LIVELY COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION
FSF SPORTS AND LEISURE CENTRE AT THE KALVARI IN FLIESS
Within walking distance of the school and the village centre, the local authority in Fliess has been building a new sports and leisure centre with tournament and training pitches, spectator stands, swimming, athletics, tennis and trend sports facilities and a sizeable clubhouse for the local football club. For the community of just under 3,000 inhabitants, this is a landmark project, made possible by 15,000 hours of voluntary work. The starting point was the sports ground that the municipality has been operating in Fliesserau since 1964 and which is used by the football club with all its teams. This sports ground was located eight kilometres away from the village centre in the valley and for this reason could not be used by either the new middle school or the primary school. The aim was to build a sports and leisure facility close to the educa-
tional facilities as an important measure to revitalise the village centre and make it more compact. With an „on-site“ workshop, a broad citizen participation process and a participatory competition, an exemplary project was implemented in close cooperation between the local authority, the population and planners. sb 2/2022
