What Stadtverwaltung Bad Friedrichshall does

Stadtverwaltung Bad Friedrichshall is the municipal administration (Stadtverwaltung) of Bad Friedrichshall, a city in Baden-Württemberg, Germany, operating as a Körperschaft des öffentlichen Rechts under Mayor Timo Frey. The entity was formed in 1933/35 through the merger of Kochendorf, Jagstfeld, and Hagenbach, received city rights in 1951, and incorporated Duttenberg (1972), Untergriesheim (1975), and the Plattenwald district (1992–98). It serves a population of over 20,000 across 6 districts through the main Rathaus at Rathausplatz 1, three Verwaltungsstellen in Plattenwald, Duttenberg, and Untergriesheim, the Standesamt, a Bürgerbüro, two recycling centers, a composting site, and a volunteer fire department. Customer-facing segments include families with children, senior citizens, new residents/immigrants, property owners and businesses, and volunteers/non-profits.

The core digital platform is the municipal website portal (www.friedrichshall.de), which integrates electronic residence registration (Elektronische Wohnsitzanmeldung), a virtual construction office (Virtuelles Bauamt), marriage online via ehe-digital.de, a defect-reporting system (Mängelmeldung), and a children's holiday program registration portal. Supporting technology includes Matomo open-source web analytics (cookie-free, anonymized log files), Google Maps API, embedded YouTube and Vimeo, and the docdirekt (SmED) medical triage service for 116117 routing. Communications run through Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, X, WhatsApp channel, the Heimatbote newsletter, press releases, and town-hall events. The platform is GDPR/DSGVO-compliant and partially aligned with EU Web Accessibility Directive 2016/2102 and WCAG 2.1.

The entity's revenue mechanics are statutory rather than commercial: municipal tax collection (property tax, trade tax, municipal levies), recurring waste-management fees (e.g., €7.00 per 50L residual waste bag, €1.50 per 60L garden waste bag), and transaction-based administrative fees for permits and services. Capital expenditure in 2026 includes a €125,500 bicycle parking project at Kochendorf and Untergriesheim train stations (€106,675 federally funded) and a ~€110,000 soccer facility renovation. The administration is governed by an elected municipal council with FY2026 budget confirmed by the Landratsamt Heilbronn, and operates two citizen foundations (Bürgerstiftungen) for culture and sports, each seeded at €50,000.
