What Communauté de Communes de la cote d'albâtre does

The Communauté de Communes de la Côte d'Albâtre is a French public intercommunal establishment (Établissement Public de Coopération Intercommunale, EPCI à fiscalité propre) headquartered at 48 bis Route de Veulettes in Cany-Barville, Normandy. Founded in 2002 and currently governed by a 2020-2026 mandate under President Jérôme L'Heureux, the entity groups 63 communes across 387.5 km² serving 27,931 inhabitants, with 86 titular community councilors, 57 substitutes, 13 Vice-Presidents, and approximately 80 staff. The organization delivers a comprehensive portfolio of transferred public competencies, including three multi-accueil childcare facilities (80+ places, Ecolo Crèches certified), five ALSH leisure centers, youth services (PAJ, SIJ), two Intercommunal Health Centers with six doctors, waste management (three déchetteries, selective collection, home composting), water and sanitation (delegated to Eaux d'Albâtre for 50 communes and Veolia for 4 communes), sports and recreation (Centre Nautique, Lac de Caniel 70-hectare base, aquatic center managed by Vert Marine), the Conservatoire de la Côte d'Albâtre (music, dance, theater on two sites), school transport (100+ stops), and administrative services via three France Services-labeled public spaces and the GNAU digital urban-planning portal covering 31 communes. The organization also operates Chalet Sunset in La Clusaz (Alps), a 22-room 2-star vacation village.

The underlying technology stack is non-proprietary and administrative: Ganesha CMS, Google Analytics, OpenStreetMap for territorial mapping, GNAU for urban planning permits, and the Portail Familles online portal for childcare and leisure enrollment/payments. No API, SDK, AI/ML, or proprietary software assets are disclosed. Revenue is generated through five principal streams: (1) local taxation (property tax, business tax, etc.) and intergovernmental transfers from the 63 communes and higher-level government; (2) income-based sliding-scale service fees for childcare, conservatory (from €82/year), youth membership (€16.50-20/year), and leisure centers; (3) tourism and recreation revenue from Lac de Caniel activities and Chalet Sunset La Clusaz stays using three-tier income-based pricing; (4) delegated water and sanitation contracts supervised by the entity; and (5) household waste fees and environmental levies funding waste collection and treatment. The go-to-market is direct-to-public-sector via physical service points, online portals, elected governance (86 councilors), and the website cote-albatre.fr, with no commercial sales motion. Customer segments consist of (1) the 27,931 residents of the territory (primary), (2) registered territorial associations (~associations supported via Guid'Asso Information label), and (3) local businesses and tourism operators receiving zone infrastructure, financial aid, and promotion support.

Others

• Vert Marine: French operator of aquatic and leisure facilities under public delegation contracts. Already partners with CCCA to manage La Vallée pool in Cany-Barville — comparable as the outsourced operational layer behind CCCA's aquatic/leisure service line.
• Suez: Major French water and waste management services group operating delegated municipal contracts across France. Comparable as an alternative operator to Veolia for the same delegated water/sanitation and waste services CCCA manages across its 63 communes.
• Veolia: Global environmental services group managing water and sanitation infrastructure under public delegation contracts. Already partners with CCCA for 4 communes; comparable as the type of large utility operator CCCA depends on for delegated municipal services.

Broad incumbents

• Métropole Rouen Normandie: Larger intercommunal structure in the same Seine-Maritime department, providing a comprehensive range of municipal services (transport, waste, economic development, culture) to ~500,000 residents. Directly comparable as a French EPCI but operates at significantly greater scale and budget.
• Communauté urbaine Le Havre Seine Métropole: Major intercommunal authority in Seine-Maritime covering ~270,000 residents across the Le Havre coastal basin. Comparable as a French EPCI delivering multi-service municipal competencies, including the same type of delegated water/sanitation and waste services.

Direct peers

• Communauté de communes de la Région d'Yvetot: Intercommunal structure in the broader Pays de Caux area of Seine-Maritime serving a comparable rural population with a similar portfolio of municipal competencies. Most direct peer in terms of size, service mix, and rural Norman context.

Regional players

• Communauté d'agglomération de Fécamp: Neighboring coastal intercommunal structure along the Norman coastline with similar tourism, fishing, and rural-coastal service profile. Directly comparable in service mix (childcare, waste, water, culture) but operates in an adjacent geographic territory.
