Article L2541-2 of the French General Code of Local Authorities

The mayor convenes the town council as often as business requires.

The mayor is obliged to convene it whenever required by a written request stating the reasons and purpose of the convening and signed by one third of the members of the town council.

The notice of meeting indicates the items on the agenda; it is given at least three days before the meeting and, in the event of an emergency, the day before.

The Town Council, at the opening of the meeting, decides whether there was an emergency.

Le maire convoque le conseil municipal aussi souvent que les affaires l’exigent.

Le maire est tenu de le convoquer chaque fois qu’il en est requis par une demande écrite indiquant les motifs et le but de la convocation et signée par un tiers des membres du conseil municipal.

La convocation indique les questions à l’ordre du jour ; elle est faite trois jours au moins avant la séance et, en cas d’urgence, la veille.

Le conseil municipal, à l’ouverture de la séance, décide s’il y avait urgence.
