Decision of the Executive Council of July 16, 2026

The executive council is a decision-making body that deliberates on the current affairs of the Collectivité ranging from the allocation of subsidies to associations to the allocation of exceptional aid and scholarships, to work permits for foreigners, to the use or occupation of land (AOT, building permit, etc.) or even to the exercise of the urban pre-emption right.

During the Executive Council meeting of July 16, 2026, 11 resolutions were examined.

· Allocation of the 2026 grant from the Collectivité to the Territorial Fund for School Works (CTOS) of Saint-Martin.

The allocation of the 2026 grant to the Territorial Fund for School Activities (CTOS) of Saint-Martin aims to guarantee the continuity of its public service missions for the benefit of students and families. With 220 employees (2025), this public establishment supports educational success, promotes equal opportunities, and strengthens social, educational, and cultural support for children, particularly in terms of developing extracurricular activities.

This grant of €12.22 million (out of a total budget of €15.06 million) also helps to consolidate the partnership between the Collectivité and the CTOS, while ensuring the latter has the financial resources necessary to implement its action program for the year 2026, in line with the provisions of the 2023-2026 Objectives and Resources Agreement between the Collectivité and the CTOS.

The Executive Council decides to approve, for the year 2026, the allocation of a subsidy from the Collectivité to the territorial fund for school works (CTOS) of Saint-Martin, amounting to €12,224,000.00.

• Project to purchase and install ball nets around the Grand-Case sports field and application for a grant from the National Sports Agency (ANS)

The Grand-Case sports field is a key facility for sports in the northern part of the territory. Throughout the year, it hosts a wide range of sporting, school, community, and recreational activities for a diverse public. This local facility is used daily by young people, associations, and residents of the neighborhood, making it an essential element of local sporting life.

In order to guarantee practice conditions that comply with safety requirements and to meet the growing needs of users, it is necessary to proceed with the complete replacement of the existing ball nets around the Grand-Case sports field.

This operation will notably allow:

• To sustainably improve the safety of practitioners, the public and local residents;

• To preserve the surrounding infrastructure;

• To guarantee practice conditions that comply with technical standards and the requirements of sports federations;

• To encourage more intensive and diversified use of the equipment.

Beyond improving safety conditions, this project will contribute to strengthening the sports offering available in the area, meeting the needs of associations and schools, promoting access to sport for all and supporting public policies of social cohesion, public health and inclusion through sport.

The provisional financing plan includes a grant application of 150,000 euros to the National Sports Agency (ANS), via the DRAJES2 Guadeloupe; and relating exclusively to the "Equipment" scope of the project: namely, the expenses relating to the removal, installation and civil engineering work.
