Salzburg is the only state capital without a single public barbecue area. “The 150,000 inhabitants don’t have a single place where you can legally make a fire or grill,” said the application, which, in addition to Dankl, also signed three mandataries from SPÖ, Bürgerliste and NEOS. Many Salzburg residents could not afford a house with a garden or an apartment with a large balcony. “It would be nice to have at least some legal barbecue areas – especially now that many people can’t go on vacation due to inflation,” said Dankl. In addition to the Glanspitz near the Lehen power plant, which the application explicitly mentions, there are a number of large parks or the Lieferinger bathing lake for barbecue bowls.
