Security in Vogelsberg: District administrator calls for more measures against crime

On November 10, 2025, a captivating autumn discussion took place in the Vogelsbergkreis district with the district administrator Dr. Jens Mischak (CDU). In this interview, he spoke about important issues affecting the region, including security, training rescuers, environmental protection, as well as wind power development and water supply in times of drought.

Mischak used the opportunity to emphasize the need to strengthen civilian protection. However, over the last 30 years there has been a reduction in resources in this area, which urgently needs to be revised. Security in the Vogelsberg district was also discussed; He described the district as relatively safe, but acknowledged that the region faces similar challenges to large cities such as Frankfurt, especially with regard to drug offenses as well as weapons and extremism crimes. “We are not the island of the fortunate,” Mischak noted, while highlighting the growing problems that cannot be ignored.

Dealing with nature and animals

Another concern of the district administrator was climate protection. Acceptance of renewable energies, especially wind power, has increased among the population. There was also a lively discussion about the water supply in the Rhine-Main area, which poses major challenges during dry periods. The topic of wolves is also current in the region. Mischak criticized the existing measures to regulate it as “a drop in the ocean” and called for more scope for action, including to hunt wolves.

The invitation to the event pleased the mayor and citizens who shared concerns about building schools, health care, rural areas and tourism with Dr. Mishak could discuss. A video of the entire conversation is also available, in which all the topics raised are discussed in detail.

In this digital age, isn't there also a desire to learn more about technical challenges? An example of this is troubleshooting Windows, which was not the focus of this conversation but is still of interest to many. You can find solutions and tips for optimizing the Windows system on the Microsoft website, for example, where troubleshooting steps are described in detail. This includes, among other things, restoring the folder standards in Windows Explorer, which is a valuable help, especially for inexperienced users. One click on it and you have restored what is often lost.

Elsewhere, the “Monkey-Banana Problem” is discussed in an exciting prologue project. This is about a monkey who has to carry out a specific sequence of actions in order to reach a banana. An interesting example of logical thinking and problem-solving strategies that could be of importance to both students and technology enthusiasts.

The Vogelsbergkreis not only faces challenges, but also offers solutions and exciting discussions that make life in the region worth living. It remains to be seen what further measures and ideas will emerge from such discussions to further improve safety and quality of life.
