Board Activities

On behalf of the members the board is the point of contact for the municipality, such as the aldermen, counsel members of the urban space committee (Commissie Ruimte), civil servants of the urban planning department (Dienst Stedelijke Ontwikkeling) and various officials of the police.

There are regular meetings with the management of Vroondaal Development (Vroondaal Ontwikkeling). There we discus all ongoing issues and the further development of Vroondaal Hofstedepark, such as proposed changes to the plan, the sale of plots, the quality of the neighbourhood and improvements to the infrastructure. The co-ownership of property partitions and ground leases, and the abolishment of it has also been discussed. When necessary, there is consultation with the Municipal Counsel to influence decisions.

The board meets regularly for internal consultation. In addition, some members also work on one of the working committees. The board maintains (e-mail) contact with the members about the shared concerns about liveability, safety and maintenance of the public space.
