Due to problems in Heerlen or by heroin - street prostitution in 1996 to decide the local one prostitution area, which is then systematically disabled citizens. In 1999 the council decided to re-zone a streetwalker in a different location. It works since June 2000.

 

Tippelzone sabotaged by citizens

 

In 1996, Heerlen years' heroin street prostitution ", and caused [two] years nuisance, which the sources consulted described as: hours through residential areas away from prostitution clients. That decision years the City to construct a prostitution area . This is formally established in January 1997, the Heideveldweg in north Heerlen. Its purpose is to reduce the nuisance of street prostitution elsewhere in the city.

From the start block residents of the neighborhoods Palemig and Heksenberg around Heath Veldweg permanent access to the prostitution area, and know as to prevent that once a prostitute or customer zone can actually use. Soliciting occurs in this period actually on a car park, or in, shopping. After five months the CDA draws its political support to the zone, which no longer has a majority, and the city council in May 97 decision to close the zone.

In the period to June 2000, according Intraval getippeld actually in the neighborhoods and Grasbroek Breederveld, according to the Volkskrant on the Sittarderweg near downtown and on an industrial estate in Heerlen-Noord.

 

Tippelzone Imstenraderweg

 

In July 1999 Decision the city to a new zone on the streetwalker Imstenraderweg on an industrial site in south Heerlen. Its purpose is:

a) prevent and reduce the nuisance of prostitution; B) to enhance the safety of female prostitutes, c) improve the medical care and assistance to female prostitutes.


In June 2000, the area in use taken. Prostitutes who want to work must have a permit, these are has given up 85 in May 2001 this number reduced to 70.

On behalf of the municipality of Heerlen does Intraval office in 2000 and 2001 study likely effects of imposing the prostitution area. In his report states Intraval that by setting the area by residents in the former streetwalker area experiencing nuisance or street prostitutes greatly reduced, and that the area around the new tippelzone the annexation of public space by drug addicts " leads to strong increase in nuisance to residents. About changes in the safety of prostitutes or the quality of care does for them Intraval not comment.

 

Opposition to the tippelzone

 

In 2005 make "a number of council members" to, to close the prostitution area, and pointing to the closure of the areas in Amsterdam, Rotterdam and The Hague. After evaluation of the Heerlen area allows the city council in January 2006 out that closing the area or limiting the hours or make major cuts in cost would not be logical, would lead to more nuisance of street prostitution more risk and less concern for the women.
