TERVUREN — Town council will not take place on Thursday 27 February due to a failure to send the official email invitation on time. The main agenda item was the appointment of some 60 board positions. “The secretariat had no way of knowing that the agenda email had not been received,” said mayor Thomas Geyns, blaming Tervuren Unie+Volt for refusing to agree to “a simple IT fix.” 🇬🇧 https://tervuren.bravenews.eu/no-email-no-tervuren-town-council 🇳🇱 https://tervuren.bravenews.eu/geen-e-mail-geen-gemeenteraad-in-tervuren 🇫🇷 https://tervuren.bravenews.eu/pas-de-mail-pas-de-conseil-communal-a-tervuren 🇩🇪 https://tervuren.bravenews.eu/kein-e-mail-kein-gemeinderat-in-tervuren

Town council turned briefly to language policy at a recent meeting. This followed a complaint regarding a menu presented in Dutch, but also with separate French and English versions. The issue sparked a discussion on maintaining the town’s Dutch-speaking identity while embracing multilingualism.

https://tervuren.bravenews.eu/tervuren-traffic-troubles-what-you-need-to-know/ A tough week ahead for commuters... On Monday, February 10, and Tuesday, February 11, the Duisburgsesteenweg is closed near the luxury Panquin apartments. That’s due to ongoing utility works. And from February 10 to March 11, the town hall has also approved utility works on Vestenstraat, accompanied by one-way traffic restrictions. And tram 44 commuters: don't forget Brussels public transport workers join a national strike on Thursday, February 13.

Tervuren's town council has rejected a proposal to have the commune recognized as 'child-friendly'. The label, designed to encourage policies that promote a child-friendly environment, failed to gain majority support. According to the responsible alderwoman, achieving the label would require excessive time, resources, and manpower.

TERVUREN – Mayor Thomas Geyns ordered removal of the popular bike parking in front of the smaller Carrefour. The move creates two extra car parking spots on the busy Hoornzeelstraat. Convenience car parking is crucial for local business, the Flemish liberal mayor says. This really feels like a punch in the stomach, say local cyclists.
