In addition, he was head of the planning department of the German Labor Front (DAF) from 1934 to 1938 and was commissioned by Josef Bürckel in mid-May 1938 with the planning of new settlements in the Ostmark . In 1939, Karl Neupert took over the management of the urban planning department of the Reichsheimstättenamt in Berlin from Georg Laub .
