16 August 2022 at 22:56 Former Bærum mayor Odd Reinsfelt is dead Bærum’s longest-serving mayor, Odd Reinsfelt (H), is dead, aged 80. He was mayor for 19 years from 1992 to 2011. Reinsfelt fell asleep quietly in his home at Rykkinn on Tuesday afternoon, writes Budstikka. The right-wing politician Reinsfelt was mayor during a period when Bærum grew from around 90,000 to 115,000 inhabitants and contributed, among other things, to Sandvika gaining city status in 2003. Before he was elected mayor, he was deputy mayor for twelve years. Reinsfelt was succeeded by Lisbeth Hammer Krog from the same party, who still sits as mayor in Bærum. (NTB)
