In addition, Mayor Markus Ibert had announced “no further nasty surprises” in an interview with the LZ a few days ago. In fact, the costs for the major Lahr event in 2018 amount to 59.7 million euros, as can be seen in the final report. A value that is just below that which the city had forecast about a year ago (61 million euros). The LGS received funding of 11.3 million euros, which reduced the city’s own contribution to 48.4 million euros. On top of that, there are costs for ongoing operations from 2014 to 2018, which are estimated at 7.5 million euros, so that in the end there are 55.9 million euros.
In the meantime, there are still a few question marks about the LGS, for example with the leaky lake. An evidence preservation process has been running since May 2019 to clarify who is responsible for the leak. According to the expert, a result should actually be available in August. But it doesn’t, as the city is now announcing. Exit still open.
