What communaute de communes de thann cernay does

Communauté de communes de Thann-Cernay (CCTC) is a French public intercommunal authority (Établissement public de coopération intercommunale à fiscalité propre) created on 1 January 2013 through the merger of the Communauté de Communes de Cernay et Environs and the Communauté de Communes du Pays de Thann. The organisation pools public-service responsibilities across 16 communes in the Haut-Rhin department of Alsace (Grand Est), serving a population of approximately 32,000-35,000 residents in the Thur valley and southern Alsace. It is governed by elected officials from the member communes, led by President François Horny (also Mayor of Aspach-Michelbach), with a staff of 101-250 employees and headquarters at 3a rue de l'Industrie, Cernay.

CCTC's service portfolio spans water supply and sanitation (direct management for the Cernay sector, affermage delegation to SUEZ for the Thann sector, and partnership with SIAEP de la Doller and SMABVD for the Aspach sector), early childhood care (143 collective places across 8 establishments, including the directly managed Crèche La Farandole in Cernay and three facilities operated by Centre socioculturel du Pays de Thann), public lighting (~7,245 light points, 259 control cabinets), urban planning and housing (PLH, ANAH-linked renovation aid, Procivis interest-free loans via ADIL 68), cultural and sports facilities (two pools, media libraries, the Relais Culturel Intercommunal, the Arts'Thur agenda, the Com'Une magazine), waste management, tourism promotion, and economic development (business parks, the Pôle ENR renewable energy incubator, the Embarcadère business nursery, and a 3-year EUND environmental programme targeting 280 businesses with the Agence de l'eau Rhin-Meuse).

Revenue is derived from intercommunal taxation (fiscalité propre), regulated service tariffs for water, sanitation, and childcare, and public subsidies from national and regional agencies (Agence de l'eau Rhin-Meuse, ANAH, Ademe/Région Alsace via OKTAVE). Distribution relies on a mix of in-person service counters (headquarters, commune mairies, dedicated facilities), an online portal for administrative procedures and payments, delegated operators (SUEZ, Centre socioculturel du Pays de Thann), and printed/digital communications. CCTC does not operate a proprietary technology product and uses standard digital channels (institutional website, social media, online payments).

Revenue model

1. Taxation and intercommunal levies: As a communauté de communes, CCTC's primary revenue derives from fiscal contributions (taxes) levied on its territory's residents and businesses. This is supplemented by service fees (water, sanitation, childcare) and government subsidies.
2. Water and sanitation service fees: CCTC charges households and businesses for water supply and wastewater treatment services. Billing is handled either directly by CCTC (in the Cernay sector managed in-house) or through delegated operator SUEZ (in the Thann sector). Fees cover water consumption and wastewater services.
3. Childcare fees (crèche La Farandole): The multi-accueil La Farandole in Cernay charges families for childcare services, providing regular or occasional childcare from 7h30 to 18h15. Fees are based on family income and number of children.
