Event discussion on social preservation in Schönefeld

On Monday, September 8, from 5:30 PM to 7 PM, an informative event will take place at the POLIKLINIK Leipzig, Taubestraße 2 (admission from 5:15 PM). This event is aimed at providing answers and clarifications about the Social Preservation Ordinance that has been in effect in the western part of Schönefeld since February.

The purpose of the Social Preservation Ordinance, also known as the Soziale Erhaltungssatzung, is to prevent residents from having to leave their neighborhoods due to expensive renovations. It regulates what landlords can and cannot change in apartments, prohibiting changes in apartment layouts, use of apartments as commercial spaces, structural changes, and demolition projects without city approval.

Staff from the Housing Construction and Urban Renewal Office, as well as the Leipzig Tenants' Association e.V., will be present at the event to provide information and answer questions. The event is open to tenants, investors, and landlords, making it a valuable opportunity for anyone interested in affordable housing in Schönefeld.

The event aims to answer questions about reasons for preservation areas, the Leipzig expansion standard, and the distinction between social preservation rights and tenancy law. Further information about the event can be found online at www.leipzig.de/soziale-erhaltungssatzung.

Registration for the event is requested. You can register by email at [email protected] or by phone at 0341/123 5505. The event promises to be an informative and engaging opportunity for those seeking to understand the Social Preservation Ordinance and its implications in Schönefeld.

It's worth noting that the Social Preservation Ordinance has been practiced in several city areas since 2020, including parts of Eutritzsch and Connewitz. This event will be a great chance for residents of Schönefeld to learn more about how this ordinance can benefit them and their community.

We encourage all residents, investors, and landlords to attend this event and take advantage of this opportunity to learn more about the Social Preservation Ordinance.
