In this Breton town, the Vilaine, swollen by precipitation, begins to rise from its bed. But since the start of the year, another subject has preoccupied the mayor: finding insurance. Since January 1, municipal buildings have found themselves without any coverage despite numerous searches by the town hall. The fault is the images of floods from recent decades which stick to the skin of the small town. Time is of the essence, because in the event of damage to municipal property, repairs will be entirely the responsibility of the town hall. A situation that worries people on site. The solution was found by the neighboring town hall a few weeks ago, without much satisfaction. A subscription at a golden price. The only proposal received, insurance at 43,000 euros per year, compared to 13,000 last year. Worse still, the deductibles are excessive. On the church, for example, for possible damage to be covered, the municipality would have to pay a million euros deductible. In the country, several hundred municipalities would find themselves without insurance contracts this year. TF1 | Report K. Gaignoux, M. Briens, K. Moreau
