The mayor of Paris is officially applying to test again, and under the Elan law, the management of rents, after a vote Tuesday in city council.
A five-year experiment. "The Elan law provides for the possibility of applying the framework of rents on the condition that the communities ask for it," said the deputy mayor of Paris in charge of housing, Ian Brossat (PCF). As provided by law, "this experiment must be conducted for five years," said the elected Communist. Tuesday, "the City of Paris made this request", which to enter into force must be accepted by the state.
However, two elements are missing for this new rent regulation to be applied: an implementation decree - announced for February - signed by the government, as well as a prefectural decree that sets the amount of rents quarter by district and whose date is not yet known.
The "second round of a battle" This deliberation, also voted by the UDI, represents "the second round of a battle", lost for the first time in June after the cancellation confirmed by the administrative court of appeal of the rent control in force in the capital .
Planned in about 30 agglomerations by the Alur law carried by Cécile Duflot, former Minister of Housing at the beginning of the five-year period in Holland, the rents framework was applied only in Paris, from 2015, and Lille, in 2017. At the end of 2017, justice had stopped these measures after being seized for different reasons by several associations.
