New mayor Renner: Great interest at the open day in Meißen!

A very special day took place in Meissen on October 29, 2025. New Mayor Markus Renner took office and immediately got into action when the city administration opened its doors to the citizens. The event, which has never taken place in this form before, made the hearts of the visitors beat faster and provided a refreshing breeze in the city administration.

Anyone who made their way to the town hall on Tuesday between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. had the opportunity to find out about the work of the city at various stations. The fire brigade, the registry office, the youth city council and the financial administration were involved. A little scavenger hunt between the stations provided additional fun and brought not only families, but also many young people, including a dedicated class from the Pestalozzi OS, to the town hall. Despite the mixed weather, some interested people followed the call and took part in the one-off event, which was organized at surprisingly short notice to symbolize transparency and openness.

A day of closeness to citizens

The open day was an unforgettable premiere for the city administration's long-standing employees. They had never experienced such an extensive event before. The positive response from citizens shows that there is great interest in the city administration and its tasks. The exchange between the city and citizens has been taken to a new level and forms a great basis for future actions.

In order to further promote dialogue with citizens, the city administration also relies on modern technologies. ProjektStadt's digital platform has a modular structure and enables the cost-efficient use of various online participation tools. These tools support citizens in both planning and implementing and monitoring projects. In addition, the platform ensures an individually adapted design according to the needs of the city.

A digital tool for everyone

At a time when digital solutions are becoming increasingly important, there are also tools such as the Simple Calculator, which are suitable for all ages and experience levels. This online platform offers a user-friendly interface and the ability to perform basic arithmetic calculations easily and for free. Regardless of whether you are a student or an expert, everyone will find the tools they need for their calculations here, without the need for additional software or hardware. With this flexibility, it fits wonderfully into the city’s innovation strategy.

The open day in Meissen not only gave citizens a voice, but also helped to set the course for a digital future. The openness and willingness to collaborate between the city and citizens will certainly produce fruitful results in the coming months. And that's just the beginning! Whether in administration or through digital tools, it remains exciting to see what Meissen has in store for the future.
