Politics did the deliberations for the household Started in 2021. This, of course, is due to the insecurities and revenue shortfalls Corona-Pandemie and will therefore probably not be adopted until January or February of the coming year – if politicians can and will meet for their deliberations by then.
The basic structure can be summarized as follows: The State is balanced. The total volume amounts to 36.4 million euros. There is a gap of almost one million euros in the budget from which the current expenditure is financed, which can be offset by the reserves. Since the around 18 million euros reserve is an accounting figure, liquidity will no longer be fully guaranteed from 2021, so that a cash loan must be taken out in order to be liquid.
Debt level will double
The financial budget, so that Investments, can only be financed completely by taking out new loans, probably also in the coming years. As a result, the Debt level Double by 2024: from almost eleven million euros to around 22 million euros. Every Bückeburger then has around 1100 euros – municipal – debt; In 2020 it will be 550 euros. The ongoing renovation and the partial construction of the Am Harrl elementary school alone, with an estimated eleven million euros, account for around half of the new debt.
“The household can be seen as such, ”said the city treasurer Reiner Wilharm in the most recent meeting of the Economic and Finance Committee, the figures that can still be hit by a few imponderables. He stressed that none of the city’s voluntary benefits would be cut. Youth leisure center, meeting place, city library, music school, youth choir, cultural association and museum or, of course, the sports clubs continue to receive their money.
Investments postpone for a year?
The committee unanimously referred the figures to the parliamentary groups for further discussion. Although it is currently impossible to assess whether the parliamentary groups and groups in the council will be able to meet for their closed-door deliberations as usual in view of the renewed lockdown and the increasing number of positive corona tests, such as the committee chairman and CDU parliamentary group leader Axel Wohlgemuth noted that he had to cancel an exam planned for last weekend.
In the committee, politicians discussed whether certain measures could be postponed to the household To relieve 2021. In addition to the chamberlain also expressed Wohlgemuth the question of whether about the procurement of new ones Vehicles for the fire Department a 25 year old vehicle cannot stay in operation for another year or a dilapidated street cannot be bumpy for another year. Majority leader Jens Bartling commented that a postponement would come into effect later and would hardly reduce total debt. This prompted the treasurer to ask whether a measure was even necessary if it could be postponed. So there is enough need for discussion for the upcoming retreat sessions.
Grant from the country
As the treasurer explained about the income, there is a big question mark, especially behind the income from trade tax. On the basis of the figures provided by the state, he would have to assume an increase of 17.9 percent or 11.8 million euros in 2021 compared to around ten million euros in 2020, but, according to the treasurer: “I lack the imagination that this is the case entry.”
In 2020, the city will get away with business taxes with a black eye. Since the average of the past few years was set by the state at 11.5 million euros, Bückeburg but only earns 10.5 million euros Lower Saxony Transfer a good 800,000 euros to the city account. The disadvantage of this payment from the point of view of the city: It increases the district levy to be paid to the district.
15 million euros levies
The treasurer assumes that the key assignments will remain unchanged at around 2.5 million euros. The income tax shares are expected to increase from EUR 500,000 from EUR 8.4 to just under EUR 9 million. Overall, the chamberlain expects the city Bückeburg has to pay around 15 million euros in levies to the district and country.
