Voluntary municipal service; application

  • Brief description

    In selected areas, you can apply for a voluntary benefit from local authorities.
  • Description

    Voluntary services are tasks that the local authority sets itself. It is free to decide whether and how to fulfill these tasks.

    For example, certain subsidies, grants, reductions or benefits can be offered as voluntary services. These can then be applied for.

    Examples:

    • Funding: e.g. cultural funding, cargo bike funding, funding for the purchase of old houses, funding for the construction of a rainwater cistern
    • Subsidy: e.g. for composters, reusable diapers, diaper bags, soundproof windows, energy consulting, projects with children and young people, repair and design of buildings, training costs for music lessons
    • Reduction: e.g. for residual waste garbage cans
    • Discount: e.g. for local public transport, a so-called "district pass"
