Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for 3 years now. Traffic is a disaster, reporting this to the municipality is a disaster. Moreover, the municipality considers it very important to build up the Natura 2000 areas. The last bits of protected nature are disappearing here. Voerendaal listens to no one. I am labelled as difficult when I ask for environmental building permits. Nature and climate are a big farce.
