In May 2017, the municipal council passed a resolution to draw up development plan no. 113 "Massenheimer Weg industrial estate". The primary aim of designating the new commercial areas is to facilitate the establishment of small and medium-sized commercial and craft enterprises, thereby strengthening company loyalty to Bad Homburg v. d. Höhe.
The development plan therefore aims to exclude competing uses by limiting the permitted uses, thereby avoiding an increase in land prices as far as possible.
The former regional park route running through the area will in future form the eastern boundary of the new commercial area and will therefore be integrated into the planning. To the east of the former regional park route in the direction of Ostring, the green strip with areas for agriculture, green spaces and nature conservation intervention and compensation measures will be retained.
The area to the north of the existing industrial estate is earmarked for an expansion of the sports grounds. In addition to the southern sports center, areas for two new sports fields are to be designated there, which will be accessed via the new road in the new commercial area.
