Kompass: who is the right person to talk to?
- Lord Mayor Sven Schulze for cross-departmental ideas for the city’s development. As the ‘head’ of Chemnitz City Council’s team, he is open to hearing about problems, suggestions for improvement and requests from the people of Chemnitz. This naturally also applies to the children and young people of Chemnitz who would like to share their ideas and wishes for child- and youth-friendly urban development with our Lord Mayor.
- Deputy Mayor Knut Kunze for questions and concerns regarding law, safety and environmental protection. He is responsible for the Legal and Public Order Office, the Citizens’ Office, the Environment Office, the Fire Service, the Food Safety and Veterinary Office, and the Zoo, and can assist with these matters.
- Mayor Dagmar Ruscheinsky is open to ideas, suggestions or issues relating to social affairs, youth, health, culture and sport. Under her leadership, the Cultural Services, the Chemnitz Art Collections, the Social Services Office, the Youth Welfare Office, the Sports Office and the Office for Health and Prevention operate.
- Mayor Thomas Kütter is the point of contact for matters relating to urban development and construction. He is responsible for building management and building construction, the Town Planning and Property Office, the Building Regulations and Surveying Office, the Transport and Civil Engineering Office, and the Parks and Green Spaces Office. He can provide information on these topics and welcomes constructive suggestions.
We ask for your understanding that only a limited number of appointments are available for the public consultation hours. It is therefore possible that not all registered residents will be able to attend a consultation.
We reserve the right to make changes, which will be announced in good time.
