Farewell to the old council, installation of the new council
On Tuesday 31 March, the final council meeting will take place. During this meeting, we will say farewell to the current municipal council.

What happens next?
A new municipal council also means new aldermen. Together with the mayor, they will form the executive board of mayor and aldermen.
- The parties will first hold discussions to determine which parties can work together and which issues are most important. The largest party will take the lead in this process.
- Next, the parties will negotiate to form a majority. This means the parties working together must hold more than half of the seats in the municipal council.
- After this, the coalition parties will formalise their agreements in a coalition agreement. This document will serve as the foundation for the new administration.
- Following the agreement, the parties will nominate aldermen, who must then be appointed by the municipal council.
