Heerlen establishes Center for Safety, Livability, Health & Law in Hoensbroek
The Board of Mayor and Aldermen has approved the purchase of the property Kouvenderstraat 97 in Hoensbroek. The building will house the Center Safety, Livability, Health & Law. The building is located right in the center of Hoensbroek and is spacious. It is among other things a place of collaboration for professionals from the neighborhood and region for safety, quality of life, Health and law. After renovation and preservation, it will open around May 2025.
At first we talked about the "Safety Center" for this place of cooperation, but we have changed this name. The new name does more justice to the diversity of partners participating. A total of 26 organizations or teams are associated with the Safety, Livability, Health & Law Center and use the location as a permanent or flexible workplace. Students from the Order and Safety mbo program, from the enforcement officer or police officer program, also walk directly with the professionals.
Mayor Roel Wever: "With the center we strengthen in Hoensbroek and the rest of Heerlen-North the presence of partners in the field of safety, livability, Health and law. I am very happy with that, especially for the residents of Hoensbroek. For example, there will be a police post in the building and the Health and Safety House Parkstad will move here. The center also offers participating partners and our Health and Safety professionals a unique location for collaboration. Unique also because residents can walk in here with their questions about safety, livability and perceived social problems."
Alderman Marco Peters: "The restructuring of Hoensbroek Center is top priority. Making the Center Safety, Livability, Health and Law is an important milestone in this approach. It meets what residents, entrepreneurs and visitors find important for a livable and vital center."
