Frankfurt / Main (dpa / lhe) - Despite financial losses for the city due to the Corona crisis, the Lord Mayor of Frankfurt Peter Feldmann (SPD) wants to hold on to discounts such as free swimming pool entry for children and young people.
«In this crisis we have to support children and young people and we have to support families.
Such cuts are not even necessary with a view to the budget, ”said Feldmann of the“ Frankfurter Rundschau ”(“ FR ”, Saturday).
"In Frankfurt they know how to make money, and we will do that when everyone is finally vaccinated."
In Frankfurt, children and adolescents under the age of 15 have been allowed free of charge in outdoor pools and swimming pools since February 2019, which are currently closed due to the pandemic.
Childcare in the daycare centers is now also free of charge.
Feldmann also announced in the interview that he would support the Frankfurt restaurateurs with the permits for outdoor catering.
“The restaurateurs must be able to use the space in front of their door quickly and easily.
Last year, with the many tables and chairs in front of the cafes outside, Frankfurt looked like we know and love it from southern France.
I want to allow that again. "
