On a rajeuni de 75 ans<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>!<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>\u00bb<\/i> La capacit\u00e9 de d\u00e9sendettement du D\u00e9partement de l\u2019H\u00e9rault \u00e9tant pass\u00e9e de 100 \u00e0 25 ans, Philippe Vidal (PS) fait mine de se r\u00e9jouir. Mais le maire de Cazouls-les-B\u00e9ziers qui, lundi 16\u00a0f\u00e9vrier, rempla\u00e7ait le vice-pr\u00e9sident aux finances (Cyril Meunier gripp\u00e9) lors du d\u00e9bat d\u2019orientation budg\u00e9taire, ne s\u2019enflamme pas, sachant l\u2019indicateur marginal. \u00ab<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>La situation reste tr\u00e8s fragile car notre autofinancent <\/i>(35,3\u00a0millions d\u2019euros) ne comble pas le remboursement de la dette <\/i>(52,8 ME)\u00a0<\/i>\u00bb<\/i>.<\/p>\n

Pire\u00a0: l\u2019\u00e9pargne nette est d\u00e9sormais n\u00e9gative (-17,5\u00a0millions d\u2019euros). Ainsi, chuchote le pr\u00e9sident Kl\u00e9ber Mesquida (DVG), aphone, \u00ab<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>c\u2019est inqui\u00e9tant car on doit emprunter pour rembourser<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>\u00bb<\/i>. Tr\u00e8s pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment 105 ME pour parvenir \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9quilibre tandis que l\u2019encours de la dette culmine \u00e0 888,8 ME.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Ainsi le budget 2026 (1,664 milliard d\u2019euros) qui sera vot\u00e9 les 30-31 mars, sera dans la m\u00eame \u00ab<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>sobri\u00e9t\u00e9<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>\u00bb<\/i> que celui de 2025 qui avait \u00e9t\u00e9 boucl\u00e9 au prix de coupes et d\u2019efforts in\u00e9dits. \u00ab<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>Ne pas reconduire des contrats, cela a \u00e9t\u00e9 un cr\u00e8ve-c\u0153ur<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>\u00bb<\/i>, rappelle Philippe Vidal. \u00ab<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>Un grand merci aux agents qui ont accept\u00e9 d\u2019\u00e9voluer dans les services<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>\u00bb<\/i>, salue Claudine Vassas-Meijri (PS), pr\u00e9sidente d\u2019un jour.<\/p>\n

Gr\u00e2ce au regain des ventes immobili\u00e8res g\u00e9n\u00e9rant des recettes en hausse (295,8 ME soit +22% en 2025 et 310 ME esp\u00e9r\u00e9s en 2026), \u00ab<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>on a r\u00e9ussi \u00e0 retrouver quelques marges de man\u0153uvre<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>\u00bb<\/i>, positive Renaud Calvat (PS). De quoi continuer \u00e0 assumer les d\u00e9penses sociales obligatoires (RSA 280ME), Aide sociale \u00e0 l\u2019enfance (186,2ME, Allocation personnalis\u00e9e d\u2019autonomie 172,5ME, Prestation handicap 100,6ME). Et m\u00eame s\u2019assumer certains investissements n\u00e9cessaires (total 174,4\u00a0ME) dans les routes (50,2\u00a0ME), les coll\u00e8ges (30,7 ME), le patrimoine et les domaines (18,2\u00a0ME). Sans oublier les impr\u00e9vus. \u00ab<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>Les d\u00e9g\u00e2ts de la temp\u00eate ont d\u00e9j\u00e0 co\u00fbt\u00e9 5 ME<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>\u00bb<\/i>, d\u00e9plore Philippe Vidal. Les aides aux conchyliculteurs et aux projets prioritaires des intercommunalit\u00e9s seront maintenues.<\/p>\n

Une situation \u00ab<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>trop fragile<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>\u00bb <\/i>pour que l\u2019opposition envisage l\u2019avenir avec enthousiasme. \u00ab<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>On aimerait que l\u2019\u00e9claircie soit plus longue et que le brouillard se dissipe durablement<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>\u00bb<\/i>, illustre Brice Bonnefoux (LR) qui r\u00e9clame \u00e0 l\u2019\u00c9tat une r\u00e9forme territoriale. C\u00f4t\u00e9 extr\u00eame droite, Jean-Louis Respaud r\u00eave de plus d\u2019aust\u00e9rit\u00e9. \u00ab<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>Nous payons aussi des d\u00e9penses qui auraient pu \u00eatre limit\u00e9es dans les ann\u00e9es pr\u00e9c\u00e9dentes<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>\u00bb<\/i>. L\u2019\u00c9tat qui doit 1,2\u00a0milliard d\u2019euros \u00e0 la collectivit\u00e9 h\u00e9raultaise est pourtant le premier fautif, rappelle Patricia Weber. \u00ab<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>Les D\u00e9partements sont en premi\u00e8re ligne de la solidarit\u00e9 nationale qui n\u2019est pas au rendez-vous de nos financements.<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>\u00bb<\/i><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On a rajeuni de 75 ans ! » La capacité de désendettement du Département de l’Hérault étant passée de 100 à 25 ans, Philippe Vidal (PS) fait mine de se réjouir.
