That is the outcome of the council debate on Thursday evening. The land is purchased for three million euros and offers opportunities to be able to use the plot for housing after five years.

Parties before asylum seekers center

A majority of the city council is before the arrival of an asylum seekers’ center, only the largest opposition party Hart van Medemblik and VVD voted against. According to party leader Tjeu Berlin, the arrival of an AZC entails too many risks. “Care squeaks and squeaks and our safety is under pressure due to the shortage of police capacity.”

Councilor Tom Beuker (tomorrow!) Is different in it. “We have an eye for the worries that live with our residents, but we are confident that the municipality will adequately deal with this. So let’s put our best foot forward and give these people a chance and welcome.”

‘Care infarction is incorrect’

The fact that the arrival of an AZC in Medemblik would provide a care infarction refers Beuker to the realm of fables. “Let’s stay with the facts. The Central Agency for the Reception of Asylum Seekers (COA) takes care of healthcare staff, dentists and doctors.”
