Rachida Dati has been mayor of the 7th arrondissement of Paris since 2008. - Jacques Witt / SIPA

"The first request from Parisians is tranquility and cleanliness," said Saturday candidate LR for mayor of Paris, Rachida Dati, who notably proposes tripling the number of video surveillance cameras in an interview with the Parisian . “I want 3,400 agents in the field, against 2,900 currently. They will be equipped, as in all major cities, with lethal weapons, bullet-proof vests and a fleet of screen-printed vehicles, equipped with siren and flashing light, to combat everyday delinquency, "explains the current mayor of the 7th arrondissement.

Rachida Dati also wants to bring the number of cameras to 4,000 in six years, compared to 1,360 currently, and create a post of security assistant in each arrondissement. In terms of cleanliness, the former Keeper of the Seals of Nicolas Sarkozy suggests "the mechanization of tasks" and the generalization of "modern tools", "like" compacting "bins that do not overflow when they are full", as well as the development of artificial intelligence.

"Turn the Hidalgo page"

“In addition, we must empower the mayors of the boroughs. They would be in charge of part of the cleanliness, the roads, "says the candidate, who is following outgoing mayor Anne Hidalgo (PS) - or even exceeds her - in the intentions to vote in the first round according to several polls. If she considers that "no one can win alone", she returns the question of alliances to "evening of the first round, according to the scores", when "the question of the best way to turn the Hidalgo page will arise".

Regarding transport, Rachida Dati indicates "working on a mobility scheme with experts with fluidity as a priority". "I will sanctuary the sidewalks for pedestrians. I will put order in the public space, “she still promises. But it refuses to take a position on a possible reopening of the lanes on the banks to cars: "It will be the Parisians who will decide at the end of the consultation on the mobility scheme", she argues.

"I do not increase taxes during the term of office and not even indirect taxes," said candidate LR, who wants to "sharply reduce all municipal rates related to families and the elderly": "For example , the maximum rate for the canteen which is currently 7 euros, I lower it to 3.50 euros. "
