The district administration of the Oberbergischer Kreis takes on numerous tasks that directly affect the lives of people in the region. Our employees work daily to make the Oberbergischer Kreis a livable, safe, and future-oriented place. Many tasks are coordinated district-wide because they go beyond the boundaries of individual cities and municipalities. Thus, the district administration is the point of contact for many aspects of daily life – from youth and social affairs to health and mobility, as well as environment, safety, and education.
The district administration of the Oberbergischer Kreis ensures that numerous public services are reliably provided and actively supports the development of the district area. Many people directly or indirectly interact with the services and tasks of the district administration in their everyday lives – often from birth to old age.
The Oberbergischer Kreis takes on tasks that individual cities and municipalities cannot or should not perform alone. Many topics need to be organized and coordinated uniformly across municipal boundaries. These include, for example, areas such as social assistance, health, civil protection, environmental and nature conservation, road traffic, building supervision, or youth welfare. At the same time, the district supports the municipalities in the district and takes on important coordinating functions.
As the administration of the district, the district administration is also a state authority and performs numerous statutory tasks. Additionally, it oversees the cities and municipalities in the district. At the head of the district administration is the district administrator. He is elected every five years by the citizens of the Oberbergischer Kreis and leads the administration.
