Tannesch - Quo Vadis Eriskirch

Posted by Mike Haller on Monday, August 18. 2008 at 12:00 in Private

A few years ago in 2005, there was a citizens' initiative to get noise protection against a newly built federal highway. The initiative was called Bürgerinitiative Bürger für Lärmschutz and was successful, due to the energy and passion of the involved people working towards the goal. We got noise protection. It's not perfect, but much better than what has been initially planned by the town.

Now, three years later, our town once again plans something with which some people do not agree. Especially the people living next to the newly planned industrial area are concerned. And once again, there's a citizens' initiative, and this time it's called Interessengemeinschaft Quo Vadis Eriskirch. Lead by Ralf and Manfred, the group protests against the industrial zone and collected 232 signatures from supporting citizens.

We are against an industrial zone in our neighbourhood!





50% vacation done

So, it's Sunday, great weather and half of my holiday is done. There are some new pictures over at my flickr.com, like the ones from Abenteuerpark Immenstaad or from a hike in Weingarten.

What I've done last week, besides chilling and sunbathing: going to a funeral, climbing in the woods, Family hiking, shopping, visiting Kulturufer, doing an iPhone Firmware Upgrade to 2.0 (that sucked - i lost my contacts and had to go back to a one year old backup). So, there's plenty of stuff left to do next week :-)
