It was a clear, clear, calm and smooth community council meeting which took place Tuesday evening at the auditorium of the Chabran cultural center, in Draguignan. The elected representatives of Dracénie Provence Verdon agglomeration adopted seventy-two deliberations at the end of a 3.5 hour meeting, including a whole series on water.

Limited quantity daily

Summer has just arrived and the community is once again anticipating the consequences of drought. It thus requests the Water Supply Syndicate of the Entraigues source to purchase emergency water for three municipalities.

The resource will be stored in the municipal reservoirs of Lorgues and Taradeau, before being transferred exclusively to Draguignan, Flayosc and Les Arcs-sur-Argens. The quantities delivered are limited: 40 m3 per hour to Arcs-sur-Argens (i.e. a daily volume restricted to 230 m3) and 240 m3 per hour for the other two (i.e. 740 m3 to share daily). The sales agreement will not exceed one year.

Sewage sludge in fields

Sillans-la-Cascade will not be able to benefit from it, but maybe one day, who knows? The village decides to transfer the management of its water and sanitation network to the urban area.It is coming to the end of its leasing contract with the Suez company.indicates Christophe Carrière, the mayor of the said municipality and vice-president in charge of the theme.

Less attractive this time, the decision was made to devalue the sludge resulting from wastewater treatment. Those from the Taradeau-Vidauban and Arcs-sur-Argens wastewater treatment plants will therefore be spread on agricultural soils in the region for five years. With the agreement of the operators, obviously.

Earth taken and reinjected

In order to limit the evolution of erosion and the incision of watercourses, earth will be injected between La Clappe and upstream of Pont d’Aups, in five places. This will be taken from Nartuby, in the communes of Ampus and Draguignan, in Rebouillon (Clos and Granégone sector). Three zones have been defined. “The Argens Mixed Union indicates that the volume will not exceed 256 m3 in total., specifies Alain Caymaris, in charge of major risks, flood and rainwater prevention. The disbursement will be approximately 1 meter high on average. The work should begin in July. They could last a month.

Other points to remember

The deliberation on fixing the 2024 tax rates amended: it was voted on on April 8, but the services of the Var prefecture rejected it… “It is necessary to make changes both in form and substance., explains Richard Strambio, president of DPVa. In form, the mention concerning the housing tax (TH) “reform of the TH in progress” must disappear, since it has been in effect since 1is January. As for the substance, in addition to a change of mention, the rate of the business property contribution (CFE) 2024 “must be set at 0.010, calculated as the rate differential between 28.31%-28.30%”.

Relaxation of the allocation of competition funds:In order to offer more flexibility to municipalities in submitting their files”, elected officials modify two criteria for allocating competition funds* to DPVa municipalities, indicates Richard Strambio. Thus, the latter will be able to present up to two projects over the period 2023-2026 instead of just one. The allocated envelope will not change. Also, the procedures and terms of submission of files are flexible. It is now possible to select one which will have already started work. And the deadline for eligibility of expenses taken into account is set on 1is January 2024.

The draft Territorial Climate Air Energy Plan (PCAET) 2024-2030 finally adopted: forty-three actions were unanimously approved by elected officials in order to achieve, by 2030, a reduction in energy consumption by 18%, a threefold increase in the share of renewable energies and a reduction of 29%. greenhouse gas emissions in the territory.

The mayor of Salernes faced 8 blank votes and one draw for her election to office…

Already opponents of the mayor of Salernes?

In reaction to the resignation of the former mayor of Salernes, Cedric Dubois, DPVa elected officials therefore voted to replace him, then a member of the office responsible for innovation and the circular economy.

Only Marie-Laure Tortosa, who was elected head of the commune at the end of April, submitted her candidacy.

But the count surprised more than one: if 49 elected officials voted in favor, 8 voted blank and one draw was counted (an empty envelope).

Although she has only just arrived, does Marie-Laure Tortosa already have opponents?

After being applauded, the former first assistant said to herself:very honored and happy to work” with his new colleagues. It thus recovers innovation and the circular economy.
