French regions launch public inquiries for urban planning revisions

Public inquiries have been launched for the revision of Territorial Coherence Schemes (SCoT) in two French regions to define long-term development and land-use strategies.

In the Pays de Vitré region, the Syndicat d’Urbanisme du Pays de Vitré (SUPV) is conducting an inquiry from September 28 to October 28, 2026. The SCoT serves as a strategic urban planning document for 62 communes, setting orientations for housing, economic development, mobility, and ecological transitions through 2046. The inquiry includes several in-person sessions across various municipalities to collect public observations.

Simultaneously, the Cœur du Faucigny region is holding its public inquiry from September 7 to October 9, 2026. This SCoT revision aims to organize housing, economic growth, biodiversity protection, and soil consumption management. The project can be consulted online or in person at the Syndicat Mixte du SCoT Cœur du Faucigny headquarters and local community offices.
