On October 1st, EPF Auvergne convened its new delegates at the Conference Center of the Grande Halle d’Auvergne for its installation General Assembly. This meeting marks the launch of the 2026-2032 term and a new phase in the institution's governance. 237 titular delegates and their substitutes, appointed by member communities and EPCIs, will represent their territories over the next six years.
Following a presentation of EPF Auvergne, its missions, and its support for member communities and EPCIs, delegates elected the new Board of Directors, comprising 34 titular administrators and their substitutes. The list led by Hervé Prononce, Mayor of Le Cendre and President of Clermont Auvergne Métropole, was elected with 95% of the votes.
After this election, the new Board of Directors convened to elect its leadership: Hervé PRONONCE (Clermont Auvergne Métropole – 63) was elected President of EPF Auvergne. Tony BERNARD (Thiers Dore et Montagne – 63) is the 1st Vice-President, Karen JOUVHOMME (Le Puy en Velay Communauté – 43) the 2nd Vice-President, Benoît FAIVRE (Moulins Communauté – 03) the 3rd Vice-President, Françoise FOURNIVAL (Pays de Salers – 15) the 4th Vice-President, Christophe DUMONT (Vichy Communauté – 03) the 5th Vice-President, and Sébastien GUILLOT (Combrailles Sioule et Morge – 63) the 6th Vice-President.
Delegates then participated in a forum dedicated to discovering the services and professions of EPF Auvergne. Staff members presented their areas of intervention and the forms of support offered to members. An exhibition on land sobriety, in partnership with the DREAL Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, also complemented this exchange.
