48 contracts signed in 2025 · €6.4M before tax

Why this total differs from the €5.7M paid to companies

These are the amounts of the contracts signed in the year, over their whole length, not what was paid. The money paid in a year also goes to older contracts and to purchases too small to be published (under €40,000 excl. VAT). For a framework agreement, the amount is a ceiling.

Investment and works

€3.9M of capital spending in 2025 (building, renovation, equipment), €131 per resident. Town groupings of the same size: €90.

On top of that, €1.4M paid to other bodies for their own equipment (towns, intercommunalities, associations…).
