Integration of urban studies: the agglomeration of Saint-Omer ; Intégration des études urbaines : agglomération de Saint-Omer
, following the CODOR meeting of 12 June 1997, set up a steering group by the Urban Planning Department. The group consisted of the following members of CODOR: P. MASSINI of FNSEM, J.P. PORTEFAIT of SFU, M. BELLIOT de la FNAU, P. MFA XAMBEU; and representatives of DGUHC, DR, CETE Nord Picardie and COP. The aim of the group was to advance the methods and conduct of studies on the basis of the parallel examination of urban policies in two medium-sized cities, Compiègne and St Orner. For each agglomeration, a retrospective analysis of the most prominent studies and approaches carried out in 15-20 years has been carried out, followed by an identification of the reference system to which these studies follow. Finally, by comparison, the conditions and factors for the success of the approaches and studies carried out in these two agglomerations were highlighted. In addition to the results of this work, two avenues for continuing this work are proposed: — use the method of analysis to take advantage of it in the context of the reflection provided for in the CERTU 1999 work programme on territorial diagnosis; — use the content of the monographs on indicators and the reference system in the context of the ACTOR programme (Analysis Concerted on Transformations and Urbains Equilibres). In both cases, a technical approach based on indicators or scenarios is not perceived, which looks at policy coherence or the degree of integration as defined by CERTU. There is no instrumentation in the observation of urban mechanisms and in the orientation or reorientation of the territorial project. The coherence or quality of integration of studies and planning approaches is based on permanent objectives and appropriate partnership strategies, not on technical rationality. ; A la suite du CODOR du 12 juin 1997 un groupe de pilotage a été mis en place par le département Urbanisme.
