Goslar relies on green oases: Funding program for greening extended!

In the city of Goslar, the Council made an important decision on June 24: The funding program Stadtgrün³ was adapted to better exploit the funding from the federal program "Future -capable inner cities and centers (ZIZ)". The measures to green roofs, facades and courtyards are not only good for the cityscape, but also make a decisive contribution to improving the quality of life.  Goslar.de Before that, the deadline was only until July 25th, which motivates many property owners and beneficiaries to drive their green projects as soon as possible.

There is a special focus on the cancellation of the financial upper limit per square meter: While grants of 20 euros were previously offered for the refrigeration and 30 euros for green roofs, this limitation is now canceled. The city not only wants to make it easier for the middle outflow, but also create more flexibility in planning the processes.

Diverse support for greening measures

With a budget of up to 250 million euros, the federal program "sustainable inner cities and centers" promotes innovative approaches to increasing the attractiveness of urban rooms. There are between 200,000 euros up to a maximum of 5 million euros to the respective municipalities, whereby the city of Goslar offers an attractive funding rate of up to 50 percent for greening roofs, facades and farms in the historic old town. An interesting perspective for everyone who wants to deal with green elements in their own property.

But what does the whole thing have to do with climate change? The greening helps reduce the summer heat loads, tie dust and increase the humidity. In addition, the green courtyards of the decentralized intermediate storage of rainwater serve and relieve the sewage system. The social exchange among neighbors is also promoted by the creation of green oases, which contribute to the increase in the attractiveness of the living environment as new freedom.

city green as part of the solution

A key aspect of this development is the networking of city green with the existing urban area. Buildings such as roads, roofs and bridges can not only serve their original function, but also support climatic and social factors significantly. The measures include the greening of building facades and roofs that can have a positive effect on the environment by mitigating the consequences of climate change. This makes a valuable contribution to biodiversity and biodiversity in the city.

The decision of the city of Goslar to loosen the funds requested and at the same time extend the implementation period shows a clear commitment to promoting sustainable urban development. It remains to be seen which creative projects the citizens will realize in the coming months - but one thing is certain: With the right commitment, everyone can show a good knack for greening their property and at the same time contribute to improving the cityscape.
