With this "multi-year investment plan", an increase of 160 million euros (+ 24,6%) compared to that of her predecessor, the socialist Roland Ries, Jeanne Barseghian intends to "prepare for the future".
This effort should make it possible to finance the "renovation" and "safety" of schools as well as the "construction of new schools" in order to split certain classes, she detailed at a press conference.
The other major priority is the "energy renovation" of municipal real estate, the "revegetation" of certain spaces as well as the acquisition of "clean vehicles".
"We are at a pivotal moment in the social and climate emergency, it is our decisions that will or will not reduce the impact of climate change, our investments must be up to the task", argued the elected ecologist .
This plan should also allow, according to her, a "catching up" of working-class neighborhoods and the strengthening of "territorial equity".
"Over the past 15 years, 60% of investments have not benefited lower-income neighborhoods, we are determined to compensate for this imbalance," she insisted.
The financing of this plan was not detailed, the first deputy, Syamak Agha Babei, merely indicating that it was made possible by "a controlled increase in the debt, at a time when the budgetary situation is sound and where interest rates are low ".
He indicated that the municipality's debt forecast for 2026 amounted to 404 million euros, "an increase of 159 million euros" over the mandate, or almost all of the new effort made.
"No one, no community, no State, invests without resorting to borrowing," he stressed.
The municipal team defended an approach of "openness and transparency" by revealing the outlines of this plan. "We are choosing to put these projects on the table, this information should not be reserved for the happy few," said Jeanne Barseghian.
