Finance Committee meeting: Future opportunities for Neutraubling households!

A public meeting of the Administrative and Finance Committee will take place on November 25, 2025 at 6:30 p.m. in the meeting room of the town hall at Pommernstrasse 19 South (2nd floor). The agenda includes several important items that are important for the city's financial management. The first point deals with the opening of the meeting as well as the quorum and the agenda.

Another central topic is the approval of the last public minutes of the meeting on March 6, 2025. In the further course of the meeting, the preliminary discussion on the supplementary budget for 2025 is on the agenda, followed by the annual report on the 2024 annual financial statements in accordance with Section 81 (4) KommHV. Extensive discussions are also underway for the 2024 annual financial statements of the church institutions, especially the St. Gunther and St. Michael kindergartens.

Financial framework conditions

The municipalities are financed primarily through their own tax revenues, such as property tax and trade tax. Additional revenue comes from shares of community taxes, including income tax and sales tax. This financial basis is crucial to making city budgets sustainable. Municipal financial equalization plays an important role in ensuring adequate municipal financial resources. This is particularly clear in connection with the growing tasks of municipalities, which have increased significantly in recent years, for example in the areas of social security, childcare, education and local public transport.

Sufficient financial resources are required in order to fulfill the large number of upcoming tasks. The connectivity rules ensure counter-financing of new or changed tasks and are therefore a decisive factor for the financial stability of municipalities. Despite these regulations, cities in North Rhine-Westphalia have lived on substance for years, which leads to a significant need to catch up on investments. Necessary investments include measures for climate protection, adaptation to climate change and the transport and energy transition.

Outlook for the meeting

The committee meeting will also discuss other items under the “Other” agenda item as well as information from the administration on current topics. The Finance Committee is tasked with overseeing the city's financial policy and setting the course for sustainable urban development. The upcoming questions and inquiries will also find space in the discussions in order to adequately address the financial challenges.

This meeting represents an important step in the city's further financial planning and is of interest to all citizens who would like to deal with future developments in Neutraubling. The city administration also encourages anyone interested to take part in the meeting and to actively participate in local financial policy.
