Big screen and national journalists
The meeting of Pau elected officials is therefore convened an hour later than planned, at 7 p.m. instead of 6 p.m. The municipality plans to welcome people since a broadcast is organized on a big screen, in the peristyle of the town hall – please note the public must be present by 6 p.m. at the latest. Around thirty national journalists, alongside the usual local journalists, are accredited to follow this municipal moment. TF1, BFM, RMC, RTL, Europe 1 and Quotidien have asked for a place in the boardroom.
Many are wondering if the mayor of Pau and president of the Agglo will announce that he remains at the head of the two Béarnaise communities or if he is handing over – at least in the royal city to his first deputy Jean-Louis Peres.
Will François Bayrou remain mayor of Pau?
Appointed Prime Minister this Friday, December 13, François Bayrou should nevertheless remain mayor of Pau. A hypothesis which must be confirmed in the coming days. A municipal council is, again this Friday evening, scheduled for next Monday.
Le budget en promo
But this council which will outline the municipal projects for 2025 will also, without a doubt, be a strong symbolic moment for François Bayrou who is responsible for providing France with a budget, in the midst of a slippage in public finances.

The mayor has always insisted on voting on the budget for the year before the end of the previous year, and not waiting for the first quarter. Even with the uncertainties over the national budget, the budgetary orientations were debated at the end of November, including in particular a reserve of €2 million to anticipate the participation of local authorities in the recovery of public accounts – as it did for the Agglomeration, which will vote on its budget this Thursday, December 19. Two budgets which still boast, despite investments, of a controlled debt, even if it has increased since his arrival in 2014.

A perfect arena for the young Prime Minister, who will be able to highlight “the management of a good father of a family” which he regularly defends, before tackling France’s finances. Even if the opposition should also make other music heard.
Second important subject of this council: the presentation of the city center health center project, the walls of which EPFL must buy (those of the Chamber of Trades) before reselling them to the real estate developer Aedifim. No doubt another way for the Prime Minister to show how the politics of the mayor of Pau can push private projects in the interest of his constituents.
