The daily board is the point of contact for all residents, is in contact with the working groups and actively collects questions in the neighbourhood, draws up a neighborhood work plan for this and takes care of the associated subsidy applications.

The Executive Board convenes a neighborhood residents' meeting at least twice a year, reports financially to this Members' Council every calendar year and submits the neighborhood work plan for adoption.
