Moers Christmas Greetings from Mayor Julia Zupancic

Moers Mayor Julia Zupancic has outlined key priorities for the city in 2026. Tight budgets and ongoing projects will shape the year ahead, with a focus on infrastructure, public services, and urban development. The mayor also extended warm holiday wishes to residents as the new year approaches.

In 2023, Moers began reviewing its fire station network to modernise facilities and cut response times. Plans included potential relocations or new builds for stations in Moers-Mitte and Neukirchen, though no final decisions were made. Political approval and funding remained pending. By 2026, Zupancic aims to finalise these plans and provide clear direction on the fire service’s future structure.

Urban redevelopment will remain a central theme. The city centre’s transformation is set to continue, with particular attention on the area between the former tax office and the Mühlenstraße car park. The mayor also intends to refine workflows on construction sites, collaborating with Enni to streamline progress. On public services, Zupancic is designing a new system for citizen office hours. The goal is to make appointments more accessible and user-friendly for residents. Before closing the year, the mayor shared a message of goodwill. She wished Moers’ residents a peaceful Christmas, relaxing holidays, and a positive start to 2026.

The coming year will see Moers tackle financial constraints while advancing major projects. Decisions on fire station upgrades, city centre improvements, and streamlined public services are expected to take shape. The mayor’s plans hinge on securing necessary approvals and maintaining cooperation with local partners.
