Terres Touloises

What Terres Touloises does

Terres Touloises (Communauté de communes Terres Touloises, abbreviated CC2T) is a French public intercommunal cooperation establishment (établissement public de coopération intercommunale) headquartered in Écrouves, Meurthe-et-Moselle, in the Grand Est region. It serves as the local government authority coordinating public services across 20+ communes within the Toulois territory. Its portfolio of services spans waste collection and management (portail déchets), drinking water supply and sanitation (portail abonné eau), public transportation via the Colibri network, intercommunal childcare (crèches intercommunales), the Centre aquatique Ovive aquatic center, economic development support, urban planning, and employment services through the Maison de l'Emploi and Mission locale. The Maison du tourisme Terres Touloises in Toul manages visitor accommodation and stay tax (taxe de séjour) collection.

The entity operates through a hybrid physical-digital infrastructure: physical service points include the headquarters office (open Monday–Friday 8:30–12:00 / 13:30–17:00), the tourism office on Place Charles de Gaulle in Toul, the aquatic center, intercommunal crèches, déchèteries, and France Services locations. Digital channels include the official website (terrestouloises.com), the Intramuros mobile application for resident communications, email newsletters, and the printed Terres Touloises le Mag publication. Core technology is described as standard intercommunal public service infrastructure, with no disclosed AI/ML capabilities, APIs, or proprietary technology stack.

The business model is that of a French local public authority rather than a commercial enterprise. Own-source revenue streams include the tourist tax (taxe de séjour), with rates varying by accommodation classification (€1.10/night for palaces and 5-star hotels, €0.80 for 3-star hotels, €0.40 for 4–5 star campsites, and 4% capped at €1.10 for non-classified accommodations including Airbnb, Booking, and Abritel listings), plus household waste fees for waste collection services. The bulk of operating funding derives from intercommunal taxation and state transfers typical of communautés de communes. The entity reports approximately 15 employees and is governed by elected officials (élus communautaires), with no parent company, venture capital, or private equity ownership structures. Recent strategic milestones include approval of the Plan local d'urbanisme intercommunal valant programme local de l'habitat (PLUiH) in June 2023 and commissioning of the Parc solaire du Génie at Écrouves — the first participatory citizen solar park in the Grand Est region — in May 2024, in partnership with SIPEnR, ENErgic (Enercoop Nord Est), and Énergie Partagée.
