The Communauté de communes Deux Morin is a French federation of municipalities ("communauté de communes") located in the Seine-et-Marne department in the Île-de-France region.
History.
As part of the provisions of the law on the new territorial organization of the Republic (Loi NOTRe) of August 7, 2015, which requires that inter-municipal cooperation public bodies with their own tax system must have a minimum of 15,000 inhabitants (and 5,000 inhabitants in mountain areas), the prefect of Seine-et-Marne approved a new departmental scheme of inter-municipal cooperation (SDCI) which notably provides for the merger of the communities of communes of la Brie des Morin and Cœur de la Brie.
Thus, the "communauté de communes des Deux Morin" was created on January 1, 2017, by prefectural decree of December 19, 2016.
It resulted from the merger of the former communities of la Brie des Morin (21 communes) and Cœur de la Brie (10 communes).
Community territory.
Description.
The community manages a rural territory located in Seine-et-Marne, on the border between the Île-de-France and Grand Est regions, between the Petit Morin and Grand Morin rivers, which give it its name. This territory is approximately equidistant from the economic centers of Meaux, Provins, Coulommiers, and Château-Thierry.
Economically, it was severely affected by two factory closures in 2019: the Arjowiggins paper mill (220 employees) and the Villeroy & Boch faience factory (113 employees), and lost its railway service in 2002 previously provided by the Gretz-Armainvilliers to Sézanne line, although a reopening project is being considered.
