In the city council of 08-02-2011 was the letter from nudestrandje.nlon the agenda with the documents received. Unfortunately, it came off the councilno response to the letter. Incorrect information appears to be thecouncil should not be a problem.

New:
Article in GeneralDaily newspaper of 13-01-2011.
Strange, now that the nudist beach has been "dug away" goes B&Wfinally with the buttocks exposed and daring, at the emphatic insistence ofthis site, to inform the council. Hopefully the council will not agreethe abolition of the nudist beach. By cutting down trees andpossibly (partially) filling in the pond and pool banks is possible againa sunbathing area is created. Let the advice also be so easyoffend?
Precisely because of the development of the new residential area Rijswijk Zuid with4250 homes, there will also be more need for (naked) recreation. Thethe presence of a nudist beach within a short (cycling) distance fits in perfectlythe sustainability objectives of the new Rijswijk Zuid residential area.Or does the municipality chase the naturists in the car towards the coast?
11-22-2010: According to the NFN sitethe board of B&W Rijswijk decided to build the nudist beach in the Wilhelminapark in RijswijkClose. The municipality of Rijswijk has completed the refurbishment of theWilhelminapark, in the context of the Zwethzone project, to leave the nudist beach unnoticedto disappear.
In this refurbishment, the water features in the area are connectedconnected and the banks are naturally arranged. The wooden onesshore protection disappears and in its place are, among other things, puddle-marshyand pool banks constructed. The municipality of Rijswijk wants to use these measuresincrease water storage and improve water quality in the park.
For incomprehensible reasons, the sunbathing area, the actual nudist beach, also hashave to make way for puddle-marshy banks. There is only room left for roadside naturism.
Repeated contact with the municipality, both orally(press officer) as via e-mail, has no information whatsoeverdelivered. The municipality has
consciously thissite did not inform and also misinformed the NFN.
This site believes that despite the minimal possibilities tonude recreation here, this place is still suitable fornude recreation.
Removing the signs and deleting the provisions from theAPV does not make this place unsuitable for nude recreation.
For a video of the scandalously destroyed nudist beach by the municipality of Rijswijk, look at
YouTube.
The NFN asks visitors to the nudist beach to contact the NFN (bernd@nfn.nl).Of course they can also make their objections known to the Rijswijk alderman of, among others.Sport and Green, D. Jense.
Or give your opinion in the guestbook.
Letter to the alderman (23-11-2010)Dear Mr. Jense, On the sitefrom the NFN I read the message that the Board of B&W vanRijswijk has decided to open the nudist beach in the Wilhelminaparkclose.
From the beginning of August I asked the municipality for information aboutto provide the nudist beach (see email below).To date I have only received an acknowledgment of receipt andno information.
Please (pursuant to the Government Information (Public Access) Act) urgently,answer the following questions:
- Why don't you inform this site?
- Why is there no information available at the Zwethzone project about the closure of the nudist beach.
- Did the plans for the refurbishment of the Wilhelmina Park were made immediately after the nudist beach was made?Close?
If not, how is there in the new layout of the nudist beachtaken into account? - Has there been consultation with the parties involved?
If not, why was there no consultation?
If so, what did it consist of? - On what date did the Municipal Executive decide itnudist beach?
- Is the closure of the nudist beach enshrined in anydocument?
If yes, I would like a copy of these documents. - Is the city council aware of the decision?nudist beach?
- What is the exact reason for the closure?
Furthermore, I believe, that despite the minimal possibilitiesto recreate nude here, this place is still suitable fornude recreation. Removing the signs and deletingthe provisions of the APV do not make this place unsuitable for thisnude recreation.
I would like to receive an acknowledgment of receipt of this e-mail, etcanswers to the questions asked as soon as possible. Your answers willI also forward it to your city council.

Update 5-12-2010: This site has been waiting for 4 monthson information about the nudist beach.
When will alderman D. Jense finally go with the buttocksnaked. Still no response or acknowledgment receivedon the last email. Shame.
Update 12-15-2010:
Letter to the city council of Rijswijk
Update 12-16-2010: In an article in the newspaper
The Hague Central(July 23, 2010) the municipality made the commitment: “
Itarea for nudist recreation is indeed getting smaller, but that will comeby the new design for the park. The municipality of Rijswijk does not want tooff the naturist sunbathing area ”,
assures aspokesperson for the municipality.Conclusion: The municipality of Rijswijk is very unreliable.
Update 30-12-2010:
Themunicipality of Rijswijk comes up with a (disappointing) answer.
In the autumn of 2010, the Wilhelminapark was redesigned as part of the Zwethzone project.The water features in the area are connected to each other and the banks are naturally arranged. Thewooden embankment has disappeared and in its place are, among other things,pond, marsh and pond banks constructed. With these measures, the municipality wantsRijswijk, among other things, to improve the water quality in the park.
At the beginning of August, the nudist beach was closed for a few days due to
archaeological research. Shortly afterwards, the contractor started therefurbishment of the banks. At the nudist beach there is diggingnow completed. The large sunbathing area has had to make way fora pool bank, which has not yet been planted. Also the other green strips alongthe water are gone. Everything there is from the nudist beachwhat remains is a narrow strip along the footpath, where it is hardly possibleare recreated. On the last visit to the nudist beach, wasremoved the sign indicating the nudist beach. Also thesignpost to the nudist beach has been removed.
All references to the nudist beach have been removed.
