The Stop Overlast Kralingen <\/em>foundation (STOK) will dissolve itself on 1 June. The current board of the neighbourhood group against student nuisance has been unable to find successors. Over the past four years, the organisation has actively tackled the nuisance and the subdivision of housing in Kralingen.<\/p>\n

The residents\u2019 initiative STOK has been working with the municipality since 2021 on an action plan<\/a> to address student-related disturbances in the neighbourhood. Together, they organised meetings and consultation hours for residents and students<\/a>. STOK also contributed ideas for various measures, including the so-called traffic light system for problematic student houses<\/a> and stricter rules for room rental permits<\/a>.<\/p>\n

STOK played a valuable role, says district manager Joeri Viergever of the municipality of Rotterdam. \u201cSTOK raised the profile of the issues in Kralingen through powerful lobby at the city level. They did this through constructive talks with aldermen and within the city council.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\t
