Question 18764 — land use planning

Summary

Ms. Delphine Batho questions the Minister of State, Minister of Ecological and Inclusive Transition, on the Triangle de Gonesse urbanization project. The local urban plan (PLU) allowing the construction of this commercial megacomplex was canceled on March 12, 2019 by the administrative court of Cergy-Pontoise due to its ecological impact, its incompatibility with the noise exposure plans of the Paris Charles de Gaulle airports. Gaulle and Le Bourget as well as the manifest error of assessment constituted by the classification of 248 hectares of very fertile agricultural land as a zone to be urbanized. This decision is in addition to the annulment by the same court on March 6, 2018 of the prefectural decree creating the Triangle de Gonesse ZAC. The environmental study of the impacts of the creation of the development zone was deemed insufficient by the court which resumed the conclusions already rendered by the environmental authority on March 22, 2017. The environmental impacts of the project and its consequences on the population of Gonesse are such that the judges seriously question its implementation. However, the building permit for the Triangle de Gonesse station which is to accommodate line 17 of the metro was granted on September 18, 2018 and the order declaring the public utility of the project development plan for the Triangle de Gonesse was signed by the prefect of Val-d'Oise on December 20, 2018, following the cancellation of the ZAC. The cancellation of the ZAC and the PLU of Gonesse by the courts renders the construction of this station, planned to enter service in 2027, in a non-urbanized area and at a distance of 1.7 kilometers from the first homes of Gonesse obsolete. In addition, the public utility nature of the project, based mainly on the creation of the ZAC becomes non-existent. Added to these cancellations is the opening, on January 23, 2019, of a preliminary investigation by the national financial prosecutor's office, concerning irregularities in the management of markets by the Société du Grand Paris. On June 12, 2018, the Anticor association contacted the public prosecutor following the publication by the Court of Auditors of a report revealing “insufficient rigor in the management of contracts" by the Société du Grand Paris, 164 contracts having been awarded without advertising or competitive bidding while the cost of the Grand Paris Express has already increased by 51% compared to the 2013 objective. This is why it asks it to kindly indicate the measures that the Government intends to take in order, on the one hand, to cancel the building permit for the Triangle de Gonesse station and, on the other hand, to cancel the declaration of utility public of the Triangle de Gonesse development project taking into account the court decisions canceling the ZAC and the PLU.
