• Resumen

  • The city of Paris has decided to review its local urban plan to make it bioclimatic. To reach this goal, municipalities are inspired by both scientific concepts such as the 15-Minute City concept and inhabitants-users’ expectations. The 15-Minute City concept associates permanent geographic proximity with a period of time reduced to 15 min, which allows inhabitant users to have access to main needs of urban life. A main issue for a municipality that would use this concept is to wonder to what extent the founding notions of this concept meet inhabitants-users’ expectations. To survey Parisian on their expectations, the city of Paris has set up a consultation mechanism. In particular, it used a civic-tool, the “idee.paris” platform. In this chapter, proposals published on this platform and related to the diagnosis are analyzed to identify convergence and divergence points between the 15-Minute City concept and respondents' expectations. The main common point is that 15-Minute concept and respondents' expectations are both fed by the need to integrate more completely inhabitant users in the city governance. Nonetheless, the 15-Minute City concept is mostly based on the interweaving of time and permanent geographic proximity. Differently, respondents are first concerned about element of nature and nature experience. Beyond convergence and divergence, our study reveals an ambiguity. The 15-Minute City concept and respondents do not define proximity in the same terms and proximity can be perceived as a positive element or a negative one depending on the context.
