Saint-Lô Agglo

What Saint-Lô Agglo does

Saint-Lô Agglo is a French public intercommunal authority (communauté d'agglomération, EPCI à fiscalité propre) established in 2017 and headquartered at 70 rue du Neufbourg, Saint-Lô, in the Manche department of Normandy. It is governed by a community council composed of elected representatives from its 61 member communes and operates under the Code général des collectivités territoriales. The authority delivers mandated and discretionary public services to residents and businesses across its territory — waste collection and management, water and aquatic-environment services, public transport (SLAM bus and on-demand transit), spatial planning (PLUi), and operated facilities including the Centre Aquatique Saint-Lô Agglo.

Its service portfolio is organized around four pillars: (i) daily-life public services to citizens (waste, water, mobility, sport, enfance/jeunesse, habitat); (ii) economic development support for local TPE/PME, anchored by Pôle Agglo21 (coworking, offices, Fablab), Atelier21 (agri-food workshops), and the ACDCA subsidy program co-funded with Région Normandie, Département de la Manche, CCI Ouest Normandie and CMA Manche at €582,000 annually; (iii) youth housing through three Foyers des Jeunes Travailleurs, the 120-unit Résidence Étudiants Michel Lelandais, and the in-house CLLAJ service integrated in January 2024; and (iv) digital self-service tools including Mes Démarches en Ligne, the interactive Carte, e-carte KioskAgglo, and Campus Connecté. The underlying technology stack consists of publicly hosted web portals, a geographic information system with interactive mapping, and administrative workflows; no proprietary AI/ML systems are disclosed.

The entity is funded almost entirely through local taxation (taxe foncière, CFE, etc.), state and regional subsidies, and European funds, with modest fee-based revenue from housing rentals (€150–€550/month), coworking/office leases at Pôle Agglo21 (€195–€900/month), and concession fees on the public domain. No revenue or budget totals are publicly disclosed. Customer-facing channels combine the headquarters (open Monday–Friday), the youth housing office on rue Michel Brodon, three FJT hostels, the student residence, and the digital portal; marketing and stakeholder communication run through the institutional website, Facebook/LinkedIn/Instagram, the quarterly Agglomag magazine, public consultations, and community council events. Governance oversight rests with the préfet de la Manche, the Région, and the Département; there is no parent company or private ownership structure.
