What Ville de Vernon (27200) does

Ville de Vernon is a French municipal commune located in the Eure department of Normandy, situated on the Seine between Paris and Rouen. It serves a population of approximately 25,000 residents and operates as a local government entity providing a standard suite of municipal services including education, cultural programming, sports facilities, public safety, urban planning, and administrative services. The commune is governed by Mayor François Ouzilleau (re-elected in March 2026 with 59.54% of first-round votes) and employs approximately 235 staff, with First Deputy Mayor Sébastien Lecornu also serving as Prime Minister of France.

The commune has invested in a digital infrastructure stack including the Vernon Connect citizen portal (launched 2025), SMS alert systems, a 183-camera municipal video protection network with AI-enabled computer vision for detecting illegal dumping, and a Guichet Numérique Unique for online urban planning applications. It also operates a digital identity certification service and an online complaint-filing platform. Operational certifications include ISO 9001 (quality management) and the "Villes et Villages Fleuris" 4th-flower designation, plus "Ville Prudente" recognition for road safety. As a public-sector entity, it does not generate commercial revenue; it is funded through local taxation, state transfers, intercommunal contributions from Seine Normandie Agglomération, and participatory budget allocations (€100,000 annually) plus targeted capital outlays such as €1 million per year for road resurfacing.
