Town hall - Local authority Nord-Pas-de-Calais

Many procedures can now be carried out directly online, on the Town Hall website. Take a look before you go to the town hall. It's also a great opportunity to discover a very comprehensive site, rich in information. Very clear, it will guide you perfectly. As for the rest, the Town Hall teams are at your disposal to answer any questions you may have and to assist you. In terms of architecture, the Unesco World Heritage-listed belfry and the rest of the building, with its Art Deco style tinged with Flemish culture, are well worth a visit.

The Northern Department is the longest department (184 km) and the most populous in France (more than 2,5 million inhabitants). It comprises 653 communes divided into 6 boroughs: Dunkirk, Lille, Valenciennes, Douai, Cambrai, Avesnes. Its budget is more than EUR 3,5 billion, which is devoted to regional planning and solidarity policies (social action and health, housing, environment, roads, infrastructure, transport, culture, tourism, RSA, APAH, PMI…). The Northern Council of the North has been chaired by Jean-René Lecerf since 2 April 2015.

The Communauté de Communes Flandre Lys groups together 8 communes and over 40,000 inhabitants. Located just a few kilometers west of Lille, the focus here is on the great outdoors, with plenty of water sports activities on and around the Lys, as well as many activities in the air. But that's not all: many other activities await you: dog sledding, brewery visits, bike rides... The promise of busy weekends for young and old alike!

ALFPH is an association dedicated to promoting civic involvement and community life in Lille. Through its Citizen Initiative Projects (PIC) scheme, financed by the City and the Region, it enables residents to set up innovative, creative and eco-responsible projects in their neighborhoods: parties, shared gardens, sports tournaments, film screenings, exhibitions, radio programs, waste reduction, storytelling, snacks, shows, know-how transfer.... An award committee examines the proposals and enables the creation of a multitude of convivial and supportive initiatives in Lille's 10 neighborhoods.

Bringing together 85 municipalities around Lille, the Métropole Européenne de Lille is dedicated to inter-municipal cooperation and the pooling of skills. It operates in many fields such as urban public transport, urban planning, tourism, waste management, economic development (support for competitiveness clusters), sports and cultural facilities and networks of Community interest, natural and landscape heritage. The MEL is thus at the initiative of major development and equipment projects, but also and above all events bringing together all Lille residents, whose talent it highlights in its latest communication campaign!

It is also possible to leave a message on the voice mailbox at 09 53 94 98 23. The town hall also offers an online form for questions about administrative procedures. For practical and regulatory reasons, data is only kept for one month. Clairmarais is a charming village with many sites to visit, such as the Notre-Dame de Lourdes grotto, the Saint Bernard church, the forest, the abbey ruins, as well as hunting, fishing and hiking.

Arras Town Hall, where you can ask questions, make comments or suggestions. The Arras town hall is an important place for the town's residents, where they can carry out various administrative procedures and obtain information on municipal services.

The village of Labourse has only 2 000 inhabitants, but its history and heritage make this place an interesting point of visit. Although its name comes from Latin - bursa, a thicket - it appears that its origin is Celtic and not Roman, even if there is certain that there is a Roman construction on these lands. Indeed, with the numerous discoveries of the bronze age, Gallo-Roman objects have been found and vestiges attesting to the presence of such a building. Once again, the operation of a mine pit attracted new inhabitants and the village grew from about inhabitants to about two thousand. Since the close of the well in 1968, the village has been able to start on new bases and now benefit from the important architectural heritage of the church and castle.

More space for a better welcome in its new premises on rue Jean Bart, the new MDA can breathe!

With free training, logistical assistance, the loan of rooms and support in setting up associations, the MDA offers free personalized support to all registered associations. During the Journée des Associations et du Bénévolat, it becomes the vibrant heart of Lille's associative fabric, organizing meetings between associations and future volunteers.
