Since 2017, this Balbynian co-ownership has benefited from free support, financed by the Est Ensemble territorial public establishment and the City of Bobigny, intended for co-ownerships encountering difficulties. This support made it possible to validate a transition to a safeguard plan in November 2023. This system intends to create favorable conditions for carrying out work by offering aid for their financing as well as administrative and technical assistance for 5 years, from 2024 to 2029.
What is a backup plan?
It is a public device of duration of 5 years set up by decision of the State (Prefect) and at the request of the territorial public establishment. He is intended for co-owners who encounter financial, technical and social difficulties.
