The 25 Munich district committees are anything but toothless tigers. They are a special feature of Munich that connects the politicians in the Town Hall directly with the citizens in the city districts. If, for example, it is a question of preserving trees in the city districts or building a bicycle parking garage, the district committee can have a say in this. For citizens, the members of the district committees are direct local contacts. For the city council, they are like a network of ambassadors. And of course, the Munich women elect their direct contact person directly.
