“Municipal Union”

“Will everyone be able to get masks?” Or ? Will they be free for the poorest? What specific aid scheme for the poorest will be implemented? What measures will be taken to maintain the reduction in CO2 emissions? », Etc. : the signatories list a list of questions, which they wish to discuss.

Confinement: for Jean-Pierre Gorges, mayor of Chartres, “the curfew is not necessary”

A crisis management committee has been set up by the City of Chartres

But Jean-Pierre Gorges asks the new elected officials to be patient. “At the moment, the old council has to manage. You have to respect the law. The current executive makes the decisions. We are not discussing the future of the planet, but the survival of people and the functioning of a city in times of crisis “, explains the mayor of Chartres, who announces that” the new Council will be installed, a priori, the first week of June ”.
