In order to exploit the development potential of the 50-hectare area in the southwestern part of the city,
the Municipality of Kecskemét intends to implement a complex development program in the area of
Homokbánya, to which many projects are connected.
Among the already implemented projects aimed at the renewal of the district are the Katica Nursery
with 4 group rooms and a useful floor area of 700 m 2 , the building providing municipal social services
and the Péter Lestár Education Center (Mercedes Benz Schule), which has been renovated inside
and out. The newly established nursery indirectly contributes to the development of the youthful age
composition of the district, by making the settlement of Homokbánya more attractive for young families
with small children.
Among the projects under implementation is the "Green City in Homokbánya", which aims to develop
the area, improve the quality of the living environment, and renew public spaces in an environmentally
friendly, family-friendly and climate-friendly way. The park will be equipped with a "Wheel City Bike
Park", a cycling skills course, a road safety course and a running track. In addition, a building of about
500 m 2 will be renovated to provide enclosed space and indoor/outdoor space for the activities planned
in the recreation area. A recreational play park will be built adjacent to the green area and the adjacent
social facilities.
At the same time, the Municipality's employee housing program, launched in 2002, will continue.
