As the municipality of Illnau-Effretikon informs, the city council has approved the neophyte communication concept for CHF 39,000.
Among other things, neophytes endanger biodiversity. They have been fought in Illnau-Effretikon with great effort for a long time. The success is partly achieved, but partly it is more like a Sisyphean task, because new neophytes are constantly spreading out of private green spaces – often out of ignorance.
There is therefore a great need to raise awareness among the population and to motivate them to make a contribution to combating neophytes. Therefore, recognizing and knowing about neophytes is a crucial basis for success.
In order to implement the communication concept “Neophytes and nature in the settlement area” in the years 2022 to 2025, the city council approved annual costs of 39,000 francs. From 2023 onwards, the budget is subject to approval by the city parliament. As a first measure, an exhibition about neophytes and native plants is to take place at the beginning of May on the Effretikon market square.
