"You have been tireless in your commitment to nature and the people here in the district -
both professionally and as a volunteer," Allgaier stated appreciatively. "The compatible
use of forests and soils was and is always an important concern for you," said the district administrator,
who was delighted that the former head of the forestry department at the Ludwigsburg
district administration office has not lost his enthusiasm for nature even in retirement
.
From 1985 to 1987, the 75-year-old was the nature conservation officer for the Enzkreis district in
Mühlacker as well as managing director of the Stromberg Nature Park. Since 1987, Schwarz has been managing director
of the nature conservation association "Schutzgemeinschaft Deutscher Wald" and head
of the Heimerdingen and Vaihingen an der Enz forestry office. As part of the 2005 forestry reform,
the lower forestry authorities were integrated into the district office. Frieder Schwarz was head of the new forestry department at
Landratsamt Ludwigsburg until his retirement at
in 2011.
Since 1992, Schwarz has been one of four honorary nature conservation officers
in the district of Ludwigsburg and was most recently confirmed in office for a further five years.
In the west of the district, his area of responsibility includes the municipalities of Möglingen,
Schwieberdingen, Markgröningen, Hemmingen, Eberdingen, Oberriexingen, Vaihingen/Enz
and Sersheim. His expertise is particularly in demand when advising the lower nature conservation authority
on technical issues, applications from farmers, recently increasingly for mobile
chicken coops, for example, or private individuals.
With 250 statements a year, the applications have to be read and examined in detail. The
district administrator praised Frieder Schwarz's three
decades of service to nature, people and the landscape, saying that very
good local knowledge and knowledge of people are important ingredients in the work of a voluntary nature conservation officer
.
In the service of nature, people and the landscape
Frieder Schwarz has been a volunteer nature conservation officer in the district for 30 years. The retired senior forestry director has now been honored by District Administrator Dietmar Allgaier for his service to nature, people and the landscape.
