Communication between you and your municipal administration has changed dramatically. If you used to come to our offices during opening hours to sort something out, you can now only do so by appointment. This means we can

• shorten or even avoid waiting times for you and
• prepare for the appointment with you individually in advance.

You can arrange your (preferred) appointment with some offices online. This is practical, easy and quick. Of course, you can also get your appointment by phone. And many concerns or inquiries can also be answered or dealt with over the phone.

No appointment is necessary for two areas

Sometimes our offices have to close at short notice or their availability is limited. In these cases, we will inform you via our service portal.

Dogs are generally not permitted. Exceptions are only possible if a dog is required for health and educational reasons (e.g. assistance or school dogs) or if the dog owner has been requested by the city to present their dog at the office.

Do you need help? The central telephone number of the city administration is 09131 86-0.
