South Tyrolean Housing Institute
The South Tyrolean Housing Institute (abbreviated WOBI ; Italian Istituto provinciale di edilizia sociale , abbreviated IPES ) is a public-law institution for social housing in South Tyrol . The administrative seat is in the provincial capital Bolzano .
history
The WOBI was founded in its current form in 1972 as a result of the South Tyrolean autonomy regulations . His immediate material and legal precursor was the 1934 Italian Fascism created Istituto fascista autonomo per le case popolari , the housing for immigrants in the context of the objectives pursued by the regime in 1927 erected Province of Bolzano Italianisation should create South Tyrol, especially in Bolzano and the larger towns of Country. Thanks to the extended autonomy provisions, its ownership was transferred to the South Tyrolean provincial administration, which, with the reconstitution of social housing in 1972, quickly developed capillary housing construction, primarily in rural areas and away from the provincial capital. Only recently has the WOBI also set urban development accents in Bolzano, in particular with the new construction of the Kaiserau-Casanova district . In 2017 it managed a total of 13,300 apartments with around 30,000 residents in 112 of the 116 South Tyrolean municipalities.
