Clean toilets in Bad Oldesloe: Seniors demand nice toilets!
In the tranquil Bad Oldesloe, in the Stormarn district, a positive change is coming: the plan for the introduction of the “Nice Toilet” is currently being discussed by the city’s planning committee. This concept, which has already proven itself in other cities, aims to provide visitors to the city with free toilets in shops - without forcing them to eat. This will not only meet the needs of citizens, but will also benefit businesses by attracting more foot traffic. NDR reports, that the Seniors Advisory Council has criticized the lack of clean and accessible public toilets in the city. This initiative could be a step in the right direction.
Since ancient times, Bad Oldesloe has struggled with the state of its public toilets. The sanitary facilities were repeatedly criticized as inadequate, especially by older citizens. The introduction of the “Nice Toilet” could help address these concerns and ensure greater hygiene and accessibility. The Planning and Economic Committee now has the opportunity to show a good hand in implementing this concept and improving the quality of life in the city.
Ecological initiatives in other cities
If you look beyond the borders of Bad Oldesloe, there are many creative approaches to improving the toilet situation in cities. In Essen, for example, chemical toilets in the city garden were replaced by environmentally friendly eco-toilets that are based on composting and promise to be odorless. Such environmentally conscious solutions could also be considered for Bad Oldesloe in order to make the public space even more attractive. The city of Essen shows how to break old habits to meet modern demands.
In addition, initiatives such as the seasonal installation of mobile toilets in barbecue areas in Essen have made a significant contribution to closing supply gaps. These mobile toilets are available from April to October and could also be implemented in Bad Oldesloe as a temporary solution in heavily frequented areas, especially during events or festivals.
A step in the right direction
Overall, it shows that the city of Bad Oldesloe is on a promising path to tackling the toilet problem with the idea of the “Nice Toilet”. Exchange and learning from other cities are of great importance. A combination of fixed and mobile toilet facilities could not only enhance the cityscape, but also take into account the needs of citizens and visitors.
The coming weeks will show whether the concept will be approved by the planning committee and will soon become reality. One thing is certain: the pressure on the city administration is growing, and it is up to them to put the initiative into action - for a clean and hospitable city of Bad Oldesloe.
