What is the main objective of the new Paris urban plan (PLU)?: The Paris City Hall aims to implement a new bioclimatic local urban plan (PLU), mandating the allocation of a portion of buildings to social housing during major renovations, a policy called "pastillage", to achieve 40% public housing by 2035.
What are some of the key amendments proposed by Changer Paris?: Amendments proposed by Changer Paris include exempting buildings in protected areas or those exceeding 15,000 square meters, and introducing the concept of private housing deficit zones to maintain a balance between social and private housing.
What is the main concern of the Changer Paris group regarding the PLU?: The "Changer Paris" group opposes the PLU's social housing requirements, fearing it will decrease property values, hinder renovations, and deter international investors. They propose amendments to exempt certain buildings and zones.
What are some concerns regarding the impact of the PLU on building renovations?: Concerns are raised regarding the impact on the renovation of buildings, particularly the potential for delays and the added complexities of meeting different regulations for social and private housing.
What is Changer Paris' position on the preservation of Parisian architectural character?: Changer Paris also aims to protect the architectural identity of Parisian neighborhoods by opposing the over-elevation of smaller buildings, expressing concerns about over-densification and the preservation of the city's unique character.
