Dear ISCAV members   The PORT COUNCIL was held on 05/12/2022 in the presence of representatives of the municipality of ANTIBES, representatives of VAUBAN 21 and the ASSOCIATIONS: ISCAV - APPA - SRA. The ISCAV was represented by its two elected members: Mr Guy LUQUET and Mr André BUONOMO.   SUMMARY OF THE YEAR 2022   - From the beginning of the year, the operation of the Port and the execution of the Public Service Delegation were disrupted by the geopolitical instability, which led, among other things, to a drop in the number of visitors to the Grande Plaisance quay.   - The work on the VAUBAN 21 investment project continued: Reinforcement of the Heliport platform, Elevation of the lighthouse, Heritage pontoon, Craftsmen's village, etc. . - The teams had to adapt to the constraints imposed by the reorganisation of the mooring plan, which went from 1650 to 1500 SPACES.   - The vast majority of Port Vauban users declared themselves satisfied with their stay in response to a survey conducted by RIVIERA PORT.   AMENDING BUDGET 2022   - The financial year was marked by the end of the farm-outs and the end of the loss-making results of VAUBAN21.   - The result of the rectified 2022 budget is set at + €2.32m against an initial forecast of €4.71m.   - Operating income is down by €2.58m and the marketing of USAGE GUARANTEE CONTRACTS is lower than expected.   2023 PRIMITIVE BUDGET   - The operating results increased by €1.03m to a surplus of €3.63m.   - The net result is a profit of € 3.02m.   RATES and CONDITIONS OF APPLICATION   - The tariffs are subject to annual indexation in accordance with the parameters and indices set out in the D.S.P. contract.

What are the reasons for these discrepancies?   - The water billing in 2022 is incorrect because its use has been prohibited for washing our boats by prefectural decree since April 2022.   - The management fee for "amendment, transfer, assignment, succession of a guarantee of use contract" cannot be applied to contracts signed before 2021 as this clause is not stipulated.   We [...]
