What does the rule say – that is to say the General Code of Local Authorities? That “the mayor is solely responsible for administration, but he may, under his supervision and responsibility, delegate by order part of his functions to one or more of his deputies and to members of the municipal council”. Clearly, he transmits function(s) and/or signature(s) to a subordinate who can then act in his name – knowing that the mayor obviously cannot delegate all of his responsibilities. And this is done by decree, no need to convene new councils.

And as since the 2014 mayoral election, François Bayrou has had national responsibilities, the core of the executive regularly makes “coordination points”.
If the first deputy does not know exactly the mayor’s views in terms of “general delegation”, it could precisely be general coordination. A delegation held by the former first deputy, Jean-Paul Brin, who died in June 2019 – he who was intended to replace the mayor who became Minister of Justice in 2017, alongside Edouard Philippe. A time when it was fashionable to give up your local mandate when entering government.
