Article L3123-19-2 of the French General Code of Local Authorities

Where the personal residence of the president of the departmental council is located outside the conurbation comprising the commune that is the capital of the department and the department’s estate includes official accommodation, the departmental council may determine by deliberation the terms and conditions under which this accommodation is allocated to him or her.

Where the departmental estate does not include such accommodation, the departmental council may, by deliberation, decide to award the president a subsistence allowance, within the limit of the daily allowances allocated for this purpose to State civil servants, in respect of the expenses he has incurred in order to be present at the county town to manage departmental affairs.

Article L3123-19-2

Lorsque la résidence personnelle du président du conseil départemental se situe en dehors de l’agglomération comprenant la commune chef-lieu du département et que le domaine du département comprend un logement de fonction, le conseil départemental peut fixer par délibération les modalités selon lesquelles ce logement lui est affecté.

Lorsque le domaine du département ne comporte pas un tel logement, le conseil départemental peut, par délibération, décider d’attribuer au président une indemnité de séjour, dans la limite des indemnités journalières allouées à cet effet aux fonctionnaires de l’Etat, en raison des frais qu’il a engagés pour être présent au chef-lieu du département pour assurer la gestion des affaires départementales.
