TY - Type of reference TI - Land transaction, as a mode of regulation for flood management. An insight from two flood retention areas: l’Île Saint Aubin (Saint Aubin Island, Angers) and la Bouillie discharge channel (Blois). AU - Mathilde Gralepois AU - Mathieu Bonnefond AU - Marie Fournier AU - Sylvie Servain AB - For local governments, the implementation of land tenure strategies may constitute a key component for the reinforcement of territorial resilience. As such, it is now quite common in France to implement flood protection projects based on the preservation of water retention areas, which are located upstream on-going urban development schemes. Such projects are implemented in order to protect the various issues at stake in those densely populated areas. In this context, the use of land tenure instruments (acquisition, local agreements, expropriation, etc…) may facilitate the implementation of those projects. In this paper, we will focus on 2 case studies with the example of flood expansion areas located nearby the cities of Blois (Bouillie spillway) and Angers (Ile Saint Aubin). In both projects, those water retention areas have been restored and/or maintained in order to protect neighboring urban estates, via the implementation of specific land tenure strategies. In this paper, we will describe and analyze those strategies. We will describe how they can be seen as “transactions” (or negotiated exchanges) between local stakeholders, that they may lead to the reorganization of local land uses and often have a strategic dimension which overtakes the mere land rights issue. At last, we will question those transactions on land, as they may constitute a crucial condition for the reinforcement of local resilience.
