Advisory Memorandum on the Lease Situation in Gijzenrooi and the Surrounding Area of 't Uilenest

For cadastral parcel K 1142, the municipality of Geldrop-Mierlo has had a standard lease agreement with Mr. P.A.A.M. van Gastel since January 1, 1981. This lease agreement remains in effect through December 31, 2028. Following Mr. van Gastel’s death on May 31, 2022, the lease agreement was not automatically terminated. To date, no formal succession has taken place. The parcel is still being used, and the annual lease payment is invoiced by the municipality and paid by the tenants. In recent years, various discussions have taken place with the family members involved regarding the situation that has arisen and possible solutions. These discussions have led to an agreement on an amicable termination of the regular lease agreement. To facilitate this termination, it is proposed to terminate the lease agreement early and to sell two portions of cadastral parcel K 1142 to the current users of these lands.

The council resolves:
1. To approve the lease termination agreement for the Van Gastel estate. 
2. To approve the sales agreement for a portion of cadastral parcel K 1142 in favor of Mr. Van Gastel

Policy Memorandum: Council Proposal on the Area Vision for the Zesgehuchten Core Area

A number of significant urban development projects are underway in Zesgehuchten. The Jozefschool (currently spread across two locations on Papenvoort and Gildestraat) is in need of a new building; the former retirement home, the Josephinehof, is outdated; and the church council has indicated that it is open to selling the parsonage garden. In addition, the municipality plans to redesign Hoog Geldrop Street and the church square, and there are opportunities surrounding the community center and social services. To coordinate all these developments, the municipality, together with Woonbedrijf, has taken the initiative to draw up an area vision for the center of Zesgehuchten. An important condition for both parties was to allow the residents of Zesgehuchten to actively provide input on the vision and the decisions made within it. From the very beginning, therefore, the focus has been on participation with the Stichting Toekomstvisie Kern Zesgehuchten (hereinafter: St-Tkz) and the other community organizations active in the neighborhood. 
In addition to being discussed in the Spatial Planning Committees on May 11 and June 23, 2026, the vision was also discussed during the council meeting on July 6, 2026. At this meeting, the council decided to request that the municipal executive further refine the vision, requiring the municipal executive to repeat the school impact assessment for locations 1, 2, and 5, with the note that for location 5, the entire area—starting from Papenvoort—must be included in the analysis. In addition, the municipal executive was tasked with conducting a general traffic flow study for each of the aforementioned locations.
During the council meeting of July 6, 2026, the council also tasked the municipal executive with developing a programmatic approach for the Zesgehuchten neighborhood, which will outline the desired situation in twenty years’ time in “ Map .” This approach will be presented to the council at a later date.

The council resolves:
1. To approve the Zesgehuchten Core Area Vision.
2. To approve the council proposal and the decision item contained therein.
3. To approve the agenda request.
