As Munich officials defy the spirit of the times

everything, Everything is getting faster and faster in today's time. Unless some time limit is a processing on the desks of the municipal authorities.

It is a fast-paced time. The gears that keep our society Running, resort to more and more complex way to each other and rotate at the same time, getting faster and faster. If one has not been already ejected can be almost dizzy. However, there is a reliable anchor in the global speed chaos. A people of indomitable Desk people, it seems, does not stop, the more frenzied expectant spirit of the times to resist: the city's administration.

five years ago came out to a request of the Greens, the Munich-based management of failure to comply with the prescribed deadlines for applications and enquiries in the city Council only in a quarter of cases, often, the editing process took twice as long. The logical consequence? You doubled the deadlines for applications for six months, in the case of requests to six weeks. Adapting the Ideal to the reality. That was in may 2017. Has since become all better? The Green had a hunch, so she asked again.

by the Deadline? The exception

A request to requests, so a Meta-request in the meantime. To this request the management replied this time, unusually quickly had to give, namely, within three weeks, that the requests "unfortunately, a significant deterioration in the processing time" had occurred. In the past, each third concern was answered by the deadline, now it is only every fifth.

The Green expect of the mayor in power until the summer to make concrete proposals on how this miss leave. Each of the administrative units meet no guilt, you stay out of the little time to edit the content. The Greens have put in a request. He ends with the words: "We ask that, as provided in the rules of procedure of the city Council, a timely processing of our application."
