Syndicat de Communes Ile Napoléon

What Syndicat de Communes Ile Napoléon does

The Syndicat de Communes de l'Ile Napoléon (SCIN) is a French public-law intercommunal syndicate ("syndicat de communes à la carte") established by prefectural decree No. 2009-337-10 of December 3, 2009, effective January 1, 2010. It serves eight member communes in the Haut-Rhin department of Alsace — Baldersheim, Battenheim, Dietwiller, Habsheim, Illzach, Riedisheim, Rixheim, and Sausheim — covering approximately 107 km² with a population of around 58,000 inhabitants. The syndicate is governed by a 24-member comité syndical (three delegates per commune) under President Pierre LOGEL, with a permanent administrative staff led by Directeur général des services Laurent BENGOLD and Directeur des services techniques Jean-Philippe HERTZOG.

SCIN's core services fall into a portfolio of "à la carte" municipal competences delegated by its member communes. These include design, construction, and maintenance of communal roads, rural paths, and public lighting (Services de voirie); construction, renovation, and major repairs of public municipal buildings (Construction et réhabilitation de bâtiments communaux); operation of leisure centers and youth support activities delivered through three partner associations (Les Copains d'Abord, L'Ile aux Copains, La Passerelle); maintenance of cycling paths and mixed pedestrian-cycling itineraries; processing of urban planning permits and work-compliance verification; procurement and management of shared equipment and machinery; and promotion of ICT across the territory. Support services include engineering offices for road and building projects and a legal service available to member communes. The organization also develops and operates recreational areas including the Colline de Jeux de Sausheim.

SCIN has no commercial revenue model; it is a public administrative body funded by contributions from its eight member communes, and services are delivered to those communes rather than sold on a market basis. Its only technology infrastructure is a public-information website (sc-ilenapoleon.fr) maintained by Illicoweb, with no AI/ML capabilities, no proprietary technology products, no APIs, and no commercial software offerings. Operational and regulatory relationships extend to regional governmental bodies including Mulhouse Alsace Agglomération, the Collectivité Européenne d'Alsace, and the Préfecture du Haut-Rhin, and the entity is registered with the CNIL for data-protection compliance under French law 78-17.

Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Bordeaux Métropole: A French métropole structure exercising shared municipal competencies on behalf of its member communes. While significantly larger and operating in a different region, it provides a useful structural peer for understanding how large intercommunal bodies pool compétences for voirie, bâtiments, and urbanisme.
• Métropole du Grand Paris: A French intercommunal métropole governing 131 communes in the Paris region. While far larger than SCIN, it represents the upper bound of French intercommunal cooperation and is relevant for understanding how delegated compétences are structured at scale.
• Nantes Métropole: A French intercommunal métropole with shared services spanning transport, urbanisme, and public infrastructure. Provides structural precedent for how intercommunal pools can evolve from small syndicats toward larger entities.
• Rennes Métropole: A French intercommunal métropole providing shared services across 43 communes. Comparable to SCIN as a model of intercommunal pooling for infrastructure and urban planning, though at significantly greater scale.
• Toulouse Métropole: A French intercommunal métropole with delegated compétences across voirie, urbanisme, and public buildings. Like SCIN, it pools resources for member communes, but at a much larger scale, providing a structural analogue for the syndicate model.
• Eurométropole de Strasbourg: A larger Alsatian intercommunal structure (métropole) governing 33 communes around Strasbourg. Comparable to SCIN in delivering shared municipal services, but at significantly greater scale and with broader compétences, including economic development and large-scale urban planning.
• Lille Métropole (Mel): A French métropole pooling municipal compétences across 95 communes. Functions as a structural peer to SCIN in the sense of demonstrating how intercommunal cooperation centralizes services that smaller communes cannot deliver independently.
• Grenoble-Alpes-Métropole: A French intercommunal authority pooling municipal services across 49 communes. It is comparable to SCIN as a model of intercommunal service pooling (voirie, bâtiments, jeunesse), though operating at metropolitan scale.

Direct peers

• Mulhouse Alsace Agglomération (m2A): The larger intercommunal authority (communauté d'agglomération) covering 39 communes in the Mulhouse basin, including several SCIN member communes. Both are French intercommunal structures delivering shared municipal services within the same geographic region, with overlapping areas of competency (voirie, bâtiments, urbanisme).

Regional players

• Collectivité Européenne d'Alsace: The departmental-level authority (collectivité territoriale) overseeing Haut-Rhin and Bas-Rhin, with which SCIN coordinates for legislative and funding purposes. It functions as a higher-tier administrative peer in the same territorial governance structure.
