François Piquemal, Jean-François Portarrieu and Dominique Faure, municipal and metropolitan elected officials of Toulouse, become to become deputies. Two of them will soon resign from their local mandates.

Elected officials from Toulouse and the metropolis have just recently joined the National Assembly. François Piquemal (Nupes), Jean-François Portarrieu (Together) and Dominique Faure (Together) were indeed respectively elected deputies of the 4th, 5th and 10th constituency of Haute-Garonne during the second round of the legislative elections on June 19th.

Two of them will leave their other local mandates. The candidate Together, Dominique Faure, will effectively resign from her functions as mayor of Saint-Orens and 1st vice-president in Toulouse Métropole to respect the law on the accumulation of mandates. According to the latter, a deputy cannot effectively exercise a local executive function.

The successor of Dominique Faure to the metropolis designated in October

The municipal council of Saint-Orens will elect its new mayor, among the 26 elected by the majority, on July 7. In the meantime, Dominique Faure remains at the head of the city. The member for the 10th constituency of Haute-Garonne will also “not drop” Saint-Orens. She will retain her mandate as a municipal councilor since a deputy can be elected to a municipal council without exercising an executive function.

Dominique Faure has also already submitted her resignation as 1st vice-president in charge of the economy, innovation and employment at Toulouse Métropole. It will take effect on July 19. His successor will be appointed at the next metropolitan council in October..

The post of Dominique Faure will therefore be vacant for a few months. The first vice-president will not leave Toulouse metropolis. She will then be a metropolitan councilor. “I am very attached to this function and I must ensure that my commitments are kept at the town hall and in the metropolis”, estimates Dominique Faure.

Jean-François Portarrieu also remains a municipal and metropolitan councilor. This was already the case during his previous mandate as a deputy. On the other hand, François Piquemal will leave his place. the Archipel Citoyen code of ethics specifies that “each candidate does not combine his mandate as elected municipal and metropolitan with another electoral mandate”.

The new deputy François Piquemal should soon resign

During the election campaign, the deputy of the 4th district of Haute-Garonne had also announced his desire to resign from the municipal council if he were elected. He Expected to leave city council and metropolitan council sometime in Septembertime to prepare for departure.

François Piquemal should be replaced by François Briançon. The First Federal Secretary of the Socialist Party of Haute-Garonne is indeed the next on the list of Archipel Citoyen. But a clarification must be made beforehand with the Nupes.
