Citizens´ Initiative – Preserve Housing in Erlangen

The citizens’ petition “”Wohnraum erhalten” (“Preserve housing”) is campaigning for the preservation of housing and residential homes around the University Hospital in Erlangen’s city center, which are at risk due to the construction plans of the University Hospital and the city and are to be converted into offices. With a signature everyone can make his mark for affordable housing and against the destruction of lliving space in Erlangen. Erlangen needs more living space to counter the housing shortage among students.
All EU citizens who are of legal age and reside in Erlangen may sign the petition.
All collection points and further information can be found at https://wohnraum-erhalten.de/
Get active and join us on March 26th in Sophienstr. 94
