Visit by the Commissioner and the Dike Reeve

7:00 p.m. | March 15, 2023

King's Commissioner Arno Brok and Dike Reeve Luzette Kroon are visiting all 18 Frisian municipalities today. They started early this morning on Vlieland and will finish this evening in Leeuwarden.

At around 5 p.m., it was Opsterland's turn, and they arrived at the Lycklamahûs in Beetsterzwaag. Mayor Lex Roolvink welcomed them, and after admiring the garden full of beautiful crocuses, they entered the polling station. Member of the Provincial Council Erik de Groot, a resident of Opsterland, was also present. After a few chats, introductions, and photos, it was already time to travel on to the next municipality: Ooststellingwerf.
