In the middle of summer, Eric Piolle thought he could sneak past by installing a new bike box from today in the small rue Lieutenant Chanaron, Championnet district. A few months ago, a large majority of residents rejected this project, which the municipality had (temporarily?) shelved.
But like everywhere, rue de Strasbourg or Cours Berriat, the Reds/Greens want to impose their dictates in one way or another. Here without informing anyone.
the Mayor’s decree announcing the work of installing the bike box from July 20….
ALREADY 3 BIKE HOLES, A BIKE BOX…
Except that despite the heat wave, the exasperated inhabitants reacted yesterday and let it be known that they would not tolerate being thus despised. Rue Lieutenant Chanaron suffered many losses of pitches with 3 bike rack installation devices, plus a mini bike box. You should know that these unmaintained metal boxes, tag nests, are also very noisy when users close them in the middle of the night in this narrow street.
RESIDENT TICKETS WITH FEWER AND FEWER SPACES
Cash-cow residents pay year-round resident tickets to be able to park in green spaces that disappear one after the other. Especially since the adjacent bars that are developing are attracting more and more customers who occupy the squares. The inhabitants suffer from the nuisance of noise, waste that litters the ground, when it is not the urine of people drunk on the doors of buildings.
the street is already very equipped with bike racks and a superb bike box that is very well maintained and raises the level …
FAMILIES AND ACTIVITIES
The small street has families with children who sometimes need their car, activities such as the Vaujany gallery, La Financiére des Alpes, a dental technician who also have needs. In order not to create entire districts reserved for bars, this diversity of the city must be preserved.
RESIDENTS PREVENT WORK
In this case it seems that two or three relatives of the municipality have decided that what had been refused by a large majority would be imposed in the summer. A bit like the pedestrianization of the rue de Strasbourg would come at the latest after the municipal elections. But the mobilization of the inhabitants, in particular around Mehdi Ben Fredj, professor of Mathematics, living in the street, was immediate and spontaneous. They decided that they would prevent the work from being done. As of yesterday, the SaccageGrenoble Facebook page alerted.
For his part Alain Carignon seized the Mayor and Sylvain Laval President of Smmag to ask them not to commit anything without prior consultation.
The inhabitants of the small rue Lieutenant Chanaron already support the pressure of all the surrounding establishments
AN ALTERNATIVE: THE GAMBETTA BD BOX
As a result, the works were not supposed to start this morning: they are stopped. Especially since the inhabitants offer an alternative for the installation of this new noisy bicycle box: install it to the right of the glass recycling device opposite rue Lieutenant Chanaron, on boulevard Gambetta. It does not bother anyone and corresponds very well to the needs of the customers of the drinking establishments of the sector, at the same time moving it away from the frequentation of the street….
DOES SHE WANT TO IMPOSE HER WAY OF LIFE?
If the municipality only wants to satisfy its relatives without disturbing the operation of a street a little more, it will choose this solution. If it wants to impose a way of life on everyone without taking reality into account, it will want to eliminate street parking again and again.
PUSH THE MANDHAPPY TO LEAVE GRENOBLE
In order to push the families, those who cannot do otherwise according to their activity, to leave the city to be replaced by a clientele conforming to the municipal model.
Thus, from this particular example which is found so many times in the city, we measure the challenge of the mobilization of Grenoble residents to prevent the irreversible. At this time, Rue Lieutenant Chanaron, despite the summer, the inhabitants prove that it is possible not to suffer and to push back Piolle. A fine example.
