In response to contemporary challenges such as climate, environment, housing, and mobility, the territory has embarked on developing a common document: the Intercommunal Local Urban Plan Côte Basque-Adour (PLUi). This strategic document sets out the major orientations for sustainable development and planning for the coming years, defining land use rules and replacing previous urban planning documents for a coherent intercommunal approach.
The public inquiry, a mandatory process to ensure transparency and citizen involvement, will take place from Friday, November 27, 2026, at 9:00 AM to Monday, December 28, 2026, at 5:00 PM. It is overseen by an inquiry commission appointed by the Administrative Tribunal.
Residents are invited to consult the full dossier, available digitally on the CAPB website (https://www.communaute-paysbasque.fr/logement-et-urbanisme/les-procedures-durbanisme/procedures-durbanisme/elaboration-du-plan-local-durbanisme-infracommunautaire-plui-cote-basque-adour) and in paper format at the CAPB offices (15 av. Foch, Bayonne). An abridged version will also be available at the town halls of Anglet, Bayonne, Biarritz, Bidart, and Boucau.
Observations can be submitted electronically via the online register (https://www.registre-dematerialise.fr/6664), by email, on the paper register at the inquiry locations, or by mail to the CAPB address. Public hearings with the inquiry commissioners will be held on various dates and locations, including November 27, December 12, and December 19, 2026, as well as December 28, 2026.
