Mairie de Beaucouze

What Mairie de Beaucouze does

Mairie de Beaucouzé (legal name: Commune de Beaucouzé) is the municipal government of the commune of Beaucouzé, located in the Maine-et-Loire department of the Pays de la Loire region in France, within the Angers Loire Métropole intercommunality. As a territorial collectivity under French public law, it administers the full range of local public services for approximately 5,500 residents, led by Mayor Yves Colliot. The municipality operates through a hybrid service delivery model combining physical points of presence (the Town Hall at 1 Esplanade de la Liberté, Maison des Solidarités et des Familles, Maison de l'Enfance, Médiathèque Anita Conti, MCL cultural venue, Grange Dîmière exhibition hall, two sports complexes, the Couz'éO aquatic center, and community halls) with digital portals including espace-citoyens.net for family services, the agenda platform, Weezevent for cultural ticketing, and CityAll for citizen issue reporting.

Its core service portfolio spans administrative procedures (identity documents via ANTS integration, civil status, urban planning via GNAU, elections), social action through the CCAS (financial aid, food assistance via Banque Alimentaire, senior mobility, solidarity transport), early childhood and youth services (Portail Famille enrollment, leisure centers, MJA programs), a cultural season at MCL with subscription-based ticketing (€69 for 7 shows or €38 for 3 shows), extensive sports infrastructure, and citizen participation mechanisms including participatory budgeting, Conseil des Sages, CMJ, and CME. Revenue is generated primarily through local taxation (taxe foncière, taxe d'habitation, CFE), state subsidies and intergovernmental transfers from the French state, the Maine-et-Loire Department, and Angers Loire Métropole, supplemented by cultural subscriptions, facility rentals, and the Taxe Locale sur la Publicité Extérieure.

The municipality's go-to-market is direct-to-citizen, with no commercial sales motion. Strategic priorities visible in recent activity include the construction of a new Centre Technique Municipal (€2,896,000 HT, completion 2027), the Coeur de Ville urban redevelopment project, three EcoQuartier Step 2 certifications (Les Echats, Le Coeur de Ville, Les Hauts du Couzé), the 35,000-tree 'Forêt qui pousse' urban forest, and sustained cultural programming including the La Couzette summer festival and the 2026-2027 cultural season.
