Decision making process

Name of the case study
Maurice Audin Storm Water Detention Basin

Decision making process
The project was triggered off by a petition from the district inhabitants, and by a letter from the City Mayor to the Department. The decision making process was then based on a dialogue between the different actors of the project.
Consequently, studies and inquiries were done in order to conceive the project and its financial management. Meetings were then organised to present the project to the public.

From the consultation procedure, the following orientations were raised:
- creation of a site easy to use for inhabitants
- creation of a site open to public with play activities
- preservation of enclosures with well defined entries in the strategic points
- active participation of the actors involved in the urban life of the district: the municipality and the population for maintenance of the site.

Decision making process - how was the information for the dmp disseminated
This project could be realised thanks to petition of the inhabitants. Then, it became feasible thanks to the collaboration between the Municipality and the Department.
As it is mentioned previously a strong consultation was made with the surrounding inhabitants at the stage of the project inception. It was to get a good knowledge of the social and urban context of the detention basin, and also of the inhabitant´s perception, expectations and fears about the potential site renewal without missing the technical aspects.
