Overview
- Treep will take over from Petra van Hartskamp after her ten years in office, with the handover scheduled for 11 December.
- Her appointment is temporary and will last until a permanent mayor is selected through the formal process.
- As acting mayor she will chair the municipal council and the executive college and guide the municipality through an upcoming election period.
- She leaves her Soest alderman post a few months early after previously deciding not to serve a third term.
- Her party, Gemeentebelangen Groen Soest, will determine who covers her remaining portfolio, and Soest Mayor Rob Metz praised her work; she will not stay to see the Parckhart housing project break ground in early 2026.
