Local Election 2021: What is the CDU party planning for Frankfurt?

Interview with CDU parliamentary group chairman Dr. Nils Kößler

The city of Frankfurt has been a magnet for tens of thousands of new residents for years. In the last 10 years alone, the population has grown by more than 100,000, which corresponds to an increase of around 16 percent.

Thousands of new apartments are built in the city every year. Too few and the wrong ones, say some real estate experts. The SKYLINE ATLAS is therefore conducting an interview with the CDU parliamentary group leader of the Frankfurt City Hall in the run-up to the Hessian municipal elections on March 14, 2021. We want to know from him what the CDU conservative party is planning specifically for Frankfurt, how the precarious housing shortage is to be resolved and what his forecasts are for our city.

Readers of SKYLINE ATLAS can suggest interview questions on topics that you may have always been interested in or that are specific to a topic. In the broadest sense, however, the questions should have something to do with urban developments in Frankfurt.

The interview with Dr. Nils Kößler will be held in September 2020.

Please fill in your questions in the following form. Entering your name and email is optional and will not be mentioned in the published interview. We reserve the right to rephrase questions or to leave them out due to the quantity. The closing date for entries is September 12, 2020.

Unfortunately, the phase for submitting questions has passed. Thank you very much for the active participation! The interview will take place soon.
