The new multipurpose room, a goal that is taking shape

The multipurpose room is a long-term objective, an assessment of the year 2024 and prospects for 2025 were discussed during a meeting with the village’s first magistrate, Luciano Stella, this Wednesday, January 15.

How was the multipurpose room project decided?

During my first term as mayor, we set the objective of rehabilitating and improving it; but in the meantime, there were the events of October 2018, floods which stopped us in our project. For three years post-floods we worked on the village and we secured its two entrances: towards Salsigne and Cuxac-Cabardès. The reflection on the room project came next. This was the project of our 2020 electoral campaign.

The rest was certainly not a smooth ride?

We worked with the departmental technical agency to consider two possibilities. The construction of a new room or the rehabilitation of the existing one. For an equivalent budget we stuck to the renovation. It is in the center of the village and that brings it to life. Subsidy requests with the help of the department for project management specializing in renovation followed. Since then we have moved on to construction which will be completed by the end of 2025; the associations are impatiently awaiting it. The two phases of work amount to a total of €865,000 excluding tax. Everything is 70% subsidized, €120,000 will be self-financed.

2024 was not only dedicated to the room?

-

Last year we worked a lot on municipal buildings, the renovation of the grocery store with the pergola, built by VLAC for example; the construction under management, by municipal employees, of the city stadium, the pétanque court and the rehabilitation of a room above the school; we have always saved on work.

This allows us to consider other expenses.

And for 2025?

The hopes for 2025 are to keep our great achievements like the demonstrations which attracted in 2024, a crowd never seen before in the town. These were great successes.

And then, with the new drinking water plan which is on the horizon, our work will focus on improving the village center networks with new pipes.
