    Several municipalities have suffered something similar to urban death. Like Sotenäs, where there are more part-time residents than permanent residents in the municipality, reports P4 Väst.

    Now the Member of Parliament Johan Hultberg (M) from Fjällbacka wants to investigate whether it is possible to introduce a municipal tax for part-time accommodation.

    – In many coastal municipalities, we have a very large proportion of part-time residents who spend more and more time in their holiday homes, but who pay all their taxes in the municipality where they are registered, he tells the radio channel.

    The proposal has received criticism, but Johan Hultberg says:

    – You have to work with some kind of stairs where you have different levels. This is not a simple question, for me it is important that we try to create more reasonable and better conditions for our coastal municipalities to actually finance the service, infrastructure and welfare that they must deliver to their municipal residents.

  • Wreck find at Öland: Champagne and soda water

    A shipwreck that may be from the 19th century was found south of Öland – filled with champagne bottles and soda water, several media reports.

    To locate the wreck, the divers from Baltitech had the help of islander Erik Bjurström. They found an estimated hundred apparently intact champagne bottles on board, he tells The barometer. Similar finds have previously been auctioned off in England for approximately SEK 30,000 per bottle.

    Soda water in clay bottles was also found. The technology to carbonate water was developed at the end of the 18th century and was then an expensive product.

    – It is an extremely sensational find, says Erik Bjurström.

    The company that produced the soda water still exists and it is after contact with them that the load is estimated to be from 1860.

    – It’s a bit like a frozen moment from the 1850s that lies there at the bottom, says archeology professor Johan Rönnby, who is director of the marine archaeological research institute Maris, to Dagens Nyheter.

    The County Administrative Board in Kalmar County is currently investigating whether the wreck should be considered an ancient relic.
