In Kehl, the Stadtverwaltung is involved in the aftermath of a large fire that destroyed a disco. The focus is on the ongoing investigation into the cause of the fire, which is complicated by the extensive damage to the building. The area is currently under investigation. In Wiesbaden, the Stadtverwaltung is being challenged by a taxi company regarding the provision of temporary taxi stands during construction.
