What Gemeinde Petershausen does

Gemeinde Petershausen is a municipal government entity (Gemeinde) under German public law, located in the district of Dachau, Bavaria, Germany. It serves the local resident population with mandated public services including civil registration, local governance administration, water and wastewater management, public works (via the Bauhof), childcare, library services, and community engagement. The municipality operates through a Town Hall (Rathaus) at Bgm.-Rädler-Straße 3, 85238 Petershausen, with weekday opening hours (Mon/Tue/Thu/Fri 8:00–12:00, Thu also 14:00–18:00), and is currently operating with reduced Bürgerbüro hours in July/August 2026 due to staff shortages.

The municipality's digital interface is the petershausen.de website, which functions as a self-service portal (24h Rathaus) for online administrative procedures such as business (Gewerbe) registration, alongside an event calendar, mayor's blog, and citizen-reporting system. The communication stack includes a printed bimonthly community journal, 'Bürgerjournal Mein Petershausen', with a circulation of 3,000 copies distributed free to all households via Deutsche Post. Operational units include the Bauhof (public works), the Eigenbetrieb Wasser/Abwasser (municipal water/wastewater utility), and the Kommunalunternehmen Petershausen KUP (a municipal enterprise). A formal sister-city partnership is maintained with Varennes, France.

Gemeinde Petershausen is funded through local taxes, state allocations, and municipal fees (water/wastewater, waste, childcare, etc.); no commercial revenue is generated and none is publicly disclosed. The municipality is governed by an elected mayor (Bürgermeister Johannes Stadler), a municipal council (Gemeinderat), and department heads covering finance, civil engineering, building authority, personnel, and the citizen office. Active strategic initiatives include the Rosensiedlung residential development, Kommunale Wärmeplanung (communal heat planning), a solar power subsidy program, climate protection efforts, and Fairtrade Town certification.
