Munich city council full meeting to be streamed live on Wednesday

Munich City Council will hold its full meeting in the Large Session Hall of the Town Hall on Wednesday 21 October, starting at 9am. The session is open to the public and can also be followed via the council's livestream at muenchen.de/stadtrat-live, where the debate will be interpreted into sign language.

Items on the agenda include Munich's bid for the Olympic and Paralympic Games and the extension of the U5 underground line westwards from Pasing to Freiham. The head of the city's Municipal Department, Dr Alexander Dietrich, is also due to be sworn in as a full-time salaried councillor.

The full meeting will also deal with other matters that have already been discussed in the council's specialist committees and now need to be confirmed. The complete agenda and the meeting papers are available on the city's council information system at https://risi.muenchen.de/risi/sitzung/detail/9141975.

Members of the public attending in person are advised that bags may be checked before they enter the public gallery.

A recording of the meeting will be available online at muenchen.de/stadtrat-live shortly after it ends. The recording of the full council meeting of 30 September can still be viewed there, along with verbatim minutes of previous full meetings.
