Departmental Council of Bouches-du-Rhône

The Departmental Council of Bouches-du-Rhône (French: Conseil départemental des Bouches-du-Rhône; Occitan: Conselh Departamental dei Bocas de Ròse), sometimes abbreviated "CD 13" (in reference to Bouches-du-Rhône's INSEE and postal number), is the deliberative assembly of the French department of Bouches-du-Rhône in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. It consists of 58 members, known as departmental councillors, from 29 cantons. Its headquarters are in Marseille, the department's prefecture.[1][2] Until the 2015 departmental election, it was known as the General Council of Bouches-du-Rhône (French: Conseil général des Bouches-du-Rhône); accordingly, its members were known as general councillors (conseillers généraux).[3]

Fully renewed on 20 and 27 June 2021, the departmental council has been chaired since 2 April 2015 by Martine Vassal of The Republicans.
