The neighborhood folks ain't too thrilled either. Maurer (SPD) welcomes the constructive discussions taking place as the city department evaluates the proposed relocation. The Interior Senator in the loop acknowledges that finding appropriate locations can be a tough nut to crack and that there should be suitable substitution offers within the city.
According to the city department, no building application for a methadone dispensing point has been submitted yet, although papers have been announced. Following preliminary checks, such an operation in a mixed-use zone is permissible in principle as it offers healthcare services. However, they will inspect if neighboring properties might be substantially impacted, and protection measures will be taken if necessary.
The Ameos Group has been hunting high and low for a suitable relocation spot for their methadone dispensing point for quite some time. At the moment, it's holed up in a container in Walle. The group has confirmed they're on the move, scouring every nook and cranny of Bremen city for an ideal location. They're in cahoots with the authorities.
Local concerns about such facilities often swirl around increased crime, proximity to residences, and potential effects on businesses. To get the latest scoop on any ongoing proposals or plans, I'd recommend hitting up local news outlets or the relevant municipal authorities in Bremen. They'll be the ones in the know.
