Here are three key pieces of information to remember from the Roquebrune-sur-Argens municipal council

Here are three key pieces of information to remember from the Roquebrune-sur-Argens municipal council

There was no caustic outburst at the last pre-summer break municipal council meeting, where the twenty-eight resolutions on the agenda were adopted without a hitch, or almost, in just over an hour.

Despite the lack of debate, several decisions made by city councilors were not without significance. Here's a look at three of them.

1. Accommodation on the village's school sports ground

At the corner of Boulevard Henriot and Rue du 11-Novembre, a project to build approximately 49 housing units has been brewing in the pipeline for the municipality and the Public Land Establishment. The project aims to address the backlog of social housing in the municipality, which is currently subject to the penalties provided for by the SRU law.

Part of this project is located on plot BI 229, with its 1,500m² of land. This is the sports field used until recently by the village's elementary and nursery schools.

However, "given the proposed project and the dilapidated state of the facilities, which no longer meet current standards, schools now use the Calandri hall, as well as the city stadium and the Brémont dojo," reported the deputy mayor responsible for urban planning, Gilles Priarone, during the public session where elected officials approved the decommissioning of the site and its declassification from the municipal public domain.

2. Lac Arena concert festival stamps revealed

During a deliberation aimed at adopting the internal regulations of the Lac Arena concerts festival, opposition member Didier Lemaître questioned the majority on the cost of organizing this new event, which plans to produce four free concerts between July 9 and August 30.

After some behind-the-scenes research, the deputy mayor responsible for the festivities, Marie-Reine Louisa, was able to detail the cost of each concert on the spot.

An amount closely linked to the fees of the various artists. The City will thus pay 10,339 euros for Madame Monsieur, 21,100 euros for Klingande, 20,687 euros for Charlie Winston, and 36,925 euros for Roberto Alagna.

In addition, there is a fee of 3,158 euros to obtain civil protection support, with a total cost of 92,209 euros including tax.

3. Lemaître offensive on the archaeologist affair

Once all deliberations were exhausted, Didier Lemaître alerted the mayor and the majority regarding a municipal decision that he considers illegal.

In this case, the City plans to appeal the administrative court's judgment of June 11.

Which authorized Didier Lemaître to represent the municipality before the criminal court with a view to obtaining compensation for any damages suffered following the recruitment by the mayor of an archaeologist who happens to be the wife of the son of the first cousin of the chief magistrate (our edition of January 23).

"You are taking legal action using municipal funds, but this procedure is not against the city, but against you," warned Didier Lemaître the day before yesterday, attacking the entire majority.

In response, he received a laconic "ok" from a Jean Cayron who showed no signs of concern.
