"Secondary residents disembark with impunity ... There are a few and there are a few too many." Mountain mayors denounced the arrival of holidaymakers in their communities this weekend, in defiance of the confinement instructions.
"What do we see it for?" It is the neighbors who see the chalets which are suddenly lit, who put a message saying: "But why they are there? What are they coming to do? Let them stay at home, from start to finish ! "", Said Jean-Marc Peillex, the mayor of Saint-Gervais-les-Bains (Haute-Savoie) at the microphone of France Bleu.

"It's not à la carte"
“They would have chosen Saint-Gervais to confine themselves, no problem; they would have been welcomed with open arms, but it's not à la carte, ”continues the elected official. For him, the episode "will leave traces". "We are a small village and people will remember that such a family did not respect, that such a family came."
In Savoy, it was the mayor of Valloire, Jean-Pierre Rougeaux, who protested in a message to his constituents ironically about "the spontaneous generation" that appeared in the station on Sunday.
“Our population, while movement is either prohibited or regulated by the administration, has just increased significantly. I would like to remind all these new arrivals that the rules of confinement, the "barrier" prescriptions are in force here as in the usual place of their residence, "wrote the councilor.
No walk, no hike, no bike
"Here as elsewhere, we are impacted and we put into practice the recommended rules: no walk in the mountains, no hike in the snow, no bike," warned the mayor.
School holidays started on Saturday for zone C (academies of Créteil, Montpellier, Paris, Toulouse, Versailles).
