Location decision for the new Munich airport

On August 5, 1969, the Bavarian Council of Ministers published the following resolution:

  1. The state government acknowledges and approves the results of the site investigations presented by the Ministerial Council for Economics and Transport, in which the construction of the Munich II airport at the Erding-Nord site is proposed.
  2. The responsible ministries of state are instructed to immediately take all measures necessary for the construction of the Munich II airport at the Erding-Nord location and to prepare the legally prescribed administrative procedures.

Following the location decision, the Bavarian Prime Minister, Dr. hc Alfons Goppel, with an appeal to the citizens of the districts of Erding and Freising, in which he pointed out that the airport company would quickly and unbureaucratically compensate everyone when they wanted to give up land, either in money or in land . In conclusion, the Bavarian Prime Minister emphasized that the state government expects the construction and operation of the new airport to bring about a considerable improvement in the economic structure of the surrounding area.

This made the political decision in favor of Munich Airport in Erding / Freising.
