A delegation from the City Council of Innsbruck was in New Orleans last week to renew the sister-cities agreement, which was first signed in 1995 on the initiative of Dr. Gordon “Nick”Mueller, the first Director of Center Austria. In 2015 the City Council of Innsbruck conferred their highest award on him, but never had an opportunity to give him the award. It was done on this occasion by the Council Member Irene Heisz.
The delegation included:
Mr Lucas KRACKL, Member of the Municipal Council of the City of Innsbruck
Ms Irene HEISZ, Member of the Municipal Council of the City of Innsbruck
Ms Janine BEX, Member of the Municipal Council of the City of Innsbruck
Ms Renate KRAMMER-STARK, Member of the Municipal Council of the City of Innsbruck
