history
The previous Verbandsgemeinde Hochspeyer was established in 1971, the Verbandsgemeinde Enkenbach-Alsenborn in 1972, as part of the first administrative reform in Rhineland-Palatinate . Previously, the administrative structures originating from the Palatinate (Bavaria) (1816–1946) essentially applied in the then administrative district of Palatinate .
On September 28, 2010, as part of the second phase of amendments to the regional reforms in Rhineland-Palatinate , the state government passed the “First Law on Local and Administrative Reform ” with the aim of improving the efficiency, competitiveness and administrative power of local structures. For municipalities it was determined that they should include at least 12,000 inhabitants (main residence on June 30, 2009). On the reporting date, 6,863 residents were registered in the Hochspeyer community and 12,830 in the Enkenbach-Alsenborn community. During the so-called voluntary phase, which was limited to June 30, 2012, there was no voluntary amalgamation of the Hochspeyer community with a neighboring regional authority .
On July 1, 2014, the association of Hochspeyer was incorporated into the municipality of Enkenbach-Alsenborn on the basis of a state law of December 20, 2013. On January 29, 2016, the Constitutional Court of Rhineland-Palatinate dismissed the legal review complaint that the municipality of Enkenbach-Alsenborn had filed against it , and confirmed the legality of the law of December 20, 2013. The court stated that the municipal guarantee of self-government had not been violated and that there were no balancing errors by the legislature.
