Rhine Palatinate region

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Rhine-Palatinate region was one of the five planning regions in Rhineland-Palatinate until the transnational Rhine-Neckar metropolitan region was founded on January 1, 2006 .

The region was created with the new version of the regional law of February 8, 1977 and included the Palatinate districts of Bad Dürkheim , Ludwigshafen , Germersheim and Südliche Weinstrasse , as well as the independent cities of Frankenthal , Landau in the Palatinate , Ludwigshafen am Rhein , Neustadt an der Weinstrasse , Speyer and Worms , the latter also being assigned to the Rheinhessen-Nahe region . Predecessors were the regions of Südpfalz and Vorderpfalz , established in 1968 .

Support of regional planning in the region was the planning association Rheinpfalz Kdö.R. , a self-governing body of the regional authorities belonging to the region . The central task of the planning community was the preparation of the regional spatial plan . To this end, it maintained an office at the Rhine-Neckar Regional Planning Association in Mannheim , which also merged the three regional planning plans in the Rhine-Neckar area in a second stage to form a joint regional planning plan.

With the state treaty between the states of Baden-Württemberg , Hesse and Rhineland-Palatinate on cooperation in spatial planning and further development in the Rhine-Neckar area of July 26, 2005, the tasks of the Rheinpfalz planning community were assigned to the Association Region from January 1, 2006 Rhein-Neckar Kdö.R. transferred, who has since created a joint single-stage regional plan.
