Before the town’s treasurer had presented his budget speech at the council meeting last week, the FDP asked whether, in addition to the child-care costs, it was planned to raise any other charges in 2013?

The answer was yes.

It is planned to raise the annual fee to use the town’s library will from €10 to €15, generating around €11,000 extra income.

The cost of a stand at the monthly flea market in the Adenauerallee or Nassauer Straße will also rise from €15 to €17.50.
