Olaf Meinen: From Mayor To Aurich's County Commissioner!
Is Aurich on the brink of an economic precipice? The stark reality is that the Landkreis Aurich faces an unprecedented financial crisis, with a record deficit looming large, threatening the very fabric of its public services and future prospects.
Olaf Meinen, born in Leer, Ostfriesland, in October 1967, stands at the epicenter of this storm as the Landrat (District Administrator) of Aurich. An independent politician, Meinen brings a wealth of experience to the table, having served as the Mayor of Großefehn from 2006 to 2019. Now, as the chief of the Aurich district administration and its highest representative since assuming office on November 1, 2019, following a decisive 53.5 percent victory in the first round of elections, he grapples with the daunting task of steering the region through turbulent financial waters.
