Haaksbergen to vote on asylum seeker housing ahead of elections

Residents of Haaksbergen in Overijssel will vote next month in an advisory referendum on the conditions for housing asylum seekers, coinciding with the municipal elections. The referendum asks whether the municipality should concentrate asylum seekers at a single location or distribute them across multiple sites, and whether a center should be placed on land planned for future residential development.
