The Communauté de Communes du Pays de Lure (CCPL by its acronym in French) is a collective of 23 municipalites located in the French department of Haute-Saône.
History
[edit]The communauté de communes was created by prefectoral decree on December 16, 1998,:[1] bringing together 8 communes and 12,800 inhabitants.[2] On January 1, 2001, Faymont, until then a member of the Communauté de Communes du Pays de Villersexel, joined the intercommunality,[3] whose territory comprised twenty communes in 2002, 21 communes in 2003 and 22 communes in 2007[2] (with Vy-lès-Lure).[4]
Under the provisions of the 2011 departmental intercommunal cooperation plan, the communes d'Amblans and de Genevreuille, previously members of the Communauté de Communes des Franches-Communes, joined the CCPL on January 1, 2013.[5]
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 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. To enable the Communauté de Communes Rahin et Chérimont (CCRC) to be classified as a mountain area and benefit from the corresponding derogation, in October 2015 the Prefect of Haute-Saône presented a draft revision of the schéma départemental de coopération intercommunale (Departmental Intercommunal Cooperation Scheme, SDCI by its acronym in French), proposing in particular that Clairegoutte and Frédéric-Fontaine leave the CCRC to join the Pays de Lure.[5][6]
The final SDCI, approved by the Prefect on March 30, 2016, confirms, subject to the effective classification of Champagney and Clairegoutte as mountain areas, the departure from the Communauté de Communes Rahin et Chérimont of the communes of:
- Clairegoutte and Frédéric-Fontaine, to join the Communauté de Communes du Pays de Lure ;
- Échavanne, to join Pays d'Héricourt; and
- the integration of Rahin et Chérimont, with its territory reduced to Champagney, Échavanne, Errevet, Frahier-et-Chatebier, Frédéric-Fontaine, Plancher-Bas, Plancher-les-Mines, and Ronchamp.[7]
This merger would take effect on January 1, 2017, after formal consultation of the municipal and community councils concerned.
Champagney and Clairegoutte were classified as “mountain municipalities” in July 2016.[8][9]
On January 1, 2023, Malbouhans will leave the communauté de communes to join the Communauté de Communes des Mille Étangs (CCME by its acronym in French).[10]
Community territory
[edit]Geography
[edit]The Communauté de Communes du Pays de Lure lies to the south of Luxeuil, in the north-east of Haute-Saône, on the Ognon plain. Lure is some fifteen kilometers from the Vosges mountains. The lands of the communauté de communes are grouped around Lure, in an elongated shape running north-south. A distinction is made between Lure-Nord and Lure-Sud.[11]
Topography and landscape
[edit]Unlike the Vosges Saônoises to the north, the area over which the communauté de communes extends is generally flat, although the soil can occupy long slopes. Hills and minor drops never exceeding forty meters are scattered here and there across the landscape, such as the Vouhenans hillock or Mont Gédry in Arpenans.[12]
Vast plains are present along the east-west axis, allowing for farming.

Saint-Germain and the Vosges saônoises donate the Ballon de Servance.
Hydrology
[edit]The river Ognon crosses the region from north-east to south-west. Various tributaries flow into it, notably the Rahin, which flows through La Côte. Various infiltrations of the Ognon give rise to resurgences, such as at Lac de la Fond, in front of the Sous-Préfecture, giving rise to the Reigne. The resurgence of the Noireaud merges with the Bourbier. Other watercourses also exist, such as the Ruisseau Notre-Dame.[13]
The Grande Pile peat bog in Saint-Germain is a reference point for the climatic history of Western Europe. It provides a record of climatic fluctuations over the last 135,000 years. It also boasts a rich diversity of wetlands, with all the evolutionary phases of a peat bog represented. It is also home to rare and endangered species.[14]

Leisure activities
[edit]Lure offers a wide range of cultural activities, including cinema, library, and theater. There is also a wide range of sporting activities, both free and for a fee, such as horse-riding at one of Lure's major riding schools, and wall climbing. The artificial ponds of “la Saline”, formed by the quarrying of aggregates and closed to swimming, are particularly popular in summer. They are surrounded by well-maintained footpaths lining the Ognon towards Vouhenans, as well as a large children's playground and a bar-restaurant;[15] a nautical base with a tourist office was set up on the other side of the road in 2015.[16] In summer, fishing is possible in some of these ponds. Nearby, there's a French Equestrian Federation (Fédération française d'équitation, FFE by its acronym in French) certified riding school and a three-star campsite.[17]
Transport
[edit]Two expressways serve Lure and the surrounding area. The RN19 runs east-west (Vesoul-Héricourt), providing rapid access to the surrounding villages. The D64 provides access to Luxeuil-les-Bains. Numerous secondary and tertiary roads dating from before the four-lane railway link the villages together. Footpaths criss-cross the forests, and the paths between the fields, the final link in the transport network, allow you to wander almost anywhere.
Lure station is at the junction of the Paris-Est to Mulhouse-Ville line and the Blainville - Damelevières to Lure line.[18]
Economy
[edit]Knauf Group, in La Côte, manufactures ceiling tiles and insulation panels based on wood wool.[19]
Valmetal, also based in La Côte, France's leading manufacturer of street sweepers and scrubbers. Faurecia, based in Magny-Vernois, a subcontractor to the automotive industry which produces car seats, notably for Peugeot, and employs over 550 people. It is a Seveso-classified site.[20]

Tax system and budget
[edit]The Communauté de communes is an inter-communal public body with its tax system. To finance the exercise of its powers, it 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 collects the household waste collection fee (REOM), which finances the operation of this service[1], and pays a community solidarity grant[30] (DSC) to its member communes.[1]
Projects and achievements
[edit]In accordance with legal provisions, the purpose of a communauté de communes is to bring together “communes within an area of solidarity, with a view to drawing up a common development and spatial planning project”.[31]

We started out with eight communes, well supported by the town and working very closely with Michel,” he explains. “We all put in a lot of effort, and gradually the CCPL came to be what it is, built around this unifying core.]
