Open Streets and Grassed Areas


No removal of bushes, trees or flowers allowed. Climbing trees is not allowed. No games involving throwing an object e.g. ‘Frisbees’ (see Children’s Play Area). No public furniture to be removed e.g. park benches, ornaments etc. No begging. Being drunk or conducting oneself in a noisy manner is prohibited.


Bathing


Bathing in ponds, rivers and canals is prohibited unless a notice has been erected by the local authorities stating that bathing is permitted.


In Line and Roller Skates / Skate Boards


German law prohibits the use of in-line or roller skates and skate boards on public roads and pavements, unless the road is specifically designed as a “spiel strasse” and marked as such with a blue sign showing children playing.


Traders To sell, other than in a recognised shop, requires a Street Traders Licence issued by the Stadt. These licences are expensive. The Bde and Garrison HQ do not give permission for anyone to carry out door-to-door sales. If there are complaints please pass them in writing to your Unit Welfare Office who will pass them to the Bde and Garrison HQ. You may well be faced with door-to-door sales persons – we advise you to say NO firmly and shut your door. This nuisance can be stopped if you keep block doors locked and report all cases.


Unapproved Traders The basic guidelines on unapproved traders are as follows:


• A Commander can deny access to a military establishment to any trader but this does not necessarily include married quarters.


• A Commander can advise his soldiers that a particular firm is unreliable and recommend they advise their wives not to have any dealings with a particular firm.


• Any householder can challenge a door-to-door salesman and ask to see their Stadt Permit. A Stadt Permit to hawk costs money and needs to be applied for in advance. Most unreliable firms do not bother getting permits and are therefore liable to prosecution by the Stadt.


Game


Game shooting of all types is only permissible if a German Hunting Licence (Jagdschein) has been obtained. Details of how to obtain a Jagdschein are contained in SO BF(G) 5200. Local contact is the SLO on 05254 982 3342. Dogs are not permitted to hunt or chase game in woods and country areas, and local bye-laws require dogs to be on a lead in public areas i.e. areas to which members of the public have access.


The local gamekeeper can shoot any dog not under proper control on sight. Fishing without a licence is also prohibited. All persons wishing to fish must be in possession of a licence. Heavy fines may be imposed on those caught poaching.


Children


Liability for Children’s Actions In Germany, parents are held responsible for the misconduct of their children. To protect yourselves against possible legal damages, you are advised to insure against such a liability. The cost is nominal and policies that provide this cover are regarded
