Koblenz faces tax increases: Mayor warns of cuts!

Koblenz, Deutschland - The Koblenzers have to adjust to a financial fiasco! Mayor David Langner (SPD) informed the city council on Wednesday that the commercial and property taxes will increase. There are also numerous projects on the brink - some are even completely painted. The reason? A catastrophic economic situation forces the city to a drastic austerity course that is even stricter than in previous years.

The administration's draft budget will be vote in the last meeting of the year in mid -December. But the city council members have little choice than agreeing to the proposals. The financial incisions are inevitable and citizens have to get prepared for an uncomfortable future. Further details about this explosive situation are to be found here .
