Dispute over heating transition and markets: Potsdam meeting crucial today!
On November 5, 2025, the Potsdam city council will meet in the penultimate meeting of the year, which will put numerous important topics on the agenda. Particular attention is being paid to the heating transition, which is already controversial and poses major challenges for city councilors. Mayor Noosha Aubel, who is acting in her new office for the first time, will chair the meeting in the Havelsaal of the IHK, which begins at 3 p.m. As the MAZ reports, citizens are informed live about the important decisions and debates.
A central topic of the meeting is the major inquiry about the heat transition in Potsdam. The discussion on this brings to light different opinions and could have far-reaching effects on the city. The weekly market at Bassinplatz is also on the agenda, which will make way for the Christmas market for eight weeks. This decision is met with incomprehension by both retailers and customers, who do not want to miss out on the popular weekly market.
Dispute over Sunday flea markets and space requirements for schools
Another hotly debated topic is the dispute over Sunday flea markets, which were banned by the city. Many residents and visitors are skeptical about this ban and are calling for a reassessment. The urgent need for a permanent location for the Dalton High School, which needs a new building, is also addressed. These issues underscore the growing pressure on the city to find solutions to emerging challenges.
The upcoming session promises to be exciting. A wide range of topics and civic interests will be put on the agenda and will certainly provide lively discussions. The decision-makers are faced with the task of not only meeting current requirements, but also planning ahead in order to make Potsdam future-proof. The exchange between the city administration and citizens is essential in order to find viable solutions.
Parallel to the political developments in Potsdam, there is also movement on the financial market. While after-hours trading is not available for Microsoft Corporation (MSFT) in the US, investors have different options for trading in pre-market and after-hours. These trading hours are known to cause faster price fluctuations and investors are advised to use limit orders to minimize risks. These aspects of financial markets are also relevant to our local economy and could be linked to city council discussions, particularly when it comes to financial support for local businesses.
