He also chaired Gjøvik's school board, and was deputy chair of the supervisory council of Kommunenes Filmcentral and Norsk Film. He chaired several local companies: , Gjøvik Skifabrik, Gjøvik Auto and Byggeleverandøren, and was a board member of Gumælius og Reklame and , as well as the Federation of Norwegian Industries. He was a deputy representative to the Parliament of Norway in the terms 1925–1927, 1928–1930 and 1931–1933, representing the Market towns of Hedmark and Oppland counties. In 1924 he was elected on the ballot of the Communist Party (which he had joined), but right after the election he gave up this party and rejoined the Labour Party. He returned as local Labour chairman, serving until 1934. He was elected as a full member of Parliament in 1933 and 1936. His last term was ended by the occupation of Norway by Nazi Germany, during which he was also removed as mayor. He instead became manager of the company , where he remained until 1961. He returned as mayor after the Second World War, and sat from 1945 to 1967. In total, he is the longest-sitting mayor in any Norwegian municipality. He also spearheaded policies, branded "Ødegaardianism", that bore the characteristics of a mixed economy (i.e. not really socialism). In 1967 he was proclaimed an honorary citizen of Gjøvik, and in 1972 a monument to him was unveiled in the city. He died in 1976. (en) |
