The construction of a sidewalk is controversial in Vérel-Pragondran, in Savoie.

As Le Dauphiné Libéré

reports

, the Lyon administrative court of appeal recently canceled a deliberation of the city council of February 2018 on the grounds that it was tainted with "excess of power".

This municipal decision made it possible to regularize 21 m² of a sidewalk built illegally in 2011, with the aim of selling it to a resident, a municipal councilor.

The town hall will not destroy the sidewalk

According to our colleagues, this setback brought by the Lyon court provoked the ire of the mayor: “It is an insult.

Why couldn't we sell to a councilman?

The dispute relates in particular to the fact that this sidewalk, which existed before 2011, had been destroyed for pipe work.

At the origin of this legal action, the former mayor of Vérel-Pragondran defends himself from any settling of scores, specifying to our colleagues that the municipal councilor in question had taken no steps to regularize the situation.

The current mayor plans to buy the plot but assures that he will not destroy this sidewalk.
