On the program of the municipal council of Château-Gontier-sur-Mayenne this Tuesday, October 25: the project to expand the gendarmerie which provides for ten more dwellings.
The professionalization of the gendarmes
“This is to meet the needs of the gendarmesexplains Philippe Henry, the mayor of Château-Gontier-sur-Mayenne. They evoke the professionalization in particular of the services of the PSIG, the intervention platoons of the gendarmerie, and which make that the gendarmes who until now were assistant gendarmes will be non-commissioned officers, that is to say that the ‘we are going to go from gendarmes who can actually do a stint in the gendarmerie to gendarmes who will be professionals, officers and therefore what changes the quality of their housing.”
The work should only see the light of day within a year and a half and should be taken care of by Podeliha, the private company that owns the walls as part of a public-private partnership with the community, adds the Castrogonteria councilor. “For the moment, the rent must cover the needs of the gendarmerie. We will see according to the construction cost. We do not know today at what price the construction will come out and to see whether or not there will be a need to make a supplement to guarantee the balance of the financing. But for the moment, we are at the beginning, at the characterization of needs. Then, we will actually move on to the estimate, once the file is a little more refined.“
