In arrondissement councils, the limit set in article L. 2511-25 may be exceeded with a view to the creation of deputy posts with primary responsibility for one or more neighbourhoods, although their number may not exceed 10% of the legal number of members of the arrondissement council.
The deputy with primary responsibility for a neighbourhood deals with any issue of primary interest to the neighbourhood. He/she ensures that residents are kept informed and encourages their participation in the life of the district.
