• Arlette Fructus had been assistant to housing at the town hall of Marseille since 2008.
  • She returned her delegation to the mayor, Jean-Claude Gaudin, on Monday.
  • Arlette Fructus regrets the lack of resources mobilized by the town hall to deal with the housing crisis that Marseille has experienced since the tragedy in the rue d'Aubagne.

Arlette Fructus slams the door. The Housing Assistant at the town hall of Marseille since 2008 announced this Monday in a letter, that 20 Minutes was able to consult, that she returned her delegation to the mayor, Jean-Claude Gaudin. In the front line since the tragedy in the rue d'Aubagne and the death of eight people in the collapse of two buildings, in the Noailles district, a little over a year ago, she wanted to clarify the situation.

“My commitment to managing the crisis following November 5, 2018 was total. The fate of evacuees was my only concern and I was fully involved in the drafting of the Charter for the rehousing of evacuees. This document commits the city and commits you. However, I note that the resources expected for the implementation of the charter are not mobilized by the city, ”she wrote to Jean-Claude Gaudin.

"No other elected official attends the meetings"

She also regretted "[s] her only presence without any other elected representative attending the meetings of the relocation steering committee and the monitoring committee of this charter". “The associations and other collectives who participate in these meetings denounce dysfunctions in the application of the charter and the non-compliance by the city of its commitments. They are right, ”she continues.

By making his delegation, Arlette Fructus no longer wants to "take on the responsibilities of other delegations" and can no longer accept that Jean-Claude Gaudin "does not use his authority to enforce the commitments made by the City to signatories of the charter ”. Finally, she regrets that "some are trying to defend their balance sheet, others are dreaming of building a political future, and meanwhile, grassroots elected officials are rolling up their sleeves and trying to be useful". The message could not be clearer a few weeks before the municipal elections, during which Jean-Claude Gaudin will not run again, after twenty-five years at the head of Marseille.
