CHEVIGNY SAINT SAUVEUR ATTRACTIVE POUR RESIDER

The commune of Chevigny-Saint-Sauveur is constantly evolving and changing its appearance, with new or redesigned facilities, but also new real estate projects that mark the end of its expansion onto farmland. Over the years, Chevigny-Saint-Sauveur has multiplied its services and assets, encouraging more and more residents to settle here for the long term. Nevertheless, new real estate opportunities are regularly emerging to meet the expectations of people who want to live in the commune.

The Troubadours district. No less than 17.5 hectares of land are currently being developed, ranging from multi-family housing to semi-detached detached houses. By the end of 2026, 250 to 300 home-ownership units will be built by developer Edensy.

In 2024,the Poètes district will be enriched by 150 multi-family homes and 30 lots for single-family homes. On the agenda: architectural harmonization and mixed populations.

Chevigny Côté Sud is the name of the neighborhood project to be built behind the local cemetery. Crédit Mutuel Aménagement is planning to create a garden to green the town, further improve the living environment and create a distance between the housing and the burial site, and is planning 30 housing units in the development. Half will be single-family homes, the other half small-scale collective housing.

In the town center, Promogim is completing the construction of some sixty home-ownership units.

A residence for able-bodied senior citizens, just a stone's throw from the town hall and the town center's shops and services, is being considered with the aim of opening, if possible, before 2026. The Town Hall wishes to offer a solution adapted to an older population wishing to remain in the commune, in place of the old community building.

A new private school group is back in operation. The Les Arcades group, well established in the heart of Dijon, has built a 12-classroom establishment, from kindergarten to secondary school, near the Visitation church.

Chevigny-Saint-Sauveur wins the Trophée de l'Arbre 2023. The town's commitment to nature, which includes the "1,000 trees" challenge to be unveiled in 2021, has earned it this departmental label. The town had launched the challenge to plant 1,000 trees in public spaces such as the Parc de la Saussaie, but also in businesses and private homes. The operation was co-sponsored by the association "Un enfant peut sauver un arbre" (A child can save a tree), which regularly runs awareness-raising campaigns for schoolchildren. During the operation, over 130 trees were planted in the Parc de la Saussaie, a hundred of them purchased by private individuals or companies sympathetic to the project. Each sponsor knows the location of his or her tree, which will make the park even greener in years to come. The municipality is now aiming higher, hoping to plant 2,000 and then 3,000 trees, with the NGO Forestiers du Monde® as another partner.

Further plant densification: Chevigny-Saint-Sauveur, which is thus taking concrete action against global warming, will continue to densify the plant presence on its territory with the planting of several thousand trees over the coming years. The first of these projects is the future forest at the entrance to the town on the Terres Rousses side.

The Saint-Eloi residence, in the center of Chevigny-Saint-Sauveur, comprises 61 apartments (T2 to T5) in three buildings. The second phase of this program includes a tertiary space with premises for the department's services.

Committed to energy efficiency, the commune is stepping up its efforts to make the town "a laboratory for energy transition", with the renovation of its buildings, including the Ez Allouères and Buisson Rond schools, the switch to 100% LED lighting and the replacement of boilers by heat pumps in certain communal buildings.

A skate-park project in the Parc de la Saussaie: a 500 m² area will be dedicated to skates and rollerblades. The project is part of a participatory approach. Skateboarders can register at [email protected]

Over 200 events every year: organized by the town, the cultural department or associations, there's always something to do in Chevigny-Saint-Sauveur. The Fête de l'Escargot at the end of February has become the town's flagship event, with over 20,000 visitors.
