The town of Saint-Affrique is organizing a public meeting on Thursday, December 3, 2026, at 6:30 PM at the Maison de l’Éducation populaire (MEP) to inform residents about the Legal Clearing Obligation (OLD).

Facing the increased fire risk due to drought and heatwaves, the municipality of Saint-Affrique, where 98% of the territory is subject to the Legal Clearing Obligation (OLD), is launching an information campaign. The aim is to address property owners' questions regarding areas to be cleared, risks of non-compliance, and best practices.
A public meeting is offered to all residents, including property owners with gardens in urban areas or those living in non-urban zones. The event will take place on Thursday, December 3, 2026, at 6:30 PM on the 1st floor of the MEP, rue Frangi et Ortéga.
The municipality emphasizes that many residents are unknowingly affected by OLD. Better understanding these obligations today is key to better protecting Saint-Affrique tomorrow.
