Gemeente Tubbergen

What Gemeente Tubbergen does

Gemeente Tubbergen is a Dutch municipal government entity (gemeente) serving approximately 21,000 residents in the rural Twente region of Overijssel province. As a statutory local authority, it delivers the full suite of mandated public services: civil registration (births, marriages, deaths), identity documents and driver's licenses, environmental and building permits, waste management, road maintenance, social support and healthcare coordination, spatial planning, sustainability initiatives, taxation, and economic development support for local businesses. Governance is provided by the municipality council (gemeenteraad) and the college of mayor and aldermen, with a 2026–2030 coalition composed of CDA and Keerpunt22 operating under the agreement 'Blik veuroet en deurpakk'n'.

The municipality operates a digital services platform built on the Drupal open-source CMS, with modular citizen-facing components including online appointment scheduling (mijnafspraakmaken.nl), DigiD-authenticated contact forms, the national Omgevingswet environmental permit portal, a public-space reporting system (Melding doen), and community engagement tooling such as the Tubbergenpanel citizen participation panel. ICT, HR, and administrative backend systems are provided through Noaberkracht, a shared services organization serving multiple municipalities in the region. Compliance posture includes GDPR/AVG, BIO (Baseline Informatiebeveiliging Overheid) information security baseline, and WCAG 2.1 Level AA accessibility. The municipality also runs community-facing programs including Fit & Vitaal Tubbergen (sports/wellness subsidies) and the Struweelhagen biodiversity project with Landschap Overijssel.

The municipality employs 78 staff and is headquartered at Raadhuisplein 1, Tubbergen. Revenue is not publicly disclosed in the source material but derives from the Dutch municipal fund (gemeentefonds) allocation, local taxes, permit fees (leges), and minor service charges — a non-commercial funding model typical of Dutch municipalities. Recent strategic activity centers on physical infrastructure development (Centrumontwikkeling Tubbergen center redevelopment, Weemselerveld 4 residential completion), circular economy initiatives (De Rondgang), and sustainability policy (wind energy, hedgerow biodiversity).
