Munich's Lord Mayor congratulates former city councillor Norbert Kreitl on his 90th birthday

Munich's Lord Mayor, Dominik Krause, has congratulated former city councillor Norbert Kreitl on his forthcoming 90th birthday, sending his good wishes on behalf of the city council and personally.

Kreitl served as an honorary member of Munich City Council for twelve years. In his message, Krause said the development of the city and its urban planning had been particularly close to Kreitl's heart.

Kreitl was also long-serving chairman of the Neuperlach sports club. Krause said he had made a lasting contribution to the wellbeing of Munich's residents through joint projects there, including a language and sports camp for refugees and sports activities specifically for women.

In 2002 he received the gold award "Munich Shines – To the Friends of Munich" for his political and community work. In 2018 he was given the "Golden Badge of Honour" for his outstanding services to sport in Munich.

"I wish you all the very best for the future, above all health, happiness and personal wellbeing," Krause said.
