Since its creation in 1997, the Urban Agency of Tétouan has been working continuously to improve the performance of its expertise in terms of services delivered to citizens and its partners in terms of efficiency, responsiveness, and transparency.

To this day, the AUTé adheres to the national strategy for the modernisation of the administration through the implementation of a policy of dematerialisation of the services offered by our departments.

Likewise, digital communication has become an essential tool for disseminating information, exchanging, and encouraging dialogue. It is in this perspective that the Urban Agency has set up its Web portal as a platform for information, sharing and exchange, intended to strengthen its policy of proximity and to open up further to its environment. This Web portal enables citizens and partners to learn about the missions and prerogatives of the Urban Agency of Tétouan, and ensures the popularization of reliable and credible information in its areas of competence (urban planning, regional planning, architecture, heritage, …).

This portal is therefore a door open to the world, a door that is not limited solely to providing information on the projects opened and monitored by the Agency, but also to gathering, in return, the proposals and suggestions of our partners, in order to enable us to continuously improve the quality of our services and to better listen to our territory.

Our will is to continue meeting the needs of our fellow citizens and our partners, always seeking to improve our communication channels and to promote our institution as a citizen institution.

Wishing you a pleasant browsing experience, do not hesitate to share with us your suggestions for the improvement of the portal.
