(en) France, Alternative Libertaire AL #246 - Is?re: General
quarters in Chambarans (fr, it, pt) [machine translation]
Since 2007, a construction project of a Center Parcs in the forest Chambarans Isere is in
the works of the company Pierre et Vacances. The concept: a park that combines real estate
and natural recreation for city dwellers who want a breath of fresh air without the
drawbacks. Although the administrative court has suspended the project, the resistance
intensifies! ---- On December 23, the judge of the Grenoble Administrative Court suspended
the prefectural order authorizing the work of the project of the Center Parcs Roybon in
the Is?re, saying it violated the "water law". But his supporters will certainly not stop
there, given the political support which it is subject. ---- Indeed, this project was
launched due to the generosity of local communities to employers: 36 million euros of
public money injected into the deal ... This, in addition to selling off the company field
to 0 3 euro per square meter, while the average price is 18 euros, barely sixty times
less! But why such a sponsorship? The jobs created (2200 resulting jobs promised by the
company) and tourists are supposed to revitalize a "dead" area.
Or the 2 200 jobs in question, subtract 1500 CSD building only related to the work. Are
700, including 320 CSD seasonal activities, says the company. CDI is 380 jobs, mainly
cleaning and service activities. At the other sites, they are all contracts 12 hours per
week to 370 euros per month. Here's how the business fight against casualization
campaigns! But in 2012 the company dismissed 195 people: first the profits, of course.
What ringfenced Center Parcs with the support of elected officials, this is not "use" is
"the use of ancillary service, unskilled, part-time work, funded on public money"!
An environmental disaster
In addition, the Center Parcs would be built on a natural area of 200 hectares enclosed by
a fence 2 meters high to protect tourists from owners spend their holidays dangerous
wildlife (and surrounding villagers?). This area includes forest areas with diverse
wildlife ponds develops a natural water reservoir essential ecological and hydrometric
perspective. The public inquiry under the Water Act was unanimous unfavorable opinion
against the site. Pierre et Vacances appealed, another obscure commission validated the
project. Center Parcs and destroy 120 acres of wetlands.
The demolition began, putting opponents and historical opponents "legalistic" fait
accompli. Demonstrations have been held regularly and other forms of complementary
strengths have emerged: the MaquiZad was born in Roybon on 30 November. [ 1 ]
The mobilization takes an unprecedented scale, but the support for the project are not
passive: elected PS FN multiply common actions. A strong propaganda oriented blackmail
employment and risk minimization, is combined with ideological statements of Pierre et
Vacances, MEDEF, CFDT and other antisocial defectors. If their lies were unmasked, even
the inhabitants and residents and the most committed es workers for the project would
become aware that we have everyone fooled es in the case.
More than ever, the fight should help permanently stop the construction as much as it
needs to be a cultural response to even convince inhabitants, residents, workers, another
common future is possible without Center Parcs!
