Nuthetal secures the future of the library and academy for 445,500 euros

The municipality of Nuthetal is planning to purchase an important commercial property in Bergholz-Rehbrücke, which has served as a location for the library and the Academy for the Second Half of Life for years. This decision is of great importance as the property at Zum Springbruch 6 is currently owned by a community of heirs who intend to sell the property in the coming months. Treasurer Stephan Ranz has confirmed that the community of heirs definitely wants to sell.

The municipality has already received a purchase offer from the landlord. Mayor Ute Hustig emphasizes how important it is to secure the location in the long term so as not to endanger the future of the library and academy. A potential new owner could terminate the existing lease, which would mean the facilities could no longer remain there.

Purchase details and financial considerations

The draft resolution for the planned purchase is to be discussed in the Finance Committee on September 30th. The purchase price for the property is 445,500 euros, plus estimated additional costs of almost 38,000 euros. In a positive development, the owner would waive any outstanding rent payments if the municipality decides to purchase the property.

Another critical point concerns rent adjustments, which are linked to the consumer price index. This could lead to a retroactive rent increase of 10,214 euros. The treasurer has calculated that the effective purchase price, if savings and unrealized rent increases are taken into account, could fall to around 353,100 euros.

Outlook for the future

In summary, the community of Nuthetal is facing a decisive decision. Purchasing the property is not only an investment in existing institutions, but also a question of securing the location for the future.

The upcoming meeting of the Finance Committee will show whether the municipality can take a step towards long-term security of the facilities, which are of great importance to many citizens.
