The Communauté de Communes Rahin et Chérimont (CCRC by its acronym in French) is a French communauté de communes created in 2003 in the eastern part of the Haute-Saône department in France.

History

[edit]

The Communauté de Communes was created by prefectoral decree on December 20, 2002.[1]

In 2010, it moved its head office to the former home of the director of the Ronchamp spinning mill. The complete restoration of this factory between 2015 and 2017 to create a center for sport, culture and crafts is the biggest project undertaken by the community, costing 5.6 million euros (52 % subsidized).[2][3]

On January 1, 2014, the previously isolated commune of Errevet joined the inter-communal grouping of 10 communes.

The law on the new territorial organization of the Republic (loi NOTRe) of August 7, 2015 stipulates that public establishments for intercommunal cooperation (EPCI) with their own tax status must have a minimum of 15,000 inhabitants, unless most of the communes making it up are located in mountain areas, for which the threshold is lowered to 5,000 inhabitants.[4][5] Rahin et Chérimont, of which only 3 communes, with a combined population of 5,942, are classified as “mountain areas”, is not affected by this derogation, and is therefore destined to merge with other intercommunal structures.

In October 2015, however, the Prefect of Haute-Saône presented a draft revision of the departmental intercommunal cooperation scheme (schéma départemental de coopération intercommunale, SDCI by its acronym in French), proposing that Belverne and Échavanne leave Rahin et Chérimont to join the Communauté de Communes du Pays d'Héricourt, and Clairegoutte and Frédéric-Fontaine to join the Communauté de Communes du Pays de Lure, thereby enabling the communauté de communes to benefit from the threshold for intercommunalities located in mountain zones.[6][7][8][9]

The final SDCI, approved by the Prefect on March 30, 2016, confirms, subject to the effective classification of Champagney and Clairegoutte in mountain zones, the departure of:

Rahin et Chérimont, whose territory has been reduced to Champagney, Échavanne, Errevet, Frahier-et-Chatebier, Frédéric-Fontaine, Plancher-Bas, Plancher-les-Mines and Ronchamp.[10]

Champagney and Clairegoutte were classified as a “mountain commune” in July 2016.[11][12]

On January 1, 2017, Belverne joined the Communauté de Communes du Pays d'Héricourt.[13]

The Massif Vosgien site, registered under the law of May 2, 1930, includes 14 Schéma de cohérence territoriale (SCOT) that have all or part of their territory within the perimeter of the Massif des Vosges.[14]

Toponymy

[edit]

The name of this community evokes the two main geographical features that make it up: the Rahin valley to the north and the Chérimont massif to the south.[15]

Community territory

[edit]

Geography

[edit]

The various communes making up this community are located in and around the Rahin valley. This valley is located in the eastern part of the Haute-Saône department in the French region of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté.[16]

Topography and landscape

[edit]
The Chérimont massif in green, beneath the blue line of the Vosges saônoises.

The area lies in a valley between the Chérimont and the southern Vosges mountains, which form a series of wooded hills and mountains. The main peaks in the landscape are Planche des Belles Filles (1,148 m), ballon Saint-Antoine (1,128 m), Roc du Plainet (807 m) and colline de Bourlémont (474 m) to the north, and Blanche Pierre (or Balcon d'Éboulet, 464 m) to the south.[17]

Hydrology

[edit]

The valley is crossed by the Rahin, which rises not far from the Col du Stalon, between the Ballon de Servance and the Ballon d'Alsace. There are also two smaller streams: the Rhien and the Beuveroux. The Haute-Saône canal is an unfinished construction.[18]

Leisure, heritage and tourism

[edit]

Transportation

[edit]

The main form of public transport is by bus, with Saônoises lines 10, 12 and 15 serving the community. The Ronchamp and Champagney stations on the Paris-Est to Mulhouse-Ville line are served by the TER Franche-Comté network, which runs services between the Vesoul and Belfort or Montbéliard stations.[20]

On April 17, 2014, the community council re-elected its president, René Grosjean, mayor of Frahier-et-Chatebier, as well as its 6 vice-presidents, who are[21]:

Tax system and budget

[edit]

The Communauté de communes is an inter-communal public body with its own tax system.

To finance the exercise of its powers, the inter-municipality levies a single business tax[1] (FPU) - the successor to the single business tax (TPU) - and equalizes resources between residential communes and those with business parks.

It also receives a subsidy from the global operating grant and collects the household waste collection fee (REOM), which finances the operation of this service.[1]

Projects and achievements

[edit]
The tourist office.

The above-mentioned competencies enable the company to generate activities whose results are now clearly identified:

  • Management of the household waste service through a fee based on household composition;
  • Financial operation of the Point Emploi Formation intercommunal (intercommunal employment and training center) attached to the Mission Locale Lure-Luxeuil-les-Bains;

  • The creation of an inter-communal business park of the Pôle de Développement Economique type, with a view to maintaining industrial activities and developing overall employment;
  • Support for the Ronchamp intercommunal tourist office and the implementation of tourism projects such as the fiftieth anniversary of the Notre-Dame-du-Haut chapel in 2005;
  • Setting up the Discovery Passport for a joint offer from the tourist sites of the Chapelle Notre-Dame-du-Haut in Ronchamp, the Marcel-Maulini Mine Museum in Ronchamp and the Maison de la Négritude et des Droits de l'Homme in Champagney;
