I hear so much rubbish on the subject that should restore things. In 1995, when I was elected for the first time, Marseille lost residents, businesses were fleeing, the unemployment rate was 21.6, the image of the city was degraded and were built only 1,000 units per year. Today, the marseillaise population increases, unemployment fell to 12.5, it creates 5,000 jobs private per year. It built 5,000 units per year in the city and close to 2,000 social housing are programmed by the urban community. The city is in motion. Of course, I do not say that everything is settled, including transport.
Compared to other regional cities Marseille lags indeed big...
This is scandalous how decentralization was conducted. The State is out own site transport. He had to borrow. Even today, we refund 200 million francs per year for the Metro of Gaston Defferre. But, little by little, things are improving. I take the commitment, if I am elected, that Metro work up to 11 hours of the night, so that today ' today, in the week, it stops at 21 hours. I also plan to achieve 100 kilometres of additional public transport in six years, mixing the Metro, tram, bus and the busway. Why this mix Because 1 kilometre from Metro costs EUR 150 million, 1 kilometre from tramway is about 38 million, 1 km of busway to 11 million.
A way to emphasize that with less of a taxable person on a debt which reached 1.5 billion euros, the city can not afford
It management efforts. This year, the Marseille transportation authority will identify additional revenue EUR 7 million. I will not have to increase the subsidy to balance.
In view of these problems of funding, will it not someday invent a Grand Marseille, with expanded funding
Marseille is a specific case where city-centre is poorer than the periphery, while it was all loads of centrality. Evening of games, there are 60,000 people at the Stade Vélodrome. And, at the Opera House, half of the audience comes from the rest of the Department. But the fiscal resources of Marseille are 554 euros per capita reaching 2.800 euros to Berre-l'Etang. Need to repair this injustice by better Equalization of resources. Only a law may do so. Elsewhere, beyond the perimeter of the urban community, need to create a community of projects on transport, the University, the economy, as it is already in the nomination of Marseille to the title of European capital of culture in 2013.
What is your ambition for the city
The place in the Top 20 of European metropolises. This should continue to attract investors and focus on the quality of life. The two zones of the municipality was created and the EuroMediterranean national site have changed state of mind of the city. Now, 1 euro of public money invested generates 4 euros for private investment. To develop, Marseille can play on the three pillars of the economy of the sea: the port, industry and tourism.
But the port has a very bad reputation.
It is clear that we have the most archaic Union. And, yet, must be that the private sector take more importance. It is vital to develop the activity. Currently, 83 of the traffic on the Western basins in Fos-sur-Mer. I want that the activity develops basins is. Should accentuate the container traffic, identify room for naval craft repair, increase the number of rings of boats and built a large dam so that cruise ships can manoeuvre as close as possible from the city centre. Today, the cruise lines are more than 400,000, against less than 100,000 in 1995. It is a chance for Marseille. We must stop to disembark in the hangar to bananas!
Another recurring problem: cleanliness.
Better clean and less dirty, it is my motto. A permanent combat. It took me a time crazy to leave the prefect and the 17 other mayors of Metropolitan to verbalize. Since a few months, we have compiled 6,000 minutes. We also fight against absenteeism of personnel, we reorganize the work...
Your competitor promises to put an end to the "finish-party", which allows the garbage collectors leave when their tour is completed.
Delete a method that exists in Bordeaux, Lyon, Nantes, is exposed to the risk of a long, painful and costly strike. This is not my understanding of things.
What card do you play in the Euro-Mediterranean Assembly
We have three advantages to assert: our geographic location, the quality of our decentralised cooperation with the Maghreb, Israel and Egypt, and our opening. Under the municipality Gaudin, abroad was greeted with a capital "E". Cannot say the same for everyone. I would have liked that the Mediterranean Summit will be held here. It was not possible the diplomatic constraints and security. But there will be other opportunities.
