Eric Legrand, mayor of the city, recalled it once again, Monday, January 20, on Monday, during the ceremony of his wishes to the population. “” “The municipal council made its action towards responsible and effective solidarity one of its first objectives.“
Social and solidarity actions
And to note on social policies, ie “In the direction of youth, our elders, in favor of education, solidarity, animation, culture or sport” : “Many actions have been perpetuated, are now well anchored, others created. The success of our leisure centers without accommodation cannot be denied. In 2024, nearly 200 children attended them during the holidays or on Wednesdays.“
Without forgetting the Emile Luciani space labeled social life space: “The actors of this place of life offer many activities, open far beyond the East district, actions of inhabitants for the inhabitants, such as the making and the sharing of meals, or the organization of evenings which allow each of Have a good time.“

And after solidarity, another priority axis of the city: the living environment! “” “Whether it follows from current maintenance, maintenance and renovation plans recently put in place, or magnitude investments, it aggregates all energies. Urban cleanliness and the embellishment of the city are regularly underlined by our fellow citizens. It was a commitment. It's a great satisfaction for everyone!”Explains the mayor.
He then recalled some actions carried out such as that of a city councilor who listed public benches and renovated them, the green brigade, the planting of trees, the renovation of communal housing…. » Other works have been entrusted to local businesses. I am thinking of the complete and long -awaited renovation of the magnificent wrought iron door of the town hall, that of the lanterns that highlight it, jumped by ironworkers, that of no less awaited roads and sidewalks as in the streets Lamartine , from the mill or Charles Gronier, at the replacement or the addition of missing lampposts here or there …“
Renovated or renovation heritage

Other works allowing the maintenance of Hamois buildings and heritage is underway as Eric Legrand recalled, in particular the organ of the abbey in full renovation. “” “The work will last 6 to 8 months. I specify that the collection of donations launched via the heritage foundation and offering the right to tax reduction is always open and will remain so until the end of the work.“

And finally the stadium renovation project and the creation of pétanque terrains which for the moment is the subject of research of financial partners. “” “Our stadium hosts football and pétanque clubs that suffer from the degraded state of their facilities. The development of pétanque land, upgrading football fields, the creation of a training field and various renovation works have been the subject of consequent grant agreements of the Somme Department but not yet other partners. The same goes for the renovation of the stands, the locker rooms and the club house of the footballers. We await the feedback from these partners in order to be able to position ourselves on a precise work schedule. We are advancing in concert with the two clubs concerned and work on a phasing of the project in order to advance at best, first on the play areas.”
