What to remember from the last municipal council meeting on real estate transactions with a view to launching new projects in Ollioules

In January 2020, the Ollioules municipal council accepted the legacy of a property made by a resident, Mrs. Cécile Beckeric (wife of Fraisse), who died in June 2017. The latter had chosen to donate to the municipality a property located at 134 avenue Jean Monnet and comprising a residential house of approximately 92 m² on a plot of 2,780 m². The donor had, however, set one condition: "to create a home there for early childhood." On Wednesday evening, the Ollioules elected officials validated the transfer of the property with a view to implementing a project related to the purpose of the donation.
In recent months, the City published a call for tenders to identify candidates likely to carry out this program. Two applications were received last June. And after deliberation, the elected officials chose the one from the Suprana group, which proposes a mixed project: the creation of a 223 m² daycare center, a 1,100 m² community school, the establishment of medical activities on 450 m² and a 250 m² veterinary clinic. The project also includes the development of 51 parking spaces on the site, including 33 underground. The financial proposal made by the Suprana group is 900,000 euros. A price that "is close to that initially set in the specifications of the sale," the City indicates.
A school with an “innovative” pedagogyIt is specified that the school is the Cours Eric de Tabarly primary school, located in Toulon, which wishes to expand to accommodate nursery and middle school classes. This structure, which is part of the Espérance Banlieues network (17 schools in France), is developing an educational project presented as "innovative" with reduced class sizes (classes limited to 15 students), individual monitoring of children who have difficulty with the traditional school system, a partnership with families and particular attention paid to learning the values of the Republic and the national historical and cultural heritage.
"This is a great project that is presented to us," commented Mayor Robert Bénéventi at the end of the project presentation. An opinion not shared by the two opposition elected officials. Claudie Cartereau-Zunino voted against it on the grounds that "it is a non-contractual school" (which has not signed an agreement with the State, Ed.). In addition, she added, we could have taken advantage of it to build a second municipal nursery." His running mate Christian Bercovici felt that the project only "partially" respected the wishes of the deceased, who donated her property to the municipality. "No," replied the chief magistrate, "the legacy is fully respected since there will be a nursery and a school right next door, which is significant since Ms. Fraisse was a teacher."
The elected officials also approved several other real estate transactions. In particular: - In 2023, the City preempted a five-story building put up for sale at 7 rue Hoche, and acquired it for €328,500 with a view to building social housing. The building in question, which belonged to the landlord Toulon Habitat Méditerranée (which had installed an API Provence home there), includes ten housing units (9 one-room apartments and 1 two-room apartment) but requires rehabilitation. The City then approached Var Habitat, which wishes to acquire it with a view to carrying out a housing rehabilitation operation. And offered to buy it for €328,000. The City Council approved the sale at the asking price.
- The City is launching a call for applications for the transfer of a business located on the ground floor of a building at 18 avenue Georges Clemenceau. A property that the municipality had pre-empted and which is dedicated to the activity of motor vehicle repair. As part of its policy to revitalize the city center, the City is therefore launching a call for applications for the takeover of this property.
