College proposal Migration statement GOUW to MyExports and Key2Financien

In 2023, it was decided to transfer most tax tasks to the East Brabant Tax Cooperation (BSOB). This transfer was completed in January 2024. Since then, BSOB has been handling old objections, while Dienst Dommelvallei (DD) continues to carry out ongoing collections. For municipal taxes, both BSOB and DD use the Gouw package from GouwIT. Because the tax tasks have been transferred, it makes sense to say goodbye to the Gouw application and transfer the data. A migration project was carried out for this purpose. Now that this migration has been completed, it is necessary to draw up a so-called Migration Statement and have it signed by the municipal executive. The second appendix concerns the migration report, which describes how the migration was carried out. The last appendix is the migration statement.

The board decides to approve the migration statement for the migration of tax data from GOUW to MyExports and Key2Financien.

Advisory memorandum on the choice of location for two outdoor sports facilities in Geldrop and Mierlo

Following on from the 2024 study into sports facilities in public spaces, it is proposed that several new outdoor sports areas be created in Geldrop and Mierlo in phases over the coming years. Based on the results of the study and the participation process, it is proposed to create new supra-neighborhood sports facilities in Weteringpark (Mierlo) and Bosrand (Geldrop). In addition, opportunities will also be exploited to expand existing plans (Dommeldal and Santheuvel) with sports facilities.

The council decides:
1. To approve the location of two supra-district sports facilities:
* Bosrand location in Geldrop
* Weteringpark location in Mierlo.
2. To approve the use of existing developments at Dommeldal and Santheuvel to add sports facilities there as well.

Advisory memorandum Covenant Dommelstroom Intervention Team 2026-2029

Since 2019, the municipalities in the Dommelstroom core team (Cranendonck, Geldrop-Mierlo, Heeze-Leende, Nuenen, Son & Breugel, and Valkenswaard) have been working together under the name Dommelstroom Intervention Team (hereinafter: DIT). The aim of this collaboration is to address (complex) administrative enforcement issues. In 2025, it became apparent that the covenant at that time had expired. In 2025, under the leadership of a quartermaster, the municipalities made further agreements about the objectives, frameworks, and role of the coordinator with regard to the DIT. The present covenant includes the agreements made, including revised frameworks for the lawful exchange of data. This provides a solid (legal) basis for future cooperation within the DIT.

The council decides:
1. To agree to enter into the DIT covenant 2026-2029;
2. To inform the municipal council about the DIT covenant 2026-2029 by means of the attached council information letter.
