The Paris Administrative Court of Appeal ordered Wednesday, March 9 the judgment ” without delay » work on the training pool in Aubervilliers (Seine-Saint-Denis) for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, almost a month after having invalidated the local urban plan allowing the partial destruction of allotment gardens. “ The decision of the municipality of Aubervilliers (Seine-Saint-Denis) not to interrupt and to continue the execution of the construction works of the nautical center (…) is suspended “, Which leads to “ stop all work without delay “, ordered the judge in chambers in an order. This decision is the logical follow-up to that rendered on February 10, in which this competent body in disputes related to Olympic works, had asked to preserve these centenary gardens. Several plots have already been destroyed by diggers to build additional equipment for the swimming pool (solarium, mineral beach, etc.). The Court had thus enjoined the Plaine Commune intermunicipality, chaired by the socialist Mathieu Hanotin, to review the local intermunicipal urban plan which had been modified to authorize the urbanization of these squares of greenery. Despite this court decision, nothing had changed. The site continued its work, the communities concerned considering that the building permit was not called into question.
