friendly water prices, but how?

considerations of a member of

Dr. Eckehard Franz

City Council

Like all other citizens, I like to price reductions and increases. The reasons to accept for increases is difficult, especially if obstacles noisy false allegations that insight. The article by Dagmar Gorek does not contribute to clarification, but to the confusion. to subject an entire act responsibly Board "baiting" and lies, lies far outside the responsible approach.

With the realization that the increased fixed costs are to cover no more with the recent pay, Dagmar Gorek is right. But unfortunately, all their conclusions and false replies.

The economic and demographic reasons for increase in fixed costs are well known: the ever-rising gap between declining populations, decreasing water consumption and rising prices for materials, spare parts, energy, and also the wages and salaries. The city Coswig has always sought to keep the social burdens of the citizens as low as possible and to operate public services for all. Penny-pinching some said this, not us.

thought as socially negotiated and the large housing associations and increased only after 10 year break rents.

was WAB and faces the same challenge. The result was an almost annual and image-damaging discussion about price increases for water and wastewater. The finally 2008 introduced increase the basic fee proved to be a permanent solution . It was unfair because it violated the principle of equality significantly, relieved the tenant and the homeowners unduly heavily loaded. € 9.60 1 € per month were six floors or 50 cents, compared with high-rise buildings. By the way: we can be glad that the protesters have not Eigenheimer held in Meissen or Lommatzsch the dispute over court. They had good prospects to the fact that the court would have tipped the scheme.


a price driver has our city organized itself in 1995: City Council Decision approach to water , to take only fees and order the property owners no connection fees . In the "Battle of the contributions of" the resistance has prevented the landlord, contrary to the majority-backed draft resolution contributions. foremost the largest landowners of the city, the WGC and the loggers designating the insolvency of 8 million DM as promoting. Coswig years was far and the only municipality without contributions.

The replacement of the missing contributions through bank loans with high interest rates for the 50 million € investment Renewal of drinking water and wastewater network caused higher fees than elsewhere. Logical. They were put to good use. Overall, the result can be seen on the swift and effective work of employees of the MCA: 99% connection rate for the TW and 98% for wastewater. The reduction in water losses of over 20 to under 10% of a top score, and absorbs the costs for all.

Among the other "arguments" by Dagmar Gorek is to say:

• There are no subsidies for sewage disposal by the water division. For citizens, but only the overall outcome of the MCA is critical, but both divisions are managed separately and billed as the law requires it. (In a year all councilors present economic plan cost.) The place over several years "planning loss" in the waste water is removed.

• a higher burden of homes due to the length of the water lines, exactly the "residential lines" sounds fine for simple minds. Entitled it is not because they played in the overall network lengths a minor role. It amounts to 2% in value terms. And the dimensions of the main lines is based on the largest customers, the multi-storey buildings. Our network and its cost starts at the dam Klingenberg. The water plant in Dresden South Coschütz guarantees the quality and stability of our drinking water. Despite this long line lengths was and is the connection to the Dresden area the right solution.

• Community Meissen treatment plant as a "luxury" or "hobby" is to call after 10 years of city council activity with annual information on the economic reports a severe error and mislead the public. The designed for 105,000 population equivalents GKA cleans exemplary since 1996 the 5.5 million cubic meters of waste water from the 92 000 people connected in compliance with all discharge values and undercutting. Their utilization to 90% in heavy rain to reach 120% is fair. There was a cost-effective solution for Coswig and does not exist. The alleged connection with the potable water price does not exist.

Moreover, the two water boards provide a very good job, exactly confirmed by the auditors. It is a guarantee for stability and low costs for drinking water and wastewater. By this we are actively involved as a constructive opposition.

The found and the board of MCA adopted new compensation scheme is the result of a thorough one-year work. Germany wide search for all water companies to improve the remuneration arrangements which are more stable, long-term and equitable. The analysis showed that the other models (to individuals, in families with and without children, etc.) are not quite safe, effective and fair as was the model of the housing unit. Therefore, this model was preferred and adopted. The six € resulted from the establishment to cover fixed costs to a two-thirds of the fee and to incorporate the price increases in coming years. For at least five years, the fee is so stable.

Despite the obvious reasons why I voted against it because I have the additional burden on the poorest among us will not expect. Although she is only 5 € a month for most tenants of WBV and WGC (previously 1 € and in the future € 6).

We had agreed years ago to: hallmark of the Left should be: distinctness in competence and constructive advocacy, but not in the recklessness of dealing with the truth and his own people.

We should keep us in the future.
