The election of the new Youth Municipal Council (CMJ) took place on Friday, October 9, 2026, at the Paul Fileyssant primary school in Savigneux. This event, essential for local citizenship, saw the active participation of CM1 and CM2 students eager to represent their classmates.
Under the guidance of several municipal officials, including Catherine Champet (Deputy Mayor for Youth and Inclusion), Mme Bourrin (municipal councilor), Nathalie Ferreira (CMJ referent), Chrystèle Micard, Clémentine Chabanoles (animators), and Aurélie Bardet (Head of Childhood-Youth and Culture Services), the young volunteer candidates presented their ideas.
The children, equipped with their voter cards, fulfilled their civic duty by using the voting booth before casting their ballots into the ballot box. The first installation meeting of the new council is scheduled for November 13 at 4:30 PM.
The young elected members will have the opportunity to participate in regular meetings at the town hall, a space where they can propose initiatives and see their projects take shape.
