Why I am running

Vechta and Langförden are places where many people simply love to live. I want to shape this city together with you – with focused work, direct channels, and an administration that listens.

Anna Frohn

A city of many daily lives.

Vechta is the school run, the weekly market, the end of the workday, daycare pickup, the university campus, and the local gathering all at once. Four figures show what politics here must focus on.

Key Issues

My priorities for Vechta

01Family city
Family, daycare and school
Children, parents and schools need reliable everyday routes: safe ways to school, good care and places where young people have room.
02Housing
Housing and urban development
Vechta should remain a home for families, trainees, students, older people and new arrivals.
03Economy
Business, work and local firms
Vechta lives from small and medium-sized firms, crafts, farming and the food sector. They need an administration that enables.
04Mobility
Access and traffic
School, work, doctors and the centre must be reachable without everyday frustration.
05Climate
Climate, energy and responsibility
Climate protection has to work locally: affordable, understandable and concrete.
06Care
Health and ageing well
A city must support people when daily routes become harder: with care, accessibility and places to meet.
07Volunteering
Volunteering and community
Vechta lives from people who take responsibility in clubs, fire brigades, churches, choirs, sport and neighbourhoods.
08Safety
Safety and cleanliness in the cityscape
Safety is quality of life. People should feel comfortable in the centre, parks and streets, also in the evening.
09Leadership
A modern, approachable administration
City hall must be reachable, explain decisions and treat residents and businesses as partners.
