L undi May 18, the mayor of Bondy organized a debate on the intermunicipal . Guest and speaker was Patrick Braouzec , as chairman of the urban community of Plaine Commune . The least we can say is that the set was hardly convincing.
Note first the crowds. A big hundred people filled the space easily Chauzy. Roger Gilbert, mayor of Bondy, and Patrick Braouzec them are welcomed. However, a city of over 50,000 inhabitants and inhabitants, we can not say that this is a great success. It must be said that the information level, the council had just made the minimum service: Reflections ad in the local newspaper, coated In a speech a little soothing ... and that's it. It does little. Moreover, the initiative does not even appear in the agenda website city!
But perhaps most municipal she was afraid of "ordinary citizens" are competing with the monopoly of speech? Indeed, the majority of questions from the audience was the result of elected officials (largely of the local majority, but the modem, which seems willing to blindly support a bit so we promised him tickets to the opposition within the Executive intercommunal) or SP activists, posing as such. Interventions "simple Citizens were so rare that Gilbert Roger felt compelled to highlight them!
On the merits, Patrick Braouzec painted a somewhat rosy intercommunality. It must be said that he "forgot" to respond certain questions, particularly those related to finance: no answer to the question on the general grant of operation (the carrot-stick state to the communities of metropolitan area), very evasive answer even laughable resources that enabled increase investment in astronomical proportions it has announced. Similarly, he answers worthy of worst of the Jesuits on the issues of democracy: in his view, there is no risk that the intermunicipal cutting the citizens of those supposed to represent ... since the fracture can occur even without intermunicipal! Such sophistry is breathtaking. But he seemed to perfectly satisfy the horde of SP activists who invaded the area Chauzy to hear the good word ... Does this mean that critical thinking and logic are not the qualities best cultivated in PS? I will not cross it not, that would mean.
Still working on these issues and democracy, we note the surge of Gilbert Roger, arrested on multiple directorships, swearing hand on heart that he wished neither to the presidency of intermunicipal or a vice-presidency. We know him remember those promises in a while ...
We also note some inconsistencies. While an issue highlighted the advanced "forced march" to the intermunicipal Braouzec, he does not see where is the problem ... even though he had explained that in the case of Plaine Commune, the process had taken place over years and years. Why, in the case of Bondy, Noisy, Montreuil, etc.. must we go so fast, since the objective is to launch the Urban Community January 1? Why not take the time to discuss, develop collectively? For
itself, we are not against the consolidation of municipalities. Quite the contrary! We advocate federalism, and thus a true federation of municipalities, to put resources together and develop solidarity. But the least we can say is that the debate last night Bondy was not convincing that this is the direction that is being taken! In short, the network Alter-Agglo93 not used to anything!
