Overview
- AFP confirmed on March 2 that Olivier Faure appears fifth on Michel Bisson’s municipal slate in Lieusaint, Seine-et-Marne.
- Bisson said he invited Faure to harness his extensive contacts to advance local projects with ministries, administrations, and private partners.
- Faure resides in neighboring Savigny-le-Temple, yet French rules permit a deputy to run on a municipal list within the same department.
- The mayor emphasized that Faure will hold no delegation or municipal responsibilities and is not being positioned to become mayor.
- Faure’s team did not immediately respond to AFP’s requests for comment.
