Black deputy mayor sees a "watermelon" government on the 100-day anniversary. City boss Bernhard Auinger, on the other hand, is proud of the increased pace and the new working atmosphere, including between politics and administration.

The new city government will have been in office for exactly 100 days on Thursday. On Tuesday, the members took stock for the first time. It quickly became clear that the SPÖ, KPÖ Plus and Bürgerliste are close on many issues and seem to have a good rapport with each other. The term "eye to eye" was often used by those present. Only one person mocked the fact that he was not on the same level: Deputy Mayor Florian Kreibich (ÖVP). The People's Party, which is in government due to the proportional representation system, did not sign the working agreement.

On Tuesday, Kreibich also coined the term "watermelon government": a little green, a lot of red and a few black seeds. For him, many measures are a payback to the former ÖVP-led government. The remaining members of the government see the situation as a new departure. "We are stepping up the pace," says Mayor Bernhard Auinger (SPÖ). The government wants to step up the pace, especially when it comes to housing construction. A directive initiated by Auinger, Deputy Mayor Kay-Michael Dankl (KPÖ) and City Councillor Anna Schiester (Citizens' List) will completely reorganize rezoning regulations in future. For example, 80 percent of new buildings must be subsidized rental apartments.

Dankl also wants to bring existing apartments back onto the market. A package to combat vacancies is to be presented in the fall. Schiester also wants to present many projects in the fall.

Open question of costs for the S-Link upsets city boss
A decision on the S-Link will also be made in three months' time. Auinger - known to be an opponent of the project - clearly criticized the state government on Tuesday. "There is still no cost cap for the city and negotiations will only take place again after the public consultation," said the city boss. The citizens of Salzburg would therefore not know how much the project would ultimately cost the state capital before the vote.
