Until the presidential election, we invite you to participate each week in thematic debates, enriched with testimonies and reports. To animate these debates, we have decided to rely on 30 great witnesses who live, live and work in our region. They are retired, salaried, head of department, guide, social worker, student, accountant, optician in charge of business, teacher… Women, men from the Rhône, the Loire, the Haute-Loire, who have agreed to become the great witnesses of this presidential election for Le Progrès.
By joining the work of our editorial staff during the weeks that separate us from the first round of April 10, our Great Witnesses can thus, in our newspaper (every Tuesday) and on leprogres.fr, express their ideas, their opinions and their sentiments on the themes that run through the campaign. Debate, testify, give their opinion on the proposals of such and such a candidate.
Some of them meet the candidates within the framework of “Face aux electors” that we organize, as has already been the case with Marine Le Pen, Fabien Roussel, Nicolas Dupont-Aignan, Yannick Jadot or Eric Zemmour.
You too, alongside these great witnesses, are invited to discuss these themes on leprogres.fr. Our new component developed today, “Should individual houses be limited to promote collective housing?” highlights the paradox of the city of Lyon, whose ecological municipality must reflect on urban densification while respecting its line of conduct: the living environment. We also take you to the Loire, where the fight against soil artificialization puts an end to several individual house projects.

Barring an improbable miracle, the 2022 presidential election will have no effect on the endemic housing crisis that we have known for forty years. In the projections, Philippe Layec, president of the Federation of Real Estate Developers (FPI) of the Lyon region, can only confirm this reality, since after a supply of housing, which fell between 2017 and 2021 in the Lyon metropolitan area, he is still seeing an inevitable decline in 2022, and “very likely” in the years to come.
Not really enough to bet on the densification of the Metropolis in the next three years, “because we do not have enough new projects, we have difficulty obtaining building permits, the offer is therefore insufficient” , he regrets.

Jura: the fight against urban sprawl bothers elected officials
The daily Le Monde recently published a survey on logistics “which is reshaping the countryside, with nearly 87 million square meters of warehouses throughout the country”.
“Everything is almost voted unanimously, except for an ecologist, who regularly reminds us of the proper use of land”, testifies in the article the president of the Seine-Eure agglomeration community, a particularly impacted region.
This is exactly what happened on March 17, during the last Grand Dole community council, before elected officials voted to sell a 106,550 m² plot of land in the Rochefort-sur-Nenon area.
