Stad Peer

What Stad Peer does

Stad Peer is the municipal government (stad/gemeente) of Peer, a commune located in the province of Limburg, Belgium. It delivers the full spectrum of local public services to its residents: administrative document processing (identiteitskaart, rijbewijs, attesten, omgevingsvergunningen), waste management via Recyclagepark Peer, public infrastructure maintenance (roads, cycle paths, sportzone), cultural programming through the BICC (Bibliotheek en Cultuurcentrum), youth and family services via Huis van het Kind Peer, and social welfare through Dienstencentrum De Perelaar and De Schommel. Operating geographies are limited to a single Belgian municipality; headcount is 51–100 staff across four physical locations (Peer, Kleine-Brogel, Grote-Brogel, Kaulille).

The municipality's digital platform centers on the peer.be website, the Mijn Stadsapp mobile application, and a Pieter-branded AI chatbot assistant. Core technical integrations include the Eloket online counter for administrative requests, MijnAfspraakMaken for appointment booking, Tixly-powered ticketing for cultural events (migrated from Ticketmatic in March 2026), Burgerprofiel citizen authentication from the Flemish government, Matomo analytics, and BE-Alert emergency notifications. The website is designed for accessibility compliance with EN 301 549 and processes personal data under GDPR. Mobile and web support voice search, and the July 2026 launch of LiSA extends AI assistant capabilities into the Mijn Stadsapp channel.

The entity is funded through municipal taxation and Flemish government allocations, not commercial revenue. Disclosed user fees are modest and primarily cover community services: Fietsbieb bicycle library membership at €30/year plus €20 deposit, Werkkot tool lending membership at €40/year, flea market stand rental at €1 per 3 meters, and entrepreneur subsidies up to €5,000 per project in village centers. Strategic direction is shaped by active infrastructure investment (50 km planned cycle path network, the N747 regional corridor project with four neighboring municipalities and Fluvius/AWV), the Planeet Peer sustainability program targeting 5,000 m² of de-paved surface, and digital service expansion rather than commercial scaling.
