Clamart Welcomes Its New Mayor
In a significant change for the city, Clamart has officially appointed its new mayor in a council meeting held on the morning of January 7, 2025. Following the fallout from Jean-Didier Berger’s election as a deputy, a situation that barred him from holding both titles, the council members gathered to select his replacement.
The post has now been filled by Yves Coscas, who achieved an absolute majority during the voting process. Yves has been a prominent figure in local governance as the deputy mayor since 2014 and currently serves as a departmental councilor in Hauts-de-Seine. Additionally, he holds the position of vice president of Vallée Sud-Grand Paris.
In light of this leadership transition, Jean-Didier Berger, who previously held the mayoral role for the last six months, expressed his commitment to collaborating closely with the newly elected mayor. He assured the community of his ongoing dedication to serving alongside the municipal team, emphasizing a united approach to future city management.
Yves Coscas echoed this sentiment, reinforcing the importance of joint decision-making in their future endeavors. Despite stepping down from the mayoralty, Jean-Didier Berger will continue to be an active member of the municipal council after taking on the position of deputy in 2024.
