City seeks covert tips on flawed applications

In the bustling city of Wuppertal, residents have the opportunity to use apps like 'You are your place' to report defects and administrative offences they encounter. However, it is important to clarify the role of this app and the city's response to the reported issues.

The 'You are your place' app claims to ensure prompt fixing of reported defects, but it is essential to note that the city of Wuppertal does not guarantee this. While the city investigates tips received via the app, they do not automatically resolve the issues reported.

If the tips relate to an administrative offence, the city decides on a case-by-case basis whether to pursue it. The city's investigation process is based on the principle of administrative investigation, which means each case is carefully evaluated before action is taken.

It is also worth mentioning that the city follows up on anonymous tips, but the resolution of the reported issues is not guaranteed. This claim made by the 'You are your place' app is an interpretation that has been retracted as incorrect.

The responsible authority in Wuppertal for processing reported administrative offenses submitted via apps like "Du bist dein Platz" is the Central Fine Collection Office (Zentrale Bußgeldstelle) of the Wuppertal City Administration, located at Johannes-Rau-Platz 1, 42275 Wuppertal, reachable by phone at 0202 - 5635743.

In summary, while the 'You are your place' app provides a convenient platform for residents to report issues, it is important to understand that the city of Wuppertal does not guarantee prompt resolution of reported defects or administrative offences. Each case is carefully evaluated, and action is taken based on the principle of administrative investigation.
