She did not sulk his pleasure. Martine Aubry wanted to make the announcement herself yesterday, just before the council of the urban community of Lille. In the end, the stadium will cost 7.2 million euros per year fee for 31 years, the community signed a public private partnership (PPP) with Eiffage, the stage builder.
Originally, in 2008, when elected officials chose Eiffage, the financial team Mauroy arrived at a bill of 17.2 million over the same period of 31 years, after which the stadium will become property of the urban community. If Martine Aubry was careful to acknowledge paternity of the decision is up to Pierre Mauroy, "a historic decision," it does not hide it when the bill was "a little heavy." Some had also, at the time, mocked the PPP, ironically renamed "Public-Public" or "can not pay" ...
Arriving at the helm of the Metropolitan after the municipal elections of 2008, Martine Aubry, told his staff on a mission: to lower the note.
First step, go knock on the door of Daniel Percheron, President of the Regional Council and fan of football in general, and RC - Lens in particular to obtain a grant. Granted. Amount: 45 million euros, two thirds have already been paid.
Then renegotiate with Eiffage (whose boss reportedly called Jean-Marc Germain, the chief of staff of Martine Aubry "torturer" for his fierceness in the renegotiation ...) and with the LOSC that was doing rather not very expensive in the first funding package.
Also negotiating with the municipalities of Villeneuve d'Ascq Lezennes shows on taxes and property taxes and recovery of naming (the amount of royalties paid by the sponsor who gave his name to the stadium), which originally was to be taken Supported by the club Lille.
An international tender has resulted in the selection of the Sport will have to find the name (and the sponsoring company) and equipment that will handle relations with other major partners, VIP lounges and all that goes with this sponsorship. Inflows expected: at least 3.3 million euros per year.
Pawing at Daubresse
Finally, hard bargaining for the loan. "We took advantage of lower rates," said Martine Aubry, who evaluates the gain to 1.4 million euros per year.
Add the 30 million obtained from the State as part of the bid by France at Euro 2016 and we reach the 7.2 million annual fee.
Site development side, the bill will also decline. A budget of 208 million was provided for work on the Boulevard de Tournai but tenders have, again, economies. For procurement, construction companies have made proposals lower than 20% on average. Result: the share of the urban community for this work goes from 162 to 136 million.
The occasion for Martine Aubry, a helping paw on his right (political): "She now challenges the price of stadium where, in 2008, it had nevertheless voted for joy to 17.2 million per year! . And remember that Marc-Philippe Daubresse (UMP), hailed at the time "a large PPP, a great stadium, great ambition, a major city and a great president." There, Martine Aubry could not resist.
The opportunity was too belle.w
