Dole. Hervé Prat has resigned from the municipal council

Laurent Emonin will sit in his place

Céline Mortagne, the next on the list to decline the position, is Laurent Emonin, a 53-year-old maintenance technician, who will sit. He was not present for his first council on July 15, but had given proxy.

Back in the spring, Hervé Prat (EELV), 58, confirmed to Le Progrès his decision to resign from the municipal council after the European elections on June 9. The dissolution of the National Assembly reshuffled the cards. The ecologist elected official chose to stay to “lead battles.”

A new era in the council

He was the candidate of the New Left Front for the 3^e constituency, during the last legislative elections. Then withdrew on the evening of the first round to form a republican front against the far right. And Hervé Prat announced that evening that he would resign after the second round. The first opponent to Jean-Baptiste Gagnoux, who had led the green and open list in the last municipal elections, wanted to make way for a young running mate to “prepare for 2026”. After the resignation of another figure of the Dole left, Ako Hamdaoui in October 2023, a new era is dawning on the Dole municipal council.
