Sunday September 22, the inhabitants of Mont-sur-Lausanne accepted with 71% of the votes an initiative aimed at protecting a valley threatened by a project of 14 buildings, at the same time as they rejected the federal initiative on biodiversity. Similar objects were accepted by the population in Montreux, Blonay-Saint-Légier, Saint-Sulpice and Crissier. While Vaud is one of the cantons experiencing the strongest demographic growth, citizens express their dissatisfaction with densification. We asked Christelle Luisier, liberal-radical state councilor at the head of the Department of Institutions and Territory and president of the Vaud government, how she understands this phenomenon.
