Background
The initiative comes from Etienne Guyot, Prefect of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region and Prefect of the Rhône. According to him, this letter embodies the desire to open the doors of the administration and to make public action more readable for everyone. The publication is digital and is published monthly.
Why it's important
For new arrivals as well as for all residents, this support makes it possible to monitor concretely the progress of the projects and priority files of the region. It offers official and regular information, directly from the State services, without any intermediary.
What Changes
A new communication format for the prefecture was created: a monthly digital letter on State action. Three first issues have already been published and a monthly registration is open.
