COMMUNE DE COMBLOUX

What COMMUNE DE COMBLOUX does

COMMUNE DE COMBLOUX is a French municipal government entity (commune) located in Combloux, Haute-Savoie, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, governed by Mayor Claude CHAMBEL and administered by Directrice générale des Services Amandine Chevenier. The commune serves a resident population, seasonal tourists, cross-border workers commuting to Geneva, local businesses, and community associations by delivering statutory local public services including civil administration, urban planning, water distribution, sanitation oversight, family/education services, social action, and event venue rental.

The commune's digital service stack includes an online urban planning permit portal (Guichet Numérique des Autorisations d'Urbanisme, hosted on the third-party pu.rgd.fr platform), the Citykomi real-time municipal alert mobile application, the PayFip government payment gateway for water bills and other fees, and an accessibility toolbar compliant with the French RGAA framework (77.9% compliance rate per audit). Physical infrastructure comprises seven rentable facilities — the Salle Hors-Sac event venue, Salle Arc-en-Ciel association house, three rooms at the Office de Tourisme, and two parking lots (Parking de la Cry and Parking de l'Office de Tourisme) — plus a municipal water distribution service (Service des eaux) and delegated wastewater management through the SIABS intercommunal syndicate. The web platform is built on WordPress CMS, hosted by OVH, and developed/maintained by Nantes-based agency Creasit.

The commune's revenue mechanics are entirely non-commercial and statutory, derived from tourist tax (taxe de séjour) collected on a progressive scale from 0.20 to 4.00 EUR per person per night depending on accommodation classification, water tariffs combining fixed fees and consumption-based volumetric charges, one-time rental fees for the seven municipal venues (e.g., 1,250 EUR for a wedding weekend at the 1st-floor Office de Tourisme room), parking rentals, and intergovernmental compensation including the 3.5% Fonds Genevois cross-border levy administered under the 1973 Franco-Swiss agreement. Service distribution is direct-to-resident via the physical town hall counter (132 route de la Mairie), the 24/7 online portal, and intercommunal partner SIABS; the go-to-market is not commercial — residents have no alternative service provider for most functions, while tourists and businesses interact through transactional touchpoints such as the tax declaration platform (plateforme.3douest.com).
