The VR-bank oberfranken mitte’s annual donation to the schools in the kronach area, where it is possible to obtain a higher degree than the quali, has already become a tradition.

Division director hans-jurgen mohrle was pleased to be able to support a wide variety of measures and purchases at schools again this year. "We owe the available funds to our loyal "profit savers", mohrle was quoted as handing over the donation checks to the representatives of the nine recipient schools together with the heads of the business units thomas kolb (kronach main office), rene borke (pressig) and frank wicklein (steinbach/wald). Profit savings is a clever combination of savings and lottery. Four euros are saved from the five-euro monthly lottery ticket. One euro is used for the raffle, where there are great prizes to be won. Just a short time ago, a winner from the pressig branch was able to enjoy a main prize of 10,000 euros. 25 cents of every ticket is used to support charitable and benevolent institutions, facilities and associations – in keeping with the cooperative spirit of the founder of the raiffeisengenossenschaft, friedrich wilhelm raiffeisen. The cooperative concept is also what distinguishes his bank from other credit institutions. Unlike other banks, the VR bank pays a dividend to its customers. In this context, mohrle pointed out that anyone can become a member of the VR bank.

Unanimity prevailed at the most recent meeting of the market town council. The council members approved several building applications and had no objections to two of bad kissingen’s projects. It was all about the urban land use planning. "That was a "land reclassification, gerhard zeller, the municipality’s chief executive officer, told this editorial office. A mixed-use area in bad kissingen is now to be allocated to the public school sector. "This does not affect the needs of the market." the committee therefore raised no objections. The same applied to the inclusion of the completed trench construction work between garitz and wittershausen in the land use plan. The building application of the company wolf-haus in gefall was also approved by the council. "A lot has been invested there in the past few years. Now the parking lots are to be better organized", according to zeller. For this, an intervention in the land is necessary. "That’s a lot of earthmoving." the two other building applications also met with a positive response. "In case a residential building is to be renovated. We as a municipality are naturally pleased", zeller commented on one of the proposals. The project of a builder in wollbach was also approved. "But: as a municipality, we also point out that a rough construction site is approaching." this has consequences for the access to the building site. Because the upcoming trench and civil engineering works make a full closure of the brunnengasse indispensable.
