Marl's Green Space Revolution: A Team of Professionals Transforming the City's Outdoor Facilities

In Marl, a dedicated team of professionals is transforming the city's green spaces. Benjamin Villis, David Breuckmann, and Julia Schwarz, all with unique backgrounds and skills, have been working together to ensure the city's outdoor facilities are not only enjoyable but also environmentally conscious.

Benjamin Villis, a former football enthusiast, now works in Marl's city administration. He finds his job enjoyable as it combines his personal passion with his work. One of his notable projects was the interior planting of the Römerstraße roundabout, where he faced challenges like salt and exhaust fumes. He also coordinated with the local club at the artificial turf pitch in Polsum, overseeing details like floodlight masts, small goals, and drainage.

David Breuckmann, known to enthusiastic children in Marl, takes care of playgrounds and outdoor facilities in the city. His responsibilities range from small maintenance projects to large-scale redesigns like the transformation of the Volkspark into a climate park. The team works closely with all actors involved, ensuring a positive atmosphere and a focus on environmental protection.

Julia Schwarz, a graduate landscape ecologist, has been part of the administration for about a year. She supports various departments in their planning, ensuring proper consideration of environmental factors. The department is seen as a small company that is very broadly based, with a focus on nature, environmental, and species protection.

The team's collective efforts are reshaping Marl's green spaces, creating enjoyable and environmentally friendly facilities for its residents. Their dedication and expertise ensure that the city's outdoor areas are not only well-maintained but also sustainable and protective of local ecosystems.
