The Department reaffirms its support for the municipality

Jean-Louis Masson, President of the Department, visited La Crau on September 15 to meet with Mayor Christian Simon, who was elected Senator of Var in the recent elections.

Support for the municipalities of Var and territorial investment strategy were at the heart of this visit. A working meeting took place to finalize the partnership between the Department and the local authority.

Key structural projects at the center of discussions

The agenda focused on presenting investment projects deemed "structural" for the municipality. These large-scale operations aim to improve the living environment, infrastructure, and economic attractiveness of the area.

This discussion provided an opportunity for the departmental executive to assess local needs and evaluate the modalities of its financial and technical support. Indeed, the Department positions itself as the primary partner for municipalities and their groupings (EPCI), a role it intends to embody on the ground.

Territorial fairness as a guiding principle

Jean-Louis Masson took advantage of this visit to reaffirm the main principles of his action. The President of the Departmental Council detailed the institution's commitments regarding territorial equity and solidarity.

This policy aims to guarantee balanced development across the entire Var region, providing tailored support to both urban municipalities and rural villages.

This commitment is notably reflected in the "Municipal Aid Scheme," an essential financial lever that enables the co-funding of numerous local projects.

The visit thus illustrated the governance method advocated by the Department: direct dialogue with local elected officials to ensure that departmental aid responds effectively and meaningfully to local realities.
