Despite the GR resolution: irritations about the lecture in the Dogana, approval of the WK demand
“Combination of underground bus car park and sports field remains the best solution”, which is why the “For Innsbruck” list gave great approval for the WK’s demands for a central bus parking lot. Daniele Ganser’s lecture caused irritation. Mayor Georg Willi gives the option of not being available at the congress. GR Gerald Depaoli sees this as a ban on performing.
INNSBRUCK. In the course of the New Year’s reception of the Innsbruck Chamber of Commerce, district chairman Franz Jirka again emphasized the importance of the topic “central bus parking lot” in his speech. “Much to the delight of Für Innsbruck, because this facility, which is so important for tourism and the many commercial and catering establishments in the old town, was in danger of being completely forgotten, except for Für Innsbruck,” says a broadcast.
“I am very grateful to Chairman Franz Jirka that he is bringing up the subject of bus parking again, because a central bus parking lot is simply important. For us, the combination of underground bus parking and sports field next to the MCI is and remains the best and, above all, feasible solution. Still the MCI will not be built, nor is anything possible,” said the committee chairman for urban development, GR Lucas Krackl.

Soil-saving and climate-friendly construction
“The underground bus garage and sports field above it are being built in a resource-saving and climate-friendly manner, as is also required by private property developers, and investing in the future of city tourism. The above-ground closure with a sports field also makes a contribution to the climate,” says Krackl.
“Neither for the underground car park including the sports field at the MCI nor for the alternative pursued by Mayor Willi, including the concreting of parts of the Hofgarten, is there a reliable cost estimate based on concrete plans. I look forward to the strong voices of support from the chamber that we get ahead together for the economy here,” concludes Krackl.

No dogana for lecture
GR Angie Eberl and GR Markus devaluation submitted an application for a resolution in November 2013. The resulting resolution was decided in June 2014 with 2 dissenting votes.
“Resolution of the Innsbruck municipal council on events in public spaces, non-renting to right-wing extremist or racist associations, organizations and movements as well as left-wing extremist and/or terrorist associations, organizations and movements: The members of the municipal council distance themselves from right-wing extremist, left-wing extremist, racist, terrorist and sexist ideas Buildings or parts of buildings owned or owned by the City of Innsbruck or a company in which the City of Innsbruck has a stake should not be made available, either for a fee or free of charge, to organisations, associations or movements that represent/spread such ideas or are not involved in distancing yourself appropriately.”
With an entrance fee of 40 euros, a 90-minute lecture by Daniel Ganser planned. Daniele Ganser’s lectures are controversial. That Documentation archive of the Austrian resistance (DÖW) abstains extensively from the person Ganser. mayor George Willy has instructed the Managing Director of Congress und Messe Innsbruck (CMI) GmbH, Christian Mayerhofer, not to allow the event to take place. Willi argued that he cannot allow Ganser to spread his theses in an event center “organized with public funds”. Especially since both the said congress center and the trade fair were “important hubs” during the corona pandemic. Vaccinations and tests would have taken place here.

Depaoli sees performance ban
GR Gerald Depaoli in a broadcast: “The Fair Innsbruck calls on Mayor Georg Willi to ban the performance of ‘Dr. Ganser’ immediately to be lifted until a statement from the Tyrolean regional authority is available, which justifies a corresponding ban on performing.” According to Depaoli, Willi has neither asked the state police headquarters nor the Office for the Protection of the Constitution for an objective statement, and for purely ideological reasons Ganser was banned from appearing in the congress center after alleged consultation discussed with other owner representatives.
“Whether this 600 people bought a ticket for this,” Depaoli continues in this broadcast.
Das Gerechte Innsbruck calls on Mayor Georg Willi in the broadcast to ban the performance of ‘Dr. Ganser’ to be lifted immediately until there is a statement from the Tyrolean regional authority, which justifies a corresponding ban on performing,” says GR Gerald Depaoli, who wants to know from Georg Willi who, in the event of a possible claim for damages by Ganser, must assume the costs or, if applicable, the litigation risk .
