A thought for Hervé Gourdel

City on the move
The mayor mentioned the great success stories of the city of Nice like the realization of the Promenade Paillon – La Coulée Verte – the renovation of the South train station – which today are not ruins but full of life. He recalled all the awards the city of Nice received for the quality of its administration, the inventiveness of its actions, the restoration of its heritage and the thousand local projects, undertaken despite continuing reductions in subsidies from the state. In 2014, Nice won the Jury’s and the Public’s Awards in the “National Nicest Landscape”. He also mentioned his fight against the unfair and outrageous law on school rhythms.
Realized projects
In his wishes of realization, Christian Estrosi spoke of promoting the famous ski resorts of the department and welcomed the arrival of the tram running through Nice from west to east. For him, the Eco-Valley Economic development is a major future challenge to face in creating jobs for our young people, with the renovation of Cap 3000 and the construction of the largest shopping center in France, the Polygon Riviera, which will create 2,000 jobs.
The fight of a department
Christian Estrosi called to fight together for the Nice International Airport, the second in France after Charles de Gaulle one, to remain Niçois and belong to the Niçois. “Our airport is the heart of our future and our jobs! Don’t let it be sold to the only profits of investors who would not have interest in our territory. A fight that will be long and difficult, but together in 2015, everything will remain possible.” he said.
