There was a break in the voter community Citizens for Grasbrunn (BFG). As long-time vice chairman Johann Hiltmair and founding member Axel Bornheimer announced on Wednesday afternoon, the members unanimously voted out their chairman Thomas Michalka and also excluded them from the BFG. The reason are long-lasting irreconcilable differences. Michalka is therefore “no longer legitimized to represent the BFG” and he is also not allowed to speak on behalf of the BFG, in particular in the municipal council and on the homepage of the electoral group.
Hiltmair and Bornheimer did not provide any details, and Michalka herself did not provide a statement. According to Hiltmair and Bornheimer, he was absent from the ordinary annual meeting without apology.
It is still unclear what effects the decisions of the BFG will have on the municipal council. Michalka has been the only representative of the BFG there since the local elections in 2020. Together with FDP community council member Sven Blaukat, he forms a committee community. On Wednesday, the BFG asked Michalka to return his council mandate. You distance yourself completely from Michalka, among other things because of violations of the association’s statutes. The chairmanship of the BFG was provisionally taken over by Johann Hiltmair until the new election in 2022.
