a significant revision, following the recent protests linked to the AfD election campaign. The city council has initiated this review to tighten regulations on renting the hall, particularly for political events.
Mayor Dirk Gene Hagelstein expressed gratitude for the largely peaceful behavior of the protesters during the AfD's election campaign event. He also thanked numerous citizens for their suggestions and criticism regarding the rental of the Huguenot Hall. The Mayor praised the restraint of the protesters, stating that their behavior honored Neu-Isenburg's Huguenot and Waldensian city.
The revision aims to exclude large party events from the Huguenot Hall in the future. The change requires a legal review before it can be implemented. Once approved, the new ordinance is expected to impose stricter conditions or outright limitations on hosting large political party events in the hall. This means that in the future, groups—particularly political ones—may face higher scrutiny or may even be barred from holding large-scale events in the Huguenot Hall.
The Mayor thanked the emergency services, the fire department, and the police for their efforts during the demonstrations. He also thanked the municipal committees for their involvement in the decision-making process for the rental ordinance revision.
A corresponding resolution proposal will be submitted to the city council. The final decision about the implementation of the rental ordinance revision rests with the city council. The process of the rental ordinance revision is ongoing, and the city council will make the final decision about the implementation of the new regulations.
- The city council's decision to review the rental policy-and-legislation of Huguenot Hall, particularly in regards to political events, has been influenced by the suggestions and criticism from general-news sources, including citizens and the emergency services.
- Once the current revising process is complete, other political groups might find it challenging to organize large events at the Huguenot Hall, as the new policy might impose stricter conditions or outright limitations.
