Public institutions for inter-municipal cooperation (EPCI) in France are subject to common rules comparable to local authorities. The dataset likely contains information on EPCI types with and without own taxation, such as Urban Communities and Communities of Communes. It was published by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières and last updated in March 2019.
Use Cases
- Mapping the distribution of different EPCI types based on the described categories like Urban Communities and Communities of Communes.
- Analyzing the fiscal structure of local governance by comparing EPCI with own taxation versus those without.
- Studying regional administrative cooperation patterns within the Gironde department.
Strengths
- Focuses on a specific administrative region (Gironde department) for localized analysis.
- Distinguishes between multiple types of intercommunal structures, including those with and without own taxation.
Limitations
- Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
- Last updated 2019-03-27 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
