- Steffan cites deteriorating roads, disadvantages for the Bebra-Erfurt rail line, staffing shortages and canceled classes.
- According to a municipal statement, more families are increasingly sending their children to schools in Hesse.
- A state switch requires interstate treaties or federal legislation approved by the Bundesrat; the municipality cannot decide alone.
