Grarald Stark (FPÖ) criticized the government parties’ understanding of democracy. He located “Fire on the roof” and only creative headings in the government agreement – but no tangible content. One of these headings is the “cool zones”. The number of 12 to 24 should be doubled by 2030. The first twelve “cool zones” were created in one year, the remaining need five times as long. The city, under the title “The Nice Toilette”, would also pay for it to open its toilet. What is usually available with friendly inquiries does not have to be subsidized with money, Stark criticized. Vienna also outsourced one million euros for watering all trees to a private company, so he was not surprised that the city had accumulated such a high debt mountain. The city would access the money of the Viennese.
Grin Mag. (FH) Susanne Haase (SPÖ) spoke to the Democratic capital of Vienna. In 2024, the city was voted European Democracy capital by an expert jury. Vienna has set up the petition committee since 2013; Founding the population and last year were more and more popular than ever in its history. She was looking forward to the task as chair of the Petitions Committee and thanked her predecessor Andrea Mautz. Petitions are “not a symbolic valve, but a real way for citizens to bring in their concerns,” said Haase. In terms of participation, she also referred to the Viennese climatic teams, where ideas for climate protection can be introduced in the Grätzl. In the meantime, the third round of climatic teams in three districts is working, said Haase. She paid tribute to the work of the MA 62 responsible for elections. Finally, Haase emphasized the Viennese water; It is “probably the most democratic in the world”: Viennese water can be enjoyed by everyone in public space; The water is part of general interest in the city and the infrastructure is continuously expanded and modernized.
GR Clemens Gudenus (FPÖ) spoke to the Vienna Forest. Forest and nature are connecting – probably beyond party borders. 19 percent of the municipal area are forest and a large part of the city’s forestry office would be managed. He called for the protection of the forest and pasture -friendly hunting. This is “real climate protection and not climate adhesive and other nonsense,” said Gudenus. He compared the construction of the high source line to the construction of the praise tunnel. In the penultimate century, the high source management was criticized as a major intervention in the landscape; The praise tunnel would also be combated with similar arguments. The praise tunnel is necessary for the relief for traffic and better air quality in Vienna.
GR Denis Sakic (SPÖ) emphasized his origin as a refugee child. He owes the “well -functioning city” that he could stand here in the local council. The symbol for the functioning city is the MA 48. Smart planning goes hand in hand with climate protection, for example at the new manure in Simmering. There have been optimized routes and many trips were “rationalized”. In Vienna there are also tens of thousands of dogs and cats at home; In the case of animal emergencies or problems, the animal welfare hotline or animal stroller or the dog teams are available outside in the districts. The MA 54, which ends the city’s logistics, is also responsible for the functioning of the city. The logistics department was also required in the past super election year to provide election cells and election gymnastics. The magistrate serves democracy, relying on cooperation and innovation, summarizing Sakic. In addition, good working conditions are needed for employees, the SPÖ council demanded: Vienna must “be the city where you can work well, live and grow old”.
Office Str Mag. Jürgen Czernohorszky (SPÖ) said that 2024 was “a year of records”. Hundreds of projects were completed last year or were brought up to rail until before the early election date in April 2025. The climate council particularly emphasized two services: Vienna managed to reduce the greenhouse gas emission by 31 percent and also reduce energy consumption per capita in Vienna by a third or 33.7 percent. He also referred to the solar power offensive, in which the city expanded an installed performance of 50 megawatt-peak to a total of almost 300 megawatt peak. With the ongoing green space offensive, a total of 500,000 square meters of green space and parks have been redesigned or redesigned, emphasized the department manager. Vienna got renaturation measures, including the redesign of the former Breitenlee freight station. In addition, 14 new “Wiener Wäldchen” were created throughout the city and 1,600 new public drinking fountains were put into operation. Czernohorszky also referred to the completion of the water tank on Schafberg for the water supply of Ottrakring, Hernals, Währing, Floridsdorf and the Donaustadt. In addition, the climate council emphasized the construction of the new Wiental Canal, as well as the updated waste management plan. All climate protection projects in the city would be tackled at the same time as “serenity and pace”, said Czernohorszky. In view of the manifest effects of climate change in the city, further measures for the climate should be continued. Vienna was the only federal state to have decided on a climate law and thus lifted climate protection into the legal rank, Czernohorszky stood out. Climate protection measures are the basis for a continued livable Vienna, the city council emphasized. For the coming years, intended for his sequels of proven programs, including the green space offensive 2.0, the solar power turbo or the continuation of the program “Raus from Gas”. Vienna also relies on the circular economy and waste prevention. The quality of life also means being heard, said Czernohorszky, who is also responsible for democracy-agreed. Vienna is currently a European Democratic capital: in the Democratic capital, the Viennese could of course have a say in their living environment and help shape the city. The office for participation was founded last year. Czernohorszky also thanked the city’s coats in the magistrate departments as a staff councilor. A well -positioned magistrate is “essential” to keep the city going and to guarantee the high quality of life and functioning services of services.
