The Solbacken village association in Edenberga received a shock last autumn when the cost to connect to the municipal water and sewage network turned out to be twice as expensive as they had calculated, according to an official. The bill landed at 400,000 kronor, money the association lacked, the official said. The original estimated cost and the reason for the doubling remain unknown.
Over the weekend, the association hosted the gala 'En skitbra föreställning' (A damn good show), according to an official. According to calculations, the association has raised just over 300,000 kronor, an official said. The amount raised is enough to cover the costs that doubled during the autumn, the official confirmed.
The gala became like a last cry for help.
A private person is said to have donated 200,000 kronor themselves, according to an official, though the donor's identity is unknown. According to SVT Halland, Christopher Dahlström described the gala as a last cry for help. According to SVT Halland, Christopher Dahlström described that this means they can continue with the activities, take a small loan, and move toward a more stable economy, but the loan amount and source are unknown.
The specific activities of the Solbacken village association are also not detailed.
This means that we can continue with the activities. We can take a small loan and move forward towards a more stable economy.
