Mayor Schick announces withdrawal in 2025 after 25 years!

Mechernich, Deutschland - A bang in Mechernich! Dr. Hans-Peter Schick, the long-time mayor, announced a shocking decision at his 25th anniversary: "I no longer run for 2025!"

The meeting was obviously surprised when the thoroughbred politician revealed his motives: personal and family reasons had prompted him to take this step.

"A every time has his time", according to Schick, who came to the conclusion after careful consideration that the right moment for his decision was now. His illness was particularly formative two years ago, which made him think about his future. "I thank everyone who thought of me," he said touching and emphasized that he had now recovered well. Despite the support of his party, he did not want to sit down and made the decision consciously and independently.

a call to the successors

With a view to the upcoming mayoral elections on September 14, 2025, Schick encouraged his party to find a suitable successor. "A good mayor has to win the hearts of the people," he said passionately and gave valuable advice for future management. He emphasized that a mayor does not linger in the office, but must mix under the citizens and be responsive to them. "If you are not ready to be present at the weekend, you are not suitable for the office," says Schick.

With a wink, he promised not to interfere in the business of his successor, even if it could be difficult for him. "They still have to endure me for a year," he concluded with a smile and thanked his family, who was often neglected. Dr. Hans-Peter Schick leaves the political stage, but his heir will continue to live in the hearts of the citizens.
