Regies with legal personality and financial autonomy, known as local public establishments, are created, and their administrative and financial organisation determined, by deliberation of the municipal council. They are administered by a board of directors and a director appointed under the same conditions on the proposal of the mayor.
A decree in the Council of State determines, as necessary, the terms of application of this article as well as the specific terms applicable to the régies created for the operation of services of public interest of an administrative nature.
