Refugee container placement reversed in Obergünzburg due to expressed apprehensions and reservations

In a press conference held on Thursday morning, Mayor Lars Leveringhaus announced that the controversial container facility for refugees will not be built at the planned location in Obergünzburg, but will instead continue to be housed in the existing building on the Forstweg.

The Rösslewiese, which was the planned location for the container facility, will not be used. This decision was made in response to the sometimes massive criticism of the proposed Rösslewiese location.

The container facility for refugees currently exists in the building on the Forstweg, and will continue to be used in Obergünzburg. No new location for the container facility has been specified, and no further details about the future of the facility have been provided.

The authorities in Obergünzburg had initially planned to build the container-based accommodation for refugees at the Rösslewiese, but the project has been stopped. The specific reason for stopping it is not detailed in the available information.

Mayor Leveringhaus did not elaborate on the reasons behind the decision to keep the container facility at the Forstweg building, but he did express his commitment to finding a solution that addresses the needs of both the refugees and the local community.

The decision to use the Forstweg building was made by the market town of Obergünzburg. The container facility will continue to provide temporary accommodation for refugees seeking asylum in the town.

While the decision to keep the container facility at the Forstweg building may be seen as a compromise, it is likely to be met with mixed reactions from the local community. Some residents have expressed concerns about the facility's impact on the town, while others have called for more support for refugees seeking asylum.

Regardless of the opinions, the decision to keep the container facility at the Forstweg building is a significant development in the ongoing debate about the best way to provide support for refugees in Obergünzburg. As the situation continues to evolve, it will be important for the town to find a long-term solution that meets the needs of both the refugees and the local community.
