Magnet In Shower Door

Audi Brussels engages the fourth gear

After scouring last year, the site of dying VW Forest must end its survival to the investment of infrastructure that recovers Audi to assemble Audi A3 Sportback (pending in 2009, the Audi A1 ). To mark this shift, the leaders of the German car company put the package

Show in the U.S. timed with German rigor, parade of luxury cars, presentation of video clips touting the brand with the four rings and photo shoots in the presence of former Prime Minister Guy Verhofstadt and new directors of the Brussels site, Audi has spared no efforts to make an impression: now called Forest VW Audi Brussels. The loss of 3,000 jobs is a bad memory to believe the German leaders that ensure the sustainability of the Brussels plant. " Initial situation was not simple" says Martin Winterkorn, the CEO of VW, came to Brussels with Ferdinand Piech, the big boss of the German group. "We met to find the best solution for Brussels in a constructive atmosphere. The result is respectable. With Audi, Brussels gets a strong partner. "
A partner who has registered 900,000 sales last year, which is a million this year and a half million in 2015. "Audi accumulates records for 12 years" ensures Rupert Stadler, CEO of Audi. "If, now, our brand has 22 models in the future we want to offer 40. To achieve these objectives, we rely on the skilled labor from Brussels. "
Forest, with its 2,200 workers who survived the restructuring last year, will produce 17,000 copies of the Audi A3 Sportback (in addition to the Golf and Polo) this year. The company guarantees until 2009 an annual order volume of 84,000 vehicles Audi and VW. In late 2009, the Audi A1 will land also the assembly line. The production rate is estimated at 100,000 cars per year.
unionists present at the baptism of Audi, explained their satisfaction with the resumption of Audi, but they still harbor concerns about working conditions that are far from being finalized. The new collective agreement mentions in particular a reduction in wage costs by 20% by 2009 in exchange for job guarantees until 2010 and the passage of 36 to 38 hours per week without extra pay. Discussions should be completed by end June

Skin Turns Green After Shaving

IXELLES: Place Flagey: proposed development area blocked

In the dispute over the future shape of the surface of Place Flagey, which opposes the common to the Regional Government and Transport Equipment (AED), Ixelles just succeed. The dispute was brought before the College of Urban Planning, which has blocked the permit issued by the Region to the EDA in January.

In the quarterly journal "Ixelles, our common" spring 2002, Ixellois could read on page 10: "The public debate on the redevelopment of the Place Flagey must go hand in hand with the site. Different scenarios will be put into debate with the aim of reaching a schematic diagram at the end of 2002 and lead to the issuance of a permit by the Brussels-Capital in late 2003 or early 2004 . What would make the redevelopment of the area of the square in 2004 and 2005.
May 2007, five years later, the promises are gone and the end of the tunnel is still far ... This site Pharaonic, which not only cost the tune of about 40 million euros (Under-estimated in 2002 to 25 million) and poisoned the lives of residents and traders for years, has not stopped exasperating. If the construction of storm basin, itself, has finally been completed and the Stib did the work to develop its new tram tracks, there are still finalizing the surface instead.
However, the proposed development area, submitted by the Administration and Equipment Travel (AED), and had obtained a building permit issued in January by the Region, has just suffered a setback: after the use of Ixelles cons this permit at the College of Urban Planning, this last comes to agree with the district.
Parking flood
Why all the fuss in a case dating from the early 90's and a host of experts and engineers would have had ample time to refine?
The conflict between the town and the region is really on the final landscaping of the site and more specifically on the future of underground parking that should settle in the service space, a space between the basin and the surface . This vacuum technique, desired and funded by the municipality, should accommodate parking for more than a hundred places. No worries so far, except that to avoid striking the storm basin in case of saturation, the valves were installed at the future of parking to be dumping the overflow of water. A situation that is quite exceptional in that basin, with approximately 32,000 m3, may contain heavy rain storms. But the risk of flooding exists.
However, a flood car, in the eyes of the mayor Willy Decourty unacceptable. Too much risk for cars and all electronic equipment that would be contained within this parking, but also for the safety, of course, motorists. Had to choose, then choose the preferred mayeur for a surface car park. But the town also has other objections against the proposed development area as the bad lighting of the place and insufficient strength of slabs of blue stone in weight truck gardeners and circus showmen who 's install in the future to Flagey.
the side of the Region, the Minister Evelyne Huytebroeck remember that zero risk does not exist and rather than launching costly new facilities, it would be preferable to establish a warning system in collaboration with the Royal Institute Meteorology in the future underground parking. In summary, such as MRI to predict storms provides 24-hour advance warning would be given to motorists to evacuate the car parking. Note that if the MRI has such capabilities, it is unfortunate that flooded Woluwe Uccle and Forest, last summer, have not received their warning.
Each party sticking to its positions, the dispute was brought by the municipality before the College of Urban Planning in March. A suspensive appeal that does not mind so much since, given the delays that had been achieved and the ongoing construction of the STIB, the surface works would anyway not to start. But, here, last month, left the Stib Flagey and now every day that passes adds to the delay in the construction company may charge to the Region (at taxpayer expense of course). "There will inevitably consequences," says Alain Lefebvre, Inspector General to the EDA. "The orders were placed and a halt to construction always implies the possibility for the contractor to be compensated."
The decision of the College of Urban Planning has just fallen: gain due to the municipality. The permit issued by the Region to the EDA is blocked. It now has the choice between wearing the case on the table ... or regional government to revise its draft (with all the implications and further delays that this entails).

Deniz Ates: the podium on the small screen

Recently, the Turkish community regularly appears negatively in some French media and blogs. Turkish youth is caricatured as necessarily revisionist, nationalist and poorly integrated in Brussels. While success stories abound. Evidenced Deniz Ates, here is the portrait.



What happens to participants in the Miss Belgium contest did not win first place? Deniz Ates, who was then Miss Schaerbeek Brussels in 2004, before finishing sixth in the Miss Belgium, started a very successful career in radio host and starts even in the TV

Deniz Ates (22 years) is embodied in a good mood. Always smiling, ready to joke, she hosted a morning show with brilliance on the waves of Turkic Pasa radio (90.9 FM). Become a small star in his home community, the girl captures attention in 2004 by winning the first title of Miss and Miss Schaerbeek Brussels. "I was absolutely not attracted to this type of competition but by the gifts" , smiled Deniz Ates. "I had just finished my school and I wanted to live an interesting experience. With the encouragement of a friend, I participated in the selection. I was the first surprise. " In the final contest of Miss Belgium, it reached sixth place. "In hindsight, I think I was not completely in the atmosphere of competition. It was more a game to my eyes. "
Sweeping proposals for modeling, she resumed her studies in public relations. "I do not see photo model or mannequin" , says Deniz Ates. "My greatest desire is to do journalism in print" . She also undertook a one-month internship at the newspaper La Derniere Heure. Then comes the radio. "The director of Radio Pasa had heard of me. He offered me a test. I had to do the voice of commercials. But auditors have had a surfeit of my voice as it would often repeatedly. Then I started in January 2005 a weekly Lyrics on demand. My biggest fear was mumbling in Turkish. At home, we always speak in French, except with my father. For cons, I was very comfortable at the microphone. " The chance came quickly: she landed a show every morning. "I prepared everything: horoscopes, news information, new people to the delight listeners. I wrote the same in advance feints I meant on the air. After one week I managed to de-stress and tell things more naturally. I speak often of unusual events occurring in my life. And then there is matter ". This passion for radio, Deniz Ates saw fully even if that job is voluntary. "The response from listeners is so great. This is my reward. "
Recently, she hosted and has also, once a month, a show "TR-roots can" on TV Brussel. " This lasts about fifteen minutes," continues Deniz Ates. " It portrays a Turk who has succeeded in life, a vox pop and presents an agenda for festive events. The program is Turkish and is subtitled in Dutch. "

REGION: Too many taxes kill jobs

With 800 r è tax regulations s, the Brussels municipalities compete to eng pper businesses and shops. Such red tape are enough to push the entrepreneurs are more patients to go into exile in the outskirts where expenses are much lower. Powerless nte facing municipal autonomy, the region provides some incentives for localities that continue to tax everything that moves, especially the job ...

To fill the boxes, the communal leaders do not lack originality, especially when it comes to tax businesses and shops. Advertising, brand, computer, power, nothing escapes the inexhaustible imagination taxatoire of Commons. However, the myriad of taxes not only hinders the economic development of businesses in Brussels, but worse, pushes into exile elsewhere to escape the tax burden on Brussels their results and investment capabilities.
The difference between the tax Zaventem and Evere, for example, is about 70%. However, striking so heavily businesses, we penalize the economy and therefore creating jobs. In one region, with about 21% unemployment, this "hard" on companies goes against common sense. "The economy is also the employment , asserts Willocx Olivier, CEO of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Brussels. "We can not generate the job without a thriving economy. There is no recovery through a subsidized economy. "

The Government of the Brussels Region recognizes the problem: " taxation differs from both by its high level and secondly by its diversity and regulatory instability" recognizes the minister-president, Charles Piqué . "Taxation is indeed in the Brussels region, largely communal spring.
While emphasizing communal responsibility, Charles Picqué not charging for all their leaders "It is difficult to ask significant efforts to municipalities, for example by suggesting to forgo some tax revenue. A possible decline in the tax burden on businesses will have to be recovered elsewhere. Hence the need for the region itself consents to the effort to compensate for the loss of revenue due to the elimination of certain taxes. "
Clearly, the region will "buy" the shortfall of Commons. By funding the loss of tax revenue, helping the region to maintain a common balance. Without having to defer the tax on other people!
Two taxes "stupid"
Specifically, the region creates a compensation fund for a fiscal budget of 15 million euros (605 million francs). Half of this sum will fund the shortfall of Commons would agree to delete two specific charges: that on computers and that the driving force. "Local taxation which weighs su r businesses will be reduced by 10% through this" , said Charles Piqué. "The government has opted taxes which represent a financial burden and significant administrative, and have effectively put a brake on economic dynamism and employment. "
Ten of the nineteen communes of Brussels possess a tax on computers, which range from 6.20 to 39 euros per workstation. It is already off the list of municipalities and Evere Uccle coming recently to remove them. Others will no doubt still. " It is a tax regressive," said Florence Kerchove, Director of Agoria, the federation of the technology industry. "Our companies are particularly affected by this tax. At the die development computer, it is an absurdity. "
Same story with the Chamber of Commerce. "This tax is incomprehensible e " said Olivier Willocx. "While other countries like the Netherlands, we encourage computerization, here, by contrast, is the tax. When we have to explain to a foreign company that their computers will be taxed, they look at us with eyes wide open like saucers. It is all the more incomprehensible that behind every computer there is an employee. So what is tax actually is the number of people employed. "
tax on motive force, which fluctuates between 12.5 and 18.6 eur bones per kilowatt, is it in eight communes of Brussels. "It is also absurd" says Olivier Willocx. "This fee includes everything revolves by a motor. Including all the appliances like the vacuum cleaner, coffee machine, the part of the garage door. To the fan for cooling the microprocessor of the computer! Good luck finding the number of watts. In practice, it is completely stupid. "
The ball is now in the camp of Commons. Those who play the game by removing one of the two taxes, or better, both, will be reimbursed 100% by the Region. "If they still do not delete these two taxes at this time we really go up to the plate" warns Agoria.
Snacking municipal autonomy
The other half of the budget (7.5 million) will be used to reward municipalities engaging way of rationalizing taxes. An additional incentive in the Region. " collaboration with the municipalities will be essential" said Charles Piqué. " The success of a plan to simplify and stabilize or even decline, the local tax burden is illusory if the municipalities are not aware themselves of the importance of their role in the matter. Thanks to this portion of the fund, municipalities will undertake to submit any new tax or tax increase that impact on economic development to a monitoring committee. They will also commit to participate in a working group to harmonize local taxation. "
The measure is particularly welcomed Oliver Willocx sees an original device developed by the Region to interfere in the politics of taxes of Commons. "It's very clever" , smiles the director of the Chamber of Commerce. "The Region has finally understood, after 18 years of existence, it was time to reduce its tax. Last year, 42% of companies in Brussels were lost, against 36% in Flanders. A whole series of factors explaining this situation, such as wages, high rents in the capital. But high taxes (including the one on the desks) also contribute to losses. How do you expect a company in difficulty committing more staff? Brussels is now in direct competition with the periphery. Companies are created in Brussels for the leave when they want to thrive and expand. They pay for 500 m2 of office space in the periphery, the same price as a rental of 250 m2 in Brussels. The municipalities would do well to reflect on their management. Today some localities at all costs prevent the installation of some companies pretexts crazy just to talk about them. This is the premium troublemaker. Companies which, however, hire staff and pay taxes in Brussels " .

Period High Soft Cervix

UCCLE: Money raised for the center from noon also funds other activities

Thanks to the association "Friends of municipal schools, which schools offer the Uccle daycare for children at noon. Parents pay 62 cents (25F) per day to benefit from this center. The association has collected last year, 270,000 euros, 212,000 euros to compensate supervisors. Problem: the balance, some 58,000 euros, is not refunded to parents but supports other activities

The councilor, Stéphane de Lobkowicz (Communal Union, opposition), has put his finger on a thorny issue. Schools ask parents a fee for children attending day care at noon. Up to this point, no worries. "The money is collected by schools on behalf of the association" Friends of municipal schools, "said Councillor . " This is not an association headed by the town: thus, we have no direct control. Of the 270,000 euros raised with parents, to monitor noon, an estimated 212,000 euros goes to pay staff. The rest is not diverted: we use that money to buy school supplies or pay snow classes for children. But is it normal to ask parents for money for surveillance at noon and use some of that money for other purposes, however laudable it may be? "
At the Alderman of Public Instruction explains that this association has existed since 1985. " It was set up following the sanitation laws of the time which forbade the Commons to intervene in everything that was subsidized by the state" says Joel House, the new Deputy Mayor of Education. "There was therefore a subsidized child care but the supervisor found himself alone facing 100 children. There was clearly a problem and nobody was satisfied. Finally, it was decided at that time to involve parents financially. Parents' associations are federated before creating "Friends of municipal schools." Represented in this association are parents, principals and members of the Service of Education. With this structure, the supervisors are paid by the municipality quarter and three quarters by parents. The advantage of the system: as it is a non-communal association, we do not pay social contributions for employees. Without this advantage, the monitoring would cost more, at the expense of parents. "
Currently, parents pay 62 cents (25 F) for child care by noon. From the third child, the service is free. "In other towns, it passes through the recipe rather than through a communal association" , says the deputy mayor. "It costs more for the parents of these municipalities.
Information taken in Ixelles, the day care (including soup) in schools rises by 38 cents
child ... The fact is that most of the problem is not there. The association conducted last year a net profit of about 58,000 euros (2.3 million). What happens to the money, collected from parents against payment of a service center? "15,000 euros fund the trip to snow classes of children from disadvantaged backgrounds, 5,000 euros for the purchase of books we offer each child of the third kindergarten and sixth secondary, 4,000 euros back to parents associations 'students, "answered the deputy mayor . "There are also 3,789 euros used for advertising schools. The rest is distributed in schools in proportion to the number of students. They use this money to buy equipment, games, etc. ".
There is no doubt that schools, who often complain about their lack of means, using this small windfall of money wisely. But is it normal for parents, and only those whose children attend child care, pay the bill? "They know" says the deputy mayor. "Through the parents' associations that are represented within the association."
Hard to believe that all parents, without exception, know that the money claimed by the center is in part used for other purposes. Would it not be easier (and healthier) to reduce the compensation of the parents of ten cents? The town, organizing power, could defray the services rendered by the association. "The finances of the municipality does not provide a margin of maneuver" , answered the deputy mayor, who sees this practice as a form of solidarity. Solidarity rather forced ...

ST JOSSE: Incidents between Turks and Kurds

The fire a Kurdish cafe, also used as a cultural center, Lidekerke the street in Saint-Josse in the night from Saturday to Sunday, has sparked excitement in the Kurdish community. It appears that molotov cocktails were thrown into the building. The ground floor was completely burned.
Suspecting the young Turks of setting fire to their local, fifty Kurds protested Sunday morning in the same street of Saint-Josse. Kurdish flags and displaying images in the image of Abdullah Ocalan, imprisoned leader (PKK as terrorist organization recognized by the EU), the demonstrators chanted slogans. In this small town of Brussels, it was enough to cause a crowd, this time, Turks (nearly 400) feeling the slogans of the Kurds as a provocation. To prevent confrontation, the police zone Schaerbeek, Evere and Saint-Josse used a water cannon and loaded on three occasions.
Clashes continued throughout the afternoon, before the police arrive to disperse groups. Several arrests have been processed through the police.

How To Make A Patrone Rita

UCCLE: Vanderkindere: a node for the tram lines

Following the saga of the trams instead Vanderkindere: tram 23 will continue to cross this famous crossroads, then he must be a terminus for the line. STIB says this will be temporary

Baiverlin Jacques, a retired civil engineer, observes from the balcony of his apartment in the Avenue Winston Churchill, traffic congestion instead Vanderkindere. Cartesian man, he said logically with the arrival of new trams, longer, STIB traffic at this intersection could turn into a nightmare. Small summary of the problem: Stib which now has reorganizes its new tram network. In future, therefore, to improve service, tram 23, which now connects to the Heysel Vanderkindere (reinforced by tram 24, a support line), must necessarily possess, according Stib a terminus at this intersection. The tram line 3, which runs from the North Station roundabout Churchill Vanderkindere also pass through the square. Starting next year, this line, in itself, will be strengthened by the arrival of new trams, T4000, which measure 42 meters long. Why
essential to a terminus Vanderkindere? Three other lines cross this intersection to date: Tram 91 between Stall and Louise, tram 92 between Fort Jaco and Schaerbeek Station and tram 90 between Rogier and Midi. This will disappear in the Stib plans and will be replaced by the new line 25 which will go to Rogier Boondael (no longer go to Uccle). Similarly, the 91 will be deleted.
short, remain at the crossroads Vanderkindere: trams 23 and 3 (terminal), 92 (unchanged) and the future line 4 (favorite number to 51) between Stall and Esplanade. By consolidating all these lines instead Vanderkindere, STIB creates a node junction to allow passengers to move in four directions to Stall, Louise, Albert (and Gare du Midi), and Buyl (and Montgomery). The concern of Jacques
Baiverlin is to see the trams, longer paralyze the traffic. However, it has a simple solution. "Too easy," smiled the engineer. "Could we not imagine that all trams, with the exception of 92 who come to the roundabout Vanderkindere, stop there, landing their passengers, then to turn around? One could imagine a signaling device for avoiding collisions between trams 92 and 4 on the Avenue Brugmann ". The idea is attractive in that traffic would not be embarrassed, but passengers should walk a bit to get to their next stop. The replica STIB, it is predictable: "We have schedules to meet. The driver stops at a terminal has a rest break. Moreover, the idea of marking is not realistic. For the tram 92 to continue its normal route without being bothered by tram 4, it should be ... a third way to circumvent the other two in the Avenue Brugmann, "says Mary Jean-Michel, responsible for the direction of network development .
The "90" disappears in April
Recently, Jacques Baiverlin just learned that the tram 23, whose terminal Vanderkindere was announced, finally continue its path beyond to the Gare du Midi. Here we lose altogether its Latin. "It is true that the tram 23 to continue his journey south," admits Jean-Michel Mary. "But this will be temporary. The proposed restructuring is done in phases. In April, line 25, replace the line 90, will visit Boondael. To compensate for this loss, line 23 will continue until noon. "

UCCLE: communal Cents on PPI: an illegal tax?

The recent municipal council voted Uccle its budget for 2007. It results in a bonus. The surcharges have been in real estate tax revised upwards. But a delicate question arises: the municipal tax to personal income tax, passed in 2007 but affecting 2006 revenue could be unlawful because retroactive ...

With a bonus of 790,000 euros, finance Uccle reach, unlike other municipalities, to stay in the positive. To achieve this balance, the College Uccle has still increased the surcharges on property tax, increased from 2300 to 2425. This increase represents an additional revenue of 3.5 million e (141 million). "Uccle is the third joint the least taxed in this matter after Woluwe-Saint-Pierre and Auderghem, "said the alderman of Finance, Boris Dillon. "But if we add in the balance of the many services we offer, we can objectively say that this increase is not due to any lack of rigor in the town, but the need for a balance."
If the withholding tax increases the tax on computer screens, however, that struck companies, was abolished. The revenue from this tax will soon be offset by a regional fund. St any man, the town was also difficult to perceive. How, indeed, control a number of desktop computers when they are "portable"?
the investment budget, amounting to 30 million euros (121 million), renovation of roads are planned, such as facilities and avenues of Wolvendael Carsoel. Other projects are also planned: the renovation of the hall in 1180, the redevelopment of Park Wolvendael, modernization of public lighting or securing housing.
retroactive tax
During the recent municipal council, elected officials also voted to renewal without modification of the tax on individuals at a rate of 6%. The tax on income from 2006. The councilor Stéphane de Lobkowicz (opposition) raised during the debate, a famous hare reporting a decision by the Court of Appeal of Mons. "The city of Lessines approved in February 2001, an additional increase in the PPI," said Stéphane de Lobkowicz. "The PPI has risen from 7 to 8%. This tax applies to income from 2000. A resident of the town brought an action for estimating the illegal tax retroactively. As a reminder, any tax has four basic principles: legality, equality, the annual increment and the principle of non-retroactivity. "In October 2004 the Court of Appeal of Mons, ruling on the merits, said the illegal tax," says Stéphane de Lobkowicz. "The complainant will be refunded. Clearly, the city should have voted to Lessen the tax before December 31, 2000 as it affects the revenue of 2000.
The situation is comparable to retail Uccle near the town that has not changed its rates. The town tax, passed in late 2007, she legally can hit 2006 revenue? The case of Lessines could she do jurisprudence? If yes, the Brussels municipalities, which have only recently voted the surcharges to the PPI, are not immune from action. Schaerbeek only passed the tax on time. Master cabinet Afschrift (Specialist in tax law), it was confirmed that the problem could well arise. But that jurisprudence is not acquired automatically in this case.

FOREST: The red box of Post ... replaced by the postman!

Post has cleaned up its services to its customers. For reasons of profitability, the famous red boxes, which were used to receive mail to send, are gradually disappearing. This is not without problems ... ask

Leon Rubin lives in a building at Forest Avenue Minerve. Like every time he wants to mail a letter, he went to the bottom of his building to slide his mail in the red box. But that day, stupor ... "The box had simply disappeared," said the resident. "This box should be there for 20 years at least. Previously, we even had a post office, but it was removed. Now is the turn of the box disappear. Buildings in the Magnanerie have 400 apartments. This equates to a street of 200 houses. The Most people who live here are elderly. Where should they go to deposit their letters? This box served not only our building but the whole neighborhood. " Rabies
stomach, Leon Rubin has resigned, to post his letter to go to the post office on the Place Saint-Denis (the other being in the Forest Altitude Cent). Add to that the recent closure of the antenna of the position of the Rue Pierre Decoster, we feel the frustration in the face of mounting Forestoise.
"Since then I have learned that there were a few red boxes within a radius of 400 meters," says Leon Rubin. "What I do not understand is that the Post Office van comes regularly to "throw" bags of mail in the building entrances, on condition factor in the open and distribute the boxes. When the van goes to "throw" bags, the driver could not harvest it in the mail box located 10 meters from the entrance to a building, without disrupting the timing of an artificial computer? ".
reply Post: "The driver is there for the overload has an established order which must be respected. It's not his mission to pick up mail. Why remove these red boxes so practical? "For reasons of profitability," says the postal service. "It is very expensive for a small amount of volume. But we offer another service to our customers: they offer a small placard. People can drop it on their windows for those who inhabit the ground floor or on their mailbox, so it is visible to the factor. When it sees this poster, it sounds to the person who shall give them the letter to be sent. It may also ask for stamps (delivered by the postman the next day) or submit a transfer. It is totally free and better than a box Letter. "

IXELLES: The walls of the Chaussée d'Ixelles covered

With the explosion of graffiti in Buyl Avenue, was thought to have reached the pinnacle of dirt, but the floor of Ixelles, especially between Place Flagey and Cocq, is even more affected by this scourge. Almost no house was spared ...

winter has damaged homes in the Chaussée d'Ixelles. The taggers have worked hard on the facades of houses, the shutters of shops and even street furniture. A shopkeeper regrets helplessly: "What do you do? We leaves our shop in the evening. And the next day we found our window covered with tags. They do that night. This gives a bad image of the neighborhood. "
We see everything from so-called artistic colorful drawings, and graffiti on some walls, some "on" have even had fun tagging "messages" like: "People no longer believe in Santa Claus, they vote" . Pending such sentence, oh and participatory citizenship, pollutes the facade of a house on the corner of the Chaussée d'Ixelles. Serving Clean
there an anti-tags that removes the dirt from the free wall at the owner's request. An agreement is first signed between the municipality (the College) and the owner. Still, the waiting list is too long. To simplify the process, the new deputy mayor of the Clean, Delphine Bourgeois asked that the signing of this agreement takes place after the détaguage. "For now, the waiting period is four weeks between the request of the owner and the field work," says town councilor. "Also because the agreement must be signed at the College. Henceforth, we will avoid this step and win two weeks. The agreement will be signed by the College after détaguage. Secondly, we will train more staff and increase the anti-tag team. Finally, it is imperative to train a team of sworn officers who will punish the culprits in terms of cleanliness. " Also we mention that the product used for cleaning walls would be sensitive to cold. In other words, no anti-tag service when it's minus 8 degrees outside.

IXELLES tags: parking under or on Place Flagey?


Flagey While the site is still far from complete, a new controversy has arisen about whether the car would come in or the place. Everyone, including municipal authorities prefer underground parking. But now: it is flood ...

The storm basin of the Place Flagey, functional since late June, will be completed within two months after the installation of all equipment. Will remain the development of the area instead. But for now, uncertainty exists about the future of the plenum (space just above the slab covering the storm basin) should house a parking garage with 186 spaces. Everything seems
questioned since the announcement by the Region that the vacuum technique could be flooded in times of very heavy rains. Indeed, the valves will connect the basin to the car park to release the excess water from the basin. Hence the risk of flooding. The mayor Willy Decourty first question because the parking will be funded and managed by the county, said they could not take such a risk to the safety of motorists. Besides the potential damage to vehicles parked in this future car. Rather than incur this risk, he prefers outright development of surface parking spaces. The Brussels Region, who manages the place Flagey, refused.
Years of study to arrive at this impasse
background to this controversy. When the municipality and the Region have decided late 90's, construction of detention pond at the Place Flagey, to prevent flooding in Gray Street, it was not originally planned to develop a technical vacuum . At the request of the county, the plans were modified to create this space, besides the expense of Ixelles. The purpose for this was obviously to be expected, later, an underground parking. She took over both the financing and the transformation of the empty parking technique. An agreement signed at the time attest.
"But everyone involved knew from the outset that this vacuum technique would be flooded," says Jean-Pol Rosiere, engineering director in the administration of water in the Region. Why, when we created a pool of 33,000 m3, there exists the risk of flooding? "There are two reasons," replied the engineer. "It is important to ensure communication between the pool and vacuum technology through valves (actually vents). First, if the storm basin, following heavy rains, had to fill, the water mass exert enormous pressure on the slab covering the basin. This slab is damaged. It would obviously these are exceptional rainfall of about 60 millimeters per hour (compared to a year, the average is 830 mm). The kind of rain that does not happen every ten years but maybe every 15 or 20 years. Maybe the storm basin of Flagey will never be filled completely, but obviously in this kind of disaster, there is no absolute certainty or zero risk. Second reason for the existence of valves. Parking is obviously related to the surface via a ramp. Imagine that event of heavy rains, surface drains clogging with leaves, paper, etc.. The water will rush in through the parking ramp. Again to avoid a mass of heavy water on the slab, it is necessary to evacuate this time in the storm basin. So it goes both ways. "
In the Region when the municipality decided to support the construction of his car, she was aware of these "technicalities". "But what is good for this car is also for any other underground infrastructure," said Jean-Pol Rosière. "Recently, Metro has Roodebeek been flooded. This may also occur elsewhere. I think the best solution would be to prohibit access to the parking days of risk ".
Still, the town had proposed an alternative to the famous valves: drain excess water not to the parking lot but to the ponds of Ixelles. "On paper it sounds perfect," replied the engineer. "One could imagine a weir height of the Avenue of the Golden Spurs. But do we agree to send wastewater to a site listed? Moreover, it would not be a panacea. "
short, after spending about 40 million euros (1.6 billion francs) in the construction of a stormwater detention pond (originally estimated at 25 million euros), and several years of study, common area and are faced with a dilemma: to keep or abandon the The idea of underground parking. The mayor Willy Decourty still prefer reintroduce the surface parking at the Place Flagey. The region, which depends on the development of surface marks his refusal.
