Political career Waidele Wolff was appointed Mayor of Pichilemu, by the military government presided by General Augusto Pinochet, in 1981. He succeeded José Lino Vargas Jorquera, who held the office between 1979 and 1981. He held office until 1982.

During his administration, he made an attempt to buy the building that now hosts the Agustín Ross Cultural Center with municipal funds; however, Waidele was not allowed to complete the purchase because the price of eight million pesos (approximately US$16,000) was "too high for the municipal budget, and would leave many things without financing."
