Martin Fasan (born February 9, 1959 in Vienna , Austria ) is an Austrian politician and AHS teacher. He was a member of the Lower Austrian state parliament and deputy chairman of the club. He lives in Neunkirchen and was Vice Mayor and City Councilor there until 2020.

State politics

Fasan has been active in green politics since 1983. In the resistance against the planned Danube power plant in Hainburg , he acted as vice chairman of the Konrad Lorenz referendum . Then he was one of the founding members of the party Die Grünen - The green alternative in Lower Austria and at the federal level. In the state elections in 1998 , Fasan ran for second place on the list and was sworn in as a member of the state parliament on April 16, 1998. Until August 2008, Fasan was in charge of the specialist areas of transport , water management , building regulations , regional planning , regional policy and housing construction as the club's deputy chairwoman. He resigned his mandate on October 1, 2008 in order to be able to devote himself to his civil profession and community politics again.

Local politics

Fasan has been a local councilor in his hometown Neunkirchen since 1985. From 1990 to 2000 he was city councilor for housing, from 2000 to 2005 and again from March 2007 to 2010 chairman of the audit committee. In the municipal council elections in 2005 he was the top candidate with the Greens Neunkirchen and received 17.95 percent of the vote, which was the third-best result of all around one hundred local green groups in Lower Austria in this election. Although the Greens lost 1.2% in the local council elections in Neunkirchen in 2010, heavy losses by the SPÖ enabled a coalition between the ÖVP and the Greens with the tolerance of the right-wing populist FPÖ. As a result, in 2010 Fasan took over the office of Vice Mayor and City Councilor for Urban Development (town planning, traffic, environmental protection).

Private

Fasan is AHS teacher for history and music in Wiener Neustadt at the Bundesgymnasium Babenbergerring , where he has also established himself as a choir director. He is married and has three children.
