[1:27] For the whole population, but you certainly
defended very well the residence in your
[1:33] district and we. WE started at the same time.
I remember you and and I at the Beaconsfield.
[1:45] Trainstation giving up pamphlets together.
So we were the only ones that we're
[1:52] neutral at that time. So everybody else was
a team together. So so thank you very
[1:58] much for what you've done and I now I think
it's your second retirement to like like me,
but
[2:10] good health and I know that your world will
want to watch your granddaughter a lot more
[2:20] and hockey. So so you'll have the time now
to do it. I don't know if you want to say a
few
[2:28] words, but we'll start saying we were in Toronto
and I over the weekend and sign of exactly
[2:35] one tree games. I was that is a lot of good,
good good. The University of Waterloo who the
[2:41] last years. I've been beat the nothing. So
I think they got a very good team and they
[2:45] actually meet the university of Toronto. So
it's been to be very exciting at the full of
[2:49] them. So thank you, George. I think you know
it's been a lot of fun. I've enjoyed you a
lot
[2:55] to be funny because I thinking today that you
know I don't mean to be insulting in any way
[3:03] to anyone or or or with my example, but it's
almost like when you lose a pay you know
[3:09] you've been so attached to someone and something
for for twelve years that suddenly you
[3:15] know now that separation exists and you're
saying like that you know how much you gonna
gonna
[3:19] leave without you guys, You know all that I
can always come in and you know to take one
of
[3:25] these seats as well, but it's been a lot of
fun. I've enjoyed talking to residence being
a
[3:29] part of it and I would certainly think it's
been. You know just a wonderful twelve
[3:33] years. I think more people should think about
running for useful elections, which we were
[3:39] part of everything. That's going on. WE know
it's happening. We're thinking for
[3:43] the future and representing our constituante
as well. So let me just take the city as well
the
[3:49] administration. The employees. I think it's
been a pleasure to work with you guys and you've
[3:53] been very supportive along the way and at the
same time. Thank you for to my supporter and
[3:59] volunteers over the years, so without them.
I certainly wouldn't have been here at all.
[4:04] So thank you to all of you and best wishes
to the company election and all. Thank you
[4:11] very much. Thank you. Yes, thank you. Thank
you so much. Thank you appreciate it that
[4:26] was that. Alors? Après douze ans, moi aussi
j'ai décidé de me retirer de la vie politique.
[4:40] Je me suis jamais vu comme un politicien, plutôt
comme un homme d'affaires qui a décidé
[4:48] de contribuer à sa communauté après une
retraite comme homme d'affaires. Thank you
for your
[4:58] confidence for the last twelve years and thank
you for those that actually did right to me
[5:08] and with very very kind words. So I appreciate
that very much. I have talked about my legacy
[5:16] in the twenty twenty twenty five summer edition
of contact. I think the highlights for me.
[5:26] Are how we were managed to keep lots locals.
Thanks for twelve years below. Inflation and
[5:36] unfortunately the agglomerations was not able
to do the same thing and sky. I
[5:42] want your tax for the agglomerations, but the
whole lot local tax were kept under
[5:50] inflation. I think the conservation of angels
would was a highlight and my twelve
[6:00] years. Et le centre culturel qui est temps,
qui est un projet qui est en train de se
[6:06] réaliser. Pour moi, c'est une réalisation
extraordinaire. C'est un héritage pour la
[6:16] communauté de Beaconsfield. C'est un projet
de premier plan. En plus, c'est dans un parc
sur
[6:25] le bord de l'eau, alors on pourrait pas avoir
un background. Le mieux que ça et.
[6:34] La dernière fois, la dernière chose que je
veux mentionner, c'est la. The last but against
[6:42] Montreal. I think that this is dear to me and
I know that we have not resolve the issue.
[6:50] It's now twenty plus million-dollar is that
we are claiming from the Montreal and
[6:58] and the Quebec government. I am very confused
that we will have a favorable decisions and
I
[7:10] hope that with the same bigger that I have
put behind that that the new council will carry
[7:20] this car is this on and till the end. Being
maire of Beaconsfield has been one of
[7:28] the most challenges challenging demanding and
rewarding commitment of my life. I would
[7:36] also like to thank my colleagues on the council
at the municipal administration
[7:46] under the leadership of Patrice Boileau, director
General my executive assistant that is
[7:54] here tonight, we have wink wink and all the
volunteers and partners in community life.
[8:02] Thank you for your commitment, your loyalty
your ideas and sometimes even your questions.
[8:12] Special thanks to my family for their unwavering
support patience and wisdom to my wife.
[8:23] Ellen, who is present here tonight? I thank
you for your constant presence advice and
[8:29] confidence through this adventure. I leave
politics with Serenity, but I remain
[8:37] deeply attached to Beaconsfield. Tonight. It
is my pleasure to announce that Allen and I
and
[8:48] my family will donate one hundred thousand
dollars to the cultural center project. I hope
[9:10] that the future council and Meyer will follow
my lead. Now, we can go to the. Return
[9:28] questions that we go in the mail, the first
one from Rita Reid. Shamrock organic waste
[9:40] pickup would it be possible to increase the
organic pick up for twice a month to twice
a
[9:46] month. It would have a lot of organic matters
going into landfill city like pincourt and
[9:53] Kirkland have pick up pick up every week all
year longue. It would even be a help during
the
[10:00] months of November and march. Maybe more people
with start using it if they know it would
[10:06] be picked up more often thank you well that
the question is very very timely because thank
[10:14] you for your suggestion, but this item is on
tonight agenda. If the contract is awarded
[10:21] according to option three organic waste collection
would moved to our weekly year around
[10:28] schedule fifty two pick up per year. And these
two new contract that we will approve
[10:36] tonight. Hopefully, we will approve them will
save the city one hundred and the thousand
[10:44] dollars. So we're very very happy that is the
win win for the city and for the residence.
[10:54] Nicole Corrado, saint. Andrew. Nicole. Maid
various. Comment and your comment? Nicole are
[11:04] noted as you are currently a candidate for
mer any further statements our position should
[11:12] be shared through your campaign during the
election period. Mr Russell Duncan avondale.
Maire
[11:24] Burrell, you served the city well building
bridges making Tufts calls and living behind
a
[11:32] legacy that will outlast your thing your as
someone who knows the players and what this
city
[11:40] needs better than anyone. You have inside the
waters need to hear well you endorses any
[11:48] candidate to be your success or and what quality
should the next maire? Have I know it's
[11:56] the question Everyone's asking the residents
deserve to know your answer. Thank you for
your
[12:02] time and your your years of service best regards.
Russell. Thank you for your kind words
[12:10] and I'm grateful for the opportunity to have
served our community out of the respect,
[12:16] out of the respect of the democratic processes
and the residents right to make their
[12:22] own inform choices choices. I will not be commenting
on our endorsing any candidate.
[12:30] However, I would think that experience expertise,
expertise in leadership and the platform
[12:40] of each candidate whether by counselor or maire
that you should look at and determine
[12:52] who you will actually vote for at that time.
This those are the question that we're written
[13:02] and now we can go to the floor to ask any questions
if you have any questions. Would you
[13:12] go to the Mike and then it yourself and then
ask your questions. Girard. Julie.
[13:24] Est-ce que c'est vrai qu'il n'y a pas de. Non
non, non. Pauline. Guy Girard sur Jubilee,
La
[13:32] question. 40.40 point un Règles de modification
des règles de régie interne du Comité
[13:38] consultatif d'urbanisme. Est-ce que vous pouvez
élaborer un peu plus? Qu'est ce que ça veut
[13:42] dire? Request to modify the internal rules
of procedure of the planning Advisory Committee,
[13:50] c'est ça? Oui, oui. Alors peut être que.
Patrice Oui. David je ne suis pas là adressé
au
[14:00] président du Oui oui en fait merci pour la
question. En fait c'est pendant plusieurs années,
[14:05] on avait six personnes qui qui se présentent
comme des résidents qui sont qui fait
[14:10] partie de comités. Et au fur et à mesure,
on a réalisé que parfois il n'y a pas, En
[14:16] général, la participation était excellente,
mais parfois on est un nombre pair. Alors Et
par
[14:24] défaut, moi, je suis évidemment, mon vote
compte ici. Normalement, lorsqu'on révise
[14:28] les projets aussi, mais dans les circonstances
où c'est un nombre de par mois, je. Aussi,
[14:36] je vote sur le Committee aussi pour briser
le vote ou avoir un vote en faveur ou défaveur.
[14:42] Donc pour minimiser, ça réduit les chances
que ça arrive. On a rajouté une autre, un
autre
[14:48] membre, cette personne finalement. Et aussi
ça donne je pense qu'au bout de la ligne
[14:52] aussi, c'est pas mauvais d'avoir un peu plus
de personnes. On pourrait avoir
[14:56] une limite. Le nombre de personnes sur le comité
pourrait être gérable aussi,
[14:58] mais ça ajoute une personne de plus. C'est
une autre voix de plus pour les résidents
de vie
[15:04] qui entrent sur le comité. En même temps,
ça, c'est un atout. Et aussi, on avait un
manque
[15:10] pour n'importe quelle raison, mais il y avait
un manque dans un secteur de Beaconsfield.
Et
[15:14] là, on a trouvé un candidat ou un candidat
qui s'est présenté dans cette région de
[15:18] Beaconsfield, qui va rejoindre le comité.
Donc, en bout de la ligne, on ajoute une personne,
[15:26] comme je disais tantôt, mais il y a aussi
d'avoir un remplaçant pour avoir un voix pour
tous
[15:30] les secteurs de Beaconsfield qu'on n'avait
pas nécessairement auparavant.
[15:33] C'est un peu le rationnel derrière ça. Donc,
c'est pas tout à fait des règles, c'est
[15:36] non, non, non, des règles, on a des règles
internes, c'est plutôt des règles
[15:40] administratifs qu'on qu'on doit ajuster pour
avoir, pour permettre d'avoir cette
[15:46] personne, d'ailleurs, là, 40,2. Dit Afin d'augmenter
le nombre de membres constituant le
[15:52] comité de 6 à 7. Oui, c'est c'est un geste
administratif, mais également on doit faire
ce
[16:00] geste là, mais c'est un peu ça le rationnel
en arrière, le choix, pourquoi on va élargir
[16:04] un petit peu le comité. OK? So we're we're
just moving the committee from sixth the seven
[16:09] people on the planning advisory board for those
that didn't catch that so quickly as I said
[16:15] there the we had sixth people which is sixth
district six people, but sometimes we would
[16:21] be and even number it when there's a committee
there, we sometimes you have to break the
[16:25] vote. I don't normally vote on the committee,
but when it's the time, then I'd be the
[16:29] tie-breaker so the building that would you
just had one more person, so that we can
[16:33] really reduce the circumstances where when
the times of that happening plus the other
person,
[16:37] that's coming and also represent vary and beacons
for that wasn't covered before so
[16:41] we have a better coverage and the voice and
we'll have a voice for for those looking at
[16:47] the the project, it comes to the planning advisory
committee, which are typically you know
[16:51] new construction major renovations and things
of that nature. So, ça répond à ta
[16:58] question? Oui. Parfait. Oui, J'avais une autre
question pour le 60.2. Vous avez parlé de
[17:02] l'approbation du rapport au lieu d'un dépôt.
Mais c'est quoi le plan de gestion des
[17:06] actifs des eaux en haut? Est ce que ça c'est
l'aqueduc, les égouts ou les deux ou. Le 60
[17:15] 65.2? Oui, c'est le dépôt du rapport sur
le plan de gestion des actifs des actifs en
eau
[17:21] datée du 16 septembre 20 21. Oui, oui, oui.
Merci pour votre question, madame Girard C'est
[17:29] le plan de gestion des actifs des eaux. C'est.
C'est une obligation que le gouvernement
[17:33] du Québec impose à toutes les villes d'avoir
son plan avant le 31 décembre 2026. En
[17:40] septembre 2024, la Ville a pris l'engagement
de faire son plan, et notre plan est prêt
à ce
[17:48] moment-ci. Donc, c'est le plan qui touche tant
l'eau potable, tant l'eau, les eaux usées
que
[17:52] les eaux pluviales. C'est l'ensemble de la
gestion des eaux sur notre territoire. Et
[18:00] ça touche plusieurs facettes de la qualité
de l'eau, le nombre de fois qu'on va en faire
des
[18:06] avis d'ébullition, en supposant qu'on n'en
a pas, comment on va procéder? Le niveau de
service,
[18:10] le niveau de qualité, etc. Ça touche beaucoup,
beaucoup d'éléments. C'est un travail
[18:14] qui a duré toute une année dans un comité
de travail, avec l'appui d'un consultant. On
y
[18:20] prend la première ville. Monsieur le Maire
a déposé notre notre plan à un point tel
[18:26] que la résolution qu'on adopte ce soir, elle
n'est pas encore rédigé au ministère des
[18:30] Affaires municipales. Donc, on prend de l'avant.
Ils vont peut être nous dire oui, mais
[18:34] faudrait peut être la modifier un peu, on
reviendra au conseil. Mais la bonne nouvelle
là
[18:38] dedans d'être aussi, je ne veux pas dire expéditif,
c'est pas le bon mot, mais d'être en
[18:42] avant de la parade, c'est qu'en ayant adopté
ces deux engagements et notre plan, on
[18:46] va recevoir 300 zéro cents de plus dans notre
subvention des infrastructures qu'on appelle
[18:52] la tech ou la gaz taxe, donc une subvention
d'à peu près 6.2 qui va être augmentée
de 300
[18:58] zéro zéro 0 $ sur une période de cinq ans,
de 2024 à 2028. Donc, parce qu'on va arrêter,
[19:04] on va déposer avant le 31 décembre 2025,
ceux qui déposent à partir du 1e?
[19:08] janvier 2026 auront pas 150 zéro 0 $ supplémentaires.
Puis est ce que ça inclut la gestion
[19:13] des inondations qu'on a eu bien ou pas encore?
Ça fait partie, les inondations, ça affecte
les
[19:20] eaux pluviales. Donc je dirais que oui, mais
c'est pas directement en lien avec ça. La
[19:24] gestion des inondations, ce serait plus dans
notre un plan d'intervention en mesures
[19:30] d'urgence que nous avons adopté un plan d'action
suite à la tempête Debbie qu'on a. On a
[19:36] mis un plan d'action en place. Donc, c'est
pas tout à fait directement relié parce que
[19:40] gérer l'inondation, c'est pas comme gérer
les eaux, là, au quotidien, mais évidemment
ça
[19:44] devrait, on le souhaite, éviter à certaines
occasions, en tout cas, qu'il y ait des
[19:48] inondations. Est ce que vous avez résolu le
problème dans le bout de Tower là? Est ce
que
[19:53] vous avez trouvé une solution pour les prochaines
grosses? Je pense que c'est au mois d'août.
[20:01] On a donné quelques directives, on a fait
quelques résolutions, mais est ce que vous
me donnez
[20:05] encore quelques instants? Donc une des résolutions
c'était de demander au CN d'enlever des
[20:10] ponceaux qui avaient été installés de façon
temporaire. Je suis content de vous dire
[20:13] que ça a été enlevé il y a deux vendredis,
je crois. Donc, on est très content que le
CN a
[20:19] été expéditif là dessus. Le Conseil a aussi
mandaté un consultant expert en en
[20:27] résilience de bâtiments pour aider les citoyens
qui ont été affectés, encore une fois cette
[20:33] année à la tempête. La pluie abondante du
13 juillet, surtout les gens de Tower qui
[20:39] va donner un appui. En tout cas, il va faire
un rapport sur comment améliorer leurs
[20:45] propriétés. Donc, ça, ça va se faire dans
la première semaine du mois de novembre. Il
va
[20:51] faire les 20 85, 30 portes, là, et les bâtiments
qui sont affectés, il y a six bâtiments
[20:59] avec 30 portes, là. Et, dans cette semaine
là, le jeudi soir, le 6 novembre, il va y
avoir
[21:05] une présentation aux citoyens sur comment
rendre sa propriété plus étanche aux inondations
[21:13] suite à des fortes pluies. Évidemment, la
ville, on a des des choses qu'on est en train
[21:17] de regarder de notre côté, mais je l'ai mentionné
aux citoyens de la rue Tower, on a partagé
[21:23] ça avec les élus. Selon Ouranos, qui est
un organisme supporté par les grands du Québec,
la
[21:29] période de 2040 à 2070, il faut s'attendre
à cinq fois plus d'incidence. Et c'est pas
exact.
[21:37] Les incidences de changements climatiques intenses
que nous vivons devraient faire en sorte,
[21:43] si on veut être capable de répondre à ça
avec des infrastructures municipales, il
[21:47] faudrait que nos infrastructures, nos infrastructures
soit cinq fois
[21:50] plus grande que Vous pensez qu'un tuyau de
douze pouces dans la rue, il faut le
[21:55] remplacer par un tuyau de 60 pouces. Ça n'arrivera
pas. Donc, il faut se trouver des façons
[22:01] d'être résilient, tant dans les propriétés
privées. Puis la ville fait ce qu'elle peut
[22:05] faire pour faciliter ça. Les citoyens qui
font, qui ont fait appel à nous, avec le rapport,
[22:09] on va subventionner 75 % du coût de l'analyse
de cette expertise là. Un des points
[22:13] peut être, ça serait de ne pas permettre
de construire avec des sous-sols quand c'est
dans
[22:17] des endroits où la nappe phréatique est haute,
Ça fait partie de toutes les
[22:23] considérations que les urbanistes des villes
et l'Association des urbanistes,
[22:27] l'ordre des urbanistes, sont en train d'analyser.
Je sais qu'il y a des décisions qui ont été
[22:33] prises dans certaines villes, pas autant pour
les sous sols que pour les habitations en
[22:37] sous-sol. Il y a des gens qui vivent dans un
sous-sol à l'année longue. C'est un
[22:41] appartement, un bachelor comme on dit en bon
québécois. Ça, ça va être interdit dans
certaines
[22:47] villes. Maintenant, que ce soit un espace de
vie familiale, si c'est un sous sol où les
gens
[22:53] comme utilise pour fins personnelles d'agrandir
leur maison, si je peux dire, un
[22:59] espace de vivoir, bien là, ça, ça pourrait
leur appartenir. Mais, pour le moment, on n'est
[23:03] pas rendu là. Mais je sais qu'il y a des espaces
de vie au niveau des appartements. Il y a
[23:09] des villes qui ont commencé à dire On ne
permettra plus que ce soit un espace, un
[23:13] appartement, puis ceux qui sont affectés par
ça, souvent déjà, sont démunis, puis en
plus, ils
[23:16] se retrouvent avec une situation catastrophique,
là. Donc, merci encore de règlement
[23:20] pour les sous sol en zone où la nappe phréatique
phréatique est haute. On n'est pas rendu là,
[23:30] on n'a pas. Ça va faire partie des analyses,
on en a pour quelques années avant d'arriver
[23:34] avec des projets d'infrastructures majeurs.
Merci. Merci beaucoup. Est-ce
[23:37] qu'il y a d'autres questions? Bonsoir. I'm
Caroline. Malcolm five roses so to begin. I
want
[23:56] to thank you, Mr Borrel for the Financial management
and Angel Woods and I was really happy
[24:02] when you were pursuing the city of Montreal
when we were talking about the Florida in
[24:08] the water. I felt like you really went out
and you tried to advocate for the citizens
[24:14] and regardless they made the decisions. But
now here I show you the picture of the bus
stop
[24:20] in front of for nine, nine month roses drive.
And I just don't understand why we weren't
[24:28] told that the bus routes was coming on our
street. I have two bus in front of my house
[24:34] every day and they're empty most of the time.
So I know I was told to go to the STM,
[24:40] which I did and we still don't have any answer.
Yeah I. Feel for for you because I tried to
[24:49] get an answer at the last agglomération meeting
to you are questions that was. I know
[24:55] I know how I walked out I walk out because
the answer that you go from madame Mozzarella
was
[25:03] absolutely no. So I was and I wanted to want
this out and I was not given the day at the
[25:15] opportunity to to talk. So I walked out. What
I understood that, but they did let you
[25:23] speak the time before and and so they didn't
apply their rules correctly right because
[25:29] the time before the lady said one question
one response, but the time before you. Did
you
[25:36] did respond? I listening you have to keep trying
to go with the STM. And their decisions.
[25:46] That's it's not. What have ask us to. They
ask us en opinion, but it's there with somebody
[25:56] said in the last council meeting somebody new
where to put the same right, so somebody
[26:04] put the same for nine Nine was done instructions
of the STM so the problem with the STM lady
[26:10] is the marketing will tell me tell me one thing.
Are there any school bus that goes by
[26:18] Mount rose? Yes. But do you know the size of
the STM bus I mean I proposed solution was
[26:27] the school bus. There are about the same size
as the STM bus is well. Now, I don't know I
don't
[26:35] know but. OK, if I mean look now the room is
the room is the lead the West island. It's
been
[26:42] here, It's been delayed until the spring and
it might be even longer in the meantime will
be
[26:52] alright. That's what we should do because that's
it the reliable transport in the
[26:55] meantime. You keep going with the STM, Hopefully
the will get your way. WE have no, no
[27:04] nothing to do with the decisions. I know that's
why I'm frustrated because I go to
[27:10] the agglomerations and I get told go back to
the STM, and then the STM doesn't answer
[27:16] anything. Well, that's so so where do you go?
And they're running the deficit so I worked
[27:22] for IBM for seventeen years right? So financial
management is really nice and here to my
[27:24] heart. So when I see empty bus in front of
my house. I really wonder do what could we
use
[27:31] resources in a better way right? Why? Why are
people standing on the bus when it goes on
chemin
[27:37] Sainte-Marie, but when it's right in front
of my house, There's three people and why I
[27:44] have no idea because there is not in operation,
Obviously the rm will change and right now
[27:52] because of no parking. The station people will
have to bike and walk and the snowstorm
[28:02] transportation in the rain. So it's a community,
it's a community service really so
[28:09] it's well, you know I mean, I still don't understand
look, I wrote to the CDPQ
[28:15] infrastructure to say what are you putting
parking? I mean the West Island, I told the
[28:21] agglomération that the West island is not
the plateau. It's the same density. The question
[28:25] of parking has been taken taken up with the
agglomération, madame Plante and the mirror
of
[28:35] the mirror of Kirkland. Michelle Gibson is
very very upset. I expressed our the fact
[28:47] that we were also upset, because there is no
parking. It's not our decision. It's not
[28:54] our decision. The decision like the residents
going to the STM, STM the. STM have monthly
[29:03] meetings, we and so go directly to the STM
meeting and ask your question at that time
I would
[29:14] have madame Paradis and she doesn't answer.
So I know that's not your fault. I'm not
[29:19] I'm not saying that is the last meeting. I
think it was that STM would hold the meeting
with
[29:27] some residence. That's what I'm going, but
she's not reaching out to me. So she was not
[29:35] alright. Thanks. You. So my colleague. Denis
is the one coordinating this what I've
[29:41] heard and it's not confirmed yet. If it had
been could be able that would have announced
[29:47] the council, but it's not I've I've heard from
Denis that this meeting would take place here
[29:53] in the week of October thirteenth so and two
weeks so not sure exactly when you are
[29:59] waiting confirmation so stm should communicate
with you to tell you when that meeting is
[30:04] taking place. Is it just the fait accompli.
WE just accept that they had some where they
[30:12] want or do we have a say in what what they
want to do the city has put the same at those
[30:17] places and forming the residence where the
same were going to be installed before
[30:22] they were installed and that went pretty well
and. I guess it's not sorry. I was talking
[30:30] again. That's it's not with it was done under
the leadership of Siam looking at all the
[30:36] roots, and that's all the locations that were
preferred to have the bus platform, so
[30:42] which we had done thinking that would be running
sometimes this summer that was delayed. So
STM
[30:50] was waiting to have confirmation of a lot of
information with the rem and
[30:54] they're gonna be able to explain their side
of the story doing that meeting if I guess.
[31:02] In the meantime. We'll get the petition going
against this bus because I don't think
[31:07] residences necessarily want to be driving down
the now in residential street and
[31:14] specially empty bus. Cause I'm not sure that
people will actually take the bus. I don't
[31:20] know if anyone in this council. Do you take
the bus? Are you going to take the bus to go
to
[31:26] the rem personally? I will take my car downtown.
OK, anyway, good evening and happy
[31:32] retirement. I do appreciate that Beaconsfield.
I've loved in Beaconsfield since I was ten
[31:39] years old I inherited my parents house and
so I do appreciate beaconsfield and I
[31:43] certainly expect the next council to have very
good financial management as Mr
[31:49] Burrell also provided in twelve years, so that
I repeat again. It's not this council decision
[31:57] with the STM and the council here can not over
over. Understand. I guess my next
[32:11] just question would be. Is there anything else
that could happen in our lives that that
[32:17] could keep it to keep in mind that it's a community
service and it's all for the community
[32:23] all of the West of saint Charles and that will
have access to the bus in the
[32:29] morning and in the afternoon to take them to
the rams, and that's very well. Thank you.
[32:38] Thank you. Is this again against for the bus
and montrose. Robert was just I
[32:58] didn't communicate with the STM and writing.
I can't hear you. Je ne peux même pas parler
de
[33:04] ça. Je suis trop belle. I did communicate
with the STM via email. And I was informed
that
[33:12] everything that they are doing his work and
step in the city of Beaconsfield, just friends
[33:16] of clarification. And here is what you said.
So they are saying that the that there were
[33:22] all there is related to the bus is known to
the council of Beaconsfield. Well, we know
[33:28] about it. Yes, we want, we're the advise us
and but it's their decision. It's not here,
[33:35] but they. The information des decisions. I'm
just trying to get the information which is
[33:43] not available to me. So if there's something
that the city by the council has that I'm not
[33:49] aware of I'm just trying to information well
when you have I mean it. I'll give you the
[33:57] structure of the agglomerations and the council
and where it stands. I don't know I don't
[34:01] think you have appreciation of how this council
works and the agglomerations works. I'm not
[34:07] challenging that I'm just trying to what planning
went into this STM. Ask the STM at
[34:15] the risk of répartition. I did and they said
that I should contact the city of
[34:21] Beaconsfield, because of all there are looking
steps with the city of Beaconsfield. It's
[34:26] not it's not they're throwing, that's exactly
what at the agglomération, the ride. Trop
[34:32] trop trop trop. The ball back at at Beaconsfield.
But it's not our decision. It's not.
[34:40] It's the decision. Now I will repeat the same
thing all over again. I don't want to have
a
[34:46] second question or a third question on now
I am sorry, but I. It's enough about the bus
[34:56] and want roses. Thank you very much at the
risk of you. Insulting my father at the very
[35:03] men women that you said that he didn't understand
where appreciate the agglomerations.
[35:07] I want to remind you that already in this conversation
that we've had tonight, we've
[35:11] had two years from two members of the council
that stipulais that the bus stop that were
[35:15] already planted on the ground, where it done
by the STM in one scenario and by the city
of
[35:19] Beaconsfield in another. So yes, I understand
that the decision is not done by the ground.
I'm
[35:25] talking. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but I'm not
done speaking of the same time that I'm just
[35:28] going to finish my command. Thank you very
much because I'm gonna just finish you. Could
[35:34] you keep quiet for asking thank. The city city
guide, Non, The city did the platform on the
[35:44] construction of the STM, so but the gentlemen
here just stated that the city decided where
the
[35:50] platform were going to go and that he ordered
where they are going to go. I'm sorry, that's
[35:54] not what I said the lady. That's the question
when the STM installed the the platform
[35:58] if we have installed the platform under the
instructions or request of the STM, that's
[36:06] the different. So don't don't put it in my
mouth. So I'm not right now by my city council.
[36:12] It's all that I thank you very much for your
question. I think we talked about STM mount
rose
[36:18] and bus in charge of our city you very much.
That's it. I'm just. I'll ask somebody to
[36:28] remove you from the room. If you keep going
going. Conversation. You would you
[36:34] please ask that gentlemen to stop now. What
is this gonna be my common? Non. Non. Non.
Oui.
[36:44] We've had enough about the STM bus. I'm not
talking about the. Non, non non. Sorry. Please,
[36:52] please our future council is responsible for
taking care of our citizens and listening and
[36:57] letting them speak. Any other questions. D'autres
questions sur d'autres sujets? Non. My
[37:12] name is Robert. My God. So I'm. Robert. My
God. I'm the president of Beaconsfield and
I
[37:19] have questions about the regulation concerning
the sound of solid fuel appliances that
[37:24] was past. In August, and I can't hear you.
And questions about the regulation concerning
[37:33] the fuel appliances below that was past in
August, and I was wondering when we just moved
in.
[37:40] WE like fire, we really enjoyed the fireplace.
Oui, oui, It's only saying that I used a cup
[37:45] of times a year traditional usually around
Christmas and all the holidays. So was
[37:49] wondering what brought to the decision to be
in the house of traditional fireplace and the
[37:55] city of Beaconsfield and and if it was for
environmental reasons why bend fireplace
[38:01] versus other polluants like gaz power lawnmower
or other gaz power loneliness that actually
[38:08] plus more than fireplace, which are only used
to cup of time the year by residence. That
is
[38:15] first of all recommendations from the environment
committee who looked at the fireplace for
[38:23] the number of years with the environment committee.
Recommended that the banning
[38:29] legislation for woodburn and twenty twenty
two day again, brought it up and twenty twenty
[38:34] four, I would say that every thing that I looked
at in in looking at indoor, would would
[38:46] be in with smoke with suggests that it's very
unhealthy. It's toxic. And at that point, we
[38:54] have residence complaining and it's time about
the breeding and with smoke. If you read the
[38:59] research on it. There is eight any medical
association scientists or what have you
[39:06] that would say that would smoke is healthy
to breathe? So I'll do it might be very enjoyable.
[39:12] The fact that the back is very unhealthy in
fact the Canadian Lung association recommended
[39:21] banning all indoor would burning in all urban
residential areas. So it was
[39:27] the IPA seize I think one of their research
report. This was my love Campfire and Campfire
[39:35] smoke, but it's totally unhealthy. So there's
no reason to do want to promote with
[39:43] woodbury with smoke in in residential neighborhoods
and at the same time again, the
[39:51] medical and science research indicates that
breeding in wood smoke. This is toxic at the
[39:58] same time. It's specially harmful to children
pregnant women teenagers senior and
[40:07] those who suffer from asthma bronchites and
anybody with long and heart to heart disease
[40:15] and in terms of asthma. There is a asthma Canada,
There's eleven persons of Canadians who
[40:27] are asthmatique in person of that figure hold
through across the Canada would indicate that
[40:33] it's twenty two hundred residents, so when
you look at all of the individual groups
[40:40] that I've mentioned. That's about for the fifth
President of Beacon Hill residence. So
[40:45] it's not good for anybody to breathe and even
Westmount. In twenty twenty three and made
it
[40:54] affected by twenty twenty for that would burning
was simply horrible and it was something
[41:01] that they thought, they should continue even
don't westmount people loved to enjoy their
[41:07] their open fireplace for special occasions.
So I think in passing this legislation.
[41:17] Beaconsfield. Join the Montreal, it's nothing
burrows and then suburban municipality of the
[41:25] merged in having common would burning regulation,
so at this point in time ninety five pour
[41:32] 100 or one point million people now benefit
from having woodbury legislation So I say
[41:39] there is absolutely no reason to think that
would smoke coming from any fireplace.
[41:49] You're ready. What else? At Beaconsfield is
actually helping the health of your
[41:55] d'abord and moreover I got one step further
to say that it's very possible for talking
and
[42:00] like that you're talking about like an open
fireplace in your living room is that place
in
[42:07] the living room? Because of the fact that if
you are getting any kind of wood smoke and
[42:15] living. It's possible that you're breeding
that in I've heard that even cleaning the
[42:20] ashes from your after the fire those find particle
two point five. You could be breeding in.
[42:28] So again. I'll say is that this benefit fifty
years of our residents who are directly
[42:35] affected by with smoke and I know that asthme
asthmatique when they walk outside the
[42:41] winter time when you know what they breathe
with smoke. They start to React, so those are
[42:47] the medical, the science reasons why you know
this council and why the environment
[42:54] committee for the twenty twenty two and twenty
twenty for recommended that we bring it
[42:59] with burning legislation. Thank you for your
applied. I understand that it's not that
[43:04] it's not healthy, I wouldn't go and say that
it's healthy to breathe. What would fire? I
[43:09] think most people know that it's not healthy
for you. It's not something that people do
[43:14] regularly, however. I'm more wondering, you
know I think the person it's people's
[43:20] responsibility their own decisions. If they
want to have the world for burning.
[43:24] Fireplace is going outside. You know my family.
She's the music. There's a lot of asthmatique
in
[43:28] the family, but they do enjoy still the occasional
fireplace and I know that not everybody
[43:32] who is asthmatique and I was able to walk outside
and not have a reaction to having a
[43:38] fireplace. So I don't want to speak for everyone,
but I was trying to rest and if there is
[43:42] people actually residence of Beaconsfield,
who brought this forward who wanted to this
or
[43:46] is it done by an external environmental committee
who suggested the change. It's it's
[43:52] our inventory of environmental committee, that's
as for it and the city of Montreal. Actually
[43:59] passed legislation twenty fifteen and and at
that point if anything that would have
[44:06] been much easier if montreal had somehow found
the way to just pass it right across all
[44:12] the all the island, the Montreal, I think would
burning given the health if you just
[44:18] look up the health Canada or the IPA or the
Canadian Redcross Canadian Association
[44:24] or heart and stroke foundation. They also you
the same thing with smoke is terrible. Whether
[44:29] you are breeding at the campfire. Whether it's
yours someone your neighbours is in
[44:34] it from your chimney if their walking and the
other thing is that would smoke in wintertime
[44:40] for this way from your fireplace. Would smoke
things to actually not go right up in
[44:46] the air and actually things to hanging law
in the atmosphere, and so that the fine particle
[44:53] two point for five can actually enter the Windows
of all your neighbours home, so they
[44:59] indirectly our breeding in with smoke and let's
face it. It's up with their choice. So I'll
[45:06] do you and the people who want to work Burns
would have a choice and wanting to burn wood,
[45:13] but the fact that the matter is your neighbors
are not by giving the choice of not having
[45:17] to have to breathe in with toxic with smoke
and top of that with smoke is worse than
[45:23] burning coal with smoke is worse than smoking
cigarettes and I even red and surprisingly
[45:30] that with smoke is worse than breeding in careful
car exhaust so that's that's the reasons
[45:39] why just complain I heard you take it. Ain't
was gonna see it. But I didn't here and whether
[45:47] it is time for the president and I've had talked
about everything about it and the
[45:52] contact magazine and many people have come
to me the biggest thing they say when I
[45:57] say why don't you come here and complain is
the most time goes. They're afraid of complaining
[46:03] about their neighbours. They don't want to
have a bad relationship and yet. I want
[46:08] one individual who wrote me a member of their
family actually had cancer the doctor who can
[46:14] understand why that person has cancer never
never smoked the day in the life, I've been
[46:20] residence and beaconsfield for twenty years
and that family is unwilling to ask the neighbours
[46:27] stop with burning and I can't believe it because
I've said to the individual like you mean,
[46:33] you're placing your health at risk because
you want to have good relationship with your
[46:38] family. So I think it's only for that people
who would think about their neighbours and
what
[46:44] they're doing to anyone? Who has his breeding
in toxic with smoke. Thank you for the answer
[46:52] as long as it's coming from Beaconsfield. It's
more what I was looking for compared to the
[46:57] environmental committee, but if it's coming
from the residence understand. Time and other
[47:05] questions. I would like you to just look up
research on with smoke and all the health in
the
[47:13] effect that it has on anyone who breathes with
smoke. Thank you for your questions. Thank
[47:21] you, Walter. D'autres questions? Any other
questions? Alright. We're all proceed with
the
[47:29] regular agenda. Adoption of the President of
Beaconsfield Regular council meeting of

all
[55:18] there were ongoing work. WE have a election

in. Il n'y aura pas de réunion au mois
[55:28] d'octobre. So what that means is that if you
have plan to put troupes, please stay in contact
[55:34] with urban planning, but the next cut off that
for the place to be reviewed by on November
[55:39] on the prochaine opportunité d'échéancier

C'est
[55:44] le 8 novembre qui est relié à la réunion

see what
[55:52] happens and maybe it will be a new council
of some kind at that point, so that will also
[55:58] take place after the election so november at
the gates of that November twenty sixth will
[56:04] be the next day of the meeting and those project
will be reviewed at the council of
[56:08] meeting, because people will put in projects
for all the sequence will be on the
[56:13] fifteenth of December, if I'm not mistaken
which will be the way. Le 15 décembre, pour
le
[56:16] conseil, pour l'approbation finale de ces projets
là. So no other comments about the
[56:21] projects, we just went through but so I proposing
the minute at the same time. À l'unanimité
[56:32] of the traffic advisory committee meeting of
september twelve twenty twenty five.
[56:37] Monsieur le Président, est-ce qu'il y a des
commentaires? Oui. Merci, Monsieur le Maire.
Donc,
[56:42] cette dernière réunion du comité consultatif
de circulation du 12 septembre
[56:47] était la dernière réunion, évidemment,
de notre mandat de quatre ans, qui se termine
[56:52] aujourd'hui avec la séance du conseil, un
peu comme mon collègue l'a mentionné,
[56:56] J'aimerais prendre un moment pour remercier
tous les résidents qui, au fil des
[57:01] dernières années, ont participé aux travaux
du comité. Sans eux, ça serait impossible
de faire
[57:07] le travail que nous avons accompli. Et tu fundamental
that residence participate in
[57:11] in committee like that, because they are the
eyes of the years and in fact eventually also
the
[57:19] voice that we on on the track and eventually
their recommendations is either
[57:26] carried or not by the council and that respect
one of the last things that was achieved.
[57:33] I think that needs to be highlighted is the
last story measures to mitigate trafic
[57:41] around our schools and beaconsfield boulevard
that you've probably noticed in the
[57:45] last three weeks. There's a elegant elongated
speedbump in front of saint Antoine. Now
[57:52] there's erased intersections near saint Rémy
and another speedbump on Beaconsfield,
[57:59] Boulevard Near Christmas Park school. So I
think that's a nice way to conclude the tax
[58:06] mandate for this council, I think again. Tous
les membres citoyens the administration for
[58:11] their participation, the municipal petrol.
WE had the chance to work with former
[58:17] Captain Oz and newly appointed Captain Dutchman.
Thank you for your participation the SPVM and
[58:26] I will have it over to my colleague David Newell.
Thank you also for his participation.
[58:34] Evening of thanks. I just want to thank you
two for your eyes. I'm on the committee with
you
[58:38] at the same time. But if you don't mind it
just had that you do this regularly and I just
[58:42] want to take the opportunity to what you do
regularly as that there's also a special email
[58:46] when you have traffic issues and so on you
can email the committee directly so we like
[58:52] to promote that email and a regular basis.
So thank you for give me a chance to do that
[58:56] again. So it's ccc at Beaconsfield dot c-a
ccc at Beaconsfield that you can write
[59:02] in any kind of issue, you have with traffic
in the Beaconsfield and it goes
[59:06] directly to the committee. It goes on our agenda
and get reviewed the most efficient way
[59:11] of of putting in your request. WE. Yes! Thanks
for the Comité de circulation du Comité des
[59:19] consultatifs de circulation. WE just go by
the acronym, so often that we will not forget
[59:25] what I mean. Yeah! And just as a reminder cause
where you will be up and when we get to speak
[59:31] to the public again. So also if there is issues
that revolved speeding and so what you can
[59:35] actually even deal with the SPVM directly if
you go with the SPVM websites there the one
[59:40] that are very good to to deal with you can
ask for free surveillance. If you go on the
[59:45] website, you'll see you are very easy way pathway
to find how to communicate with them as
[59:49] well as going through the committee under Martin
preview for the after now at least.
[59:54] Monsieur le Président, est ce que vous allez
proposer? J'hésite mais finalement oui,
[1:00:00] je vais proposer. Et puis j'aimerais. Second
et j'appuie en faveur à l'unanimité.
[1:00:13] Procès-verbal de la réunion du Comité consultatif
de l'environnement du 9 septembre
[1:00:20] 2025. Monsieur le Président. Alors, à notre
dernière réunion, nous avons discuté quelques
[1:00:30] items qui étaient, qui sont très intéressants
pour nos résidents. Premièrement,
[1:00:36] c'était le fait que nous avons passé la législation
sur le chauffage à bois et le.
[1:00:46] Chauffage à bois with Smoke dans nos maisons.
Et c'est, comme j'ai mentionné tout à
[1:00:52] l'heure, c'était un règlement qui est passé,
surtout à Montréal le 19 avril, et les
[1:01:00] municipalités défusionnées. I also like
to mention that I didn't before the level is
[1:01:06] actually passed legislation as well that takes
affect in twenty twenty six and that's
[1:01:12] five hundred population and the fact that I
also hear that the CMM, so that's the community
[1:01:18] for it. What is that for? Métropolitains at
that point the user which represents
[1:01:28] something like two point for million people.
There is actually very large interest
[1:01:34] and their part to actually ben woodburn and
one of the things I heard was that even the
town
[1:01:40] of saint sever, which you know for you would
thing to think you know. There's there's
[1:01:45] naturally it's. How you know when everybody
is burning would but there actually actually
[1:01:50] supporting that move to be in bed would not
that I want to be in the point. But it's just
[1:01:58] something that I think we're seeing more and
more of at the same time for our agenda was
[1:02:04] really talking about flooding and when you
know and and beaconsfield, and we know that
[1:02:09] certainly with global warming that it that
point where were seeing more extreme events
[1:02:16] scientists are now not calling it climate change
but climate crisis and and we're starting
[1:02:22] to see those extreme events actually come and
affect us in fact, just we have two and
[1:02:30] twenty twenty twenty twenty for we've had two
torrential rainstorm and twenty twenty
[1:02:38] three we saw seven millimeters of rainfall
and the period of twelve hours and in twenty
[1:02:46] twenty for we actually had the same amount
seven millimeters of rain that fell in six
hours.
[1:02:52] So obviously, it's it's not just here in Beaconsfield
with the amount of water that that
[1:02:58] came down, but across virtually Montreal and
and many areas that that were in undated with
[1:03:04] that kind of torrential rain. The company is
certainly interested in in the city and
[1:03:10] council, having commission and independent
engineering study back in september twenty
twenty
[1:03:16] for following the rainstorm to basically analyze
and study and recommend any changes to our
[1:03:22] storm water drainage system. So it's something
that that is still in in the works, and I
[1:03:28] know that they are DJ the director general
as indicated that once they received the
[1:03:34] report. They want to talk to our neighbours
in city like Kirkland and and Pointe-Claire
[1:03:42] because they actually the origination of our
main storm sur Storm sewers that flow into
[1:03:50] meadowbrook and also the saint James Park and
into the lake actually originate and
[1:03:56] northwest sectors of Beaconsfield. So it, let's
call it the area of Kirkland and and
[1:04:00] the forties on the North West side and the
South East side, originate and Pointe-Claire.
So
[1:04:06] the city wants to take that study to those
the community because we want to share that
[1:04:12] information and and see how how much water
they might be flowing into into our ar men
[1:04:20] some source and at the same time the city wants
to talk to Montreal as well because there
[1:04:27] is responsible for all of the storm network
storm water network across the island of
[1:04:32] Montreal, so that certainly something that
coming, the city will be publishing to residence,
[1:04:38] and I'm sure everybody is gonna be interested
in in understanding that that report.
[1:04:44] I hope I've got it fairly correct with all
right all the other thing is the committee
[1:04:48] actually worked on its priority for twenty
twenty six. There were three main ones one
is the
[1:04:54] importance of maintaining the trees and tree
canopy and Beaconsfield. It's interesting
[1:05:00] and you know it. If you look at community when
you're driving down any street what makes the
[1:05:10] community look so much better or are saying
three on the streets and I think in
[1:05:16] Beaconsfield. WE are very proud of the tree
canopy, but I've been certainly there mature
[1:05:22] trees and and many have been cut and falling
we want to replace those trees and that
[1:05:26] the same time trees. Also are our basically
the easy answer to our global warming problems
[1:05:34] because trees and growing will actually absorb
carbon, which has its carbon and that's
[1:05:42] causing global warming and to begin with it's
difficult to to control, but we're looking
in
[1:05:46] every little way that we can and so certainly
promoting trees and our property is
[1:05:54] environmentallyfriendly and the other thing
I would I would mention because flooding. This
[1:05:58] is also an issue. The residents are concerned
about in Beaconsfield and I've tried
[1:06:02] that one tree Hill actually absorbs for the
fifty thousands of water a year or thirty-five
[1:06:10] were forty-five thousands leaders so for residence
who complaint about having soggy
[1:06:16] loans or what have you may be the answer is
another tree with the city also offers.
[1:06:24] Somebody's three programs and so that point.
Residence can interested and having a tree
[1:06:32] can actually get it interesting and there's
a variety of of trees that are being offered
on
[1:06:40] the program. So that's been available in the
past. That's it will be up to the next
[1:06:46] council to budget for it, but it's certainly
a good initiative and I would say that
[1:06:50] for the two twenty twenty five roughly well
exactly two hundred for the seven trees
[1:06:56] have been planted under that program. So I
could use to the people who who have volunteers
[1:07:02] to get it three seconds priority is actually
to promote biodiversity gardens to benefit
[1:07:10] bees and butterfly's pollinator and actually
plant life and and other animals life and twenty
[1:07:16] twenty six. The city has a plant to plant a
biodiversity gardens and in Royal Park, and
[1:07:26] that's something that's going to act as a great
example to all residence of how they can
[1:07:30] emulate what the plant will be chosen for that
that park in their own backyard or our side
[1:07:38] yard and it doesn't have to be big. It can
be just very effective just be two to be two
[1:07:46] leaders gardens, but it's a great way. The
real park will be to actually promote
[1:07:54] biodiversity gardens, There's no question with
global warming and climate crisis. WE have
to
[1:08:00] do things that you know are important bit by
bit to the basically slice of our planet
[1:08:08] and the last priority is basically to promote
environmentallyfriendly
[1:08:14] friendly way of living and lifestyle and certainly
the committee advocates education
[1:08:22] and communications to try to you know and for
people of what they should could be
[1:08:26] considering doing the committee also wants
to identify leaders ambassadors and and and
[1:08:32] residents who who actually leave a very environmental
environmental quality of life
[1:08:40] and we're open as well that you know the garden
itself at the real park will be an
[1:08:46] inspiration to people I do want to thank my
committee members as well for their engagement
[1:08:52] and interest and the education, and I should
also give a special thanks to the council.
[1:08:58] I don't think I thank you and my earlier remarks.
It's been a pleasure working with all of
[1:09:02] you and so I'll certainly miss you, you know.
But anyway, I can reach out to you here, come
[1:09:08] here and as well. So thanks again and are you
in your mind and I thank you. Mr. I. I Sir
[1:09:26] Roger. Sorry about that en faveur. I'm against.
Any means of the cultural and leisure

faire un petit décompte de ce qu'on a
[1:10:14] discuté à la dernière rencontre. Where you
are addressing some problems with our registration
[1:10:20] system by changing it for the spring, so when
we're gonna be signing up for classes, etc.
[1:10:26] It's gonna it should be a little bit easier
this system will have more capacity for
[1:10:32] large volume of people hoping on early at I
am to sign up for for class and as seen in
our
[1:10:40] accounts payable report. We're in for some
items that are now so one of them is dead in
park
[1:10:46] is completed as well as the blinders annex
renovations so with the gazebo and made the
[1:10:56] area much more accessible so that folks of
all mobility ability can get out there and
[1:11:04] enjoy it. So this area is open to residence
and club association to reserve. So it's
[1:11:12] a extended space for all. Two more points one
being that we also finished putting en
[1:11:20] acrylic coating on that heights park. So this
is part of it projects to roll out and some
[1:11:26] of our timesquare. To improve its playability
and so we'll see what the what the feedback
[1:11:34] is like next year and the recreation center
renovation plants are at 10 %. So we're
[1:11:40] looking to go out for tender in the fall. So
the fall is months left. So I guess that's
very
[1:11:48] soon. December, fifteen December fifteenth.
That's still the fall. Okay, I wrote
[1:11:53] that down and that's it for me. And I propose
your. Favor. À l'unanimité. Nomination d'un

Roger. Piou piou. Oui, j'aimerais. J'ai le
[1:12:12] plaisir de nommer Phoebe Baumgartner comme

[1:12:27] public policy and public administration, she
works in policy management and research
[1:12:34] with a major organization and on the personal
level. Phoebe is very interested in our
[1:12:43] ecosystem with special interest in the biodiversity
gardens, which certainly is a priority
[1:12:47] for for our environmental committee and at
the same time is strictly and advocate for
[1:12:53] sustainable development and so at that point.
It's very very happy to nominate Phoebe for
[1:13:00] our committee of the proposing. And fever à

[1:13:31] l'unanimité approbation du plan de gestion

2025,
[1:13:40] Propose. À l'unanimité. Mayor's Report on
the decision made by the Agglomeration Council
at
[1:13:53] its meeting of September Twenty-fifth twenty
twenty five. As I said before Carolyn
[1:14:03] Markham, did have a question in the STM and
more rows and to the agglomeration. Madame
[1:14:13] Mazerolle, who is part of the executive committee?
Give her and answer is totally
[1:14:24] unsatisfactory as an answer and I tried to
intervene to get. Corrected the answer that
she
[1:14:34] she was given by that was given to her. I was
not giving the. Right to to to speak. So I
[1:14:46] walked out, I walked out of my last meeting
at the agglomerations. I don't need to
[1:14:53] tell you that the agglomeration as far as I'm
concerned to think it is and abuse of power
[1:15:00] on the power of Montreal and I will certainly
continue to be totally against the way, the
[1:15:10] agglomeration operating all we do is approve
millions of dollars of expenses. Some of
[1:15:21] them are questionable when it when it comes
to the splits between the the the
[1:15:31] municipalities and Montreal. WE tried to check
it as much as we can we get ensure that are
not
[1:15:43] always satisfactory. So we just end up spending
millions de dollars and since the
[1:15:51] municipalities have minority vote we have no
choice but to accept what is on the agenda,
[1:16:02] so? That's my last meeting at the agglomération.
Thank God, However is going, However is
[1:16:10] going to replace my good luck. And you really
feel good George. WE. Oui, merci Monsieur le
[1:16:26] Maire. Donc quelques rapports habituels, mais

shape. Financially you so so I was not
[1:24:02] gonna talk anymore. But I'm gonna just there's
this kind of vibe out there. That's a we're
[1:24:10] in the financial Turmoil. We're not everybody
relax. Okay. Our city finance, our healthy,
okay,
[1:24:18] Our city is incredibly well managed financially.
And I'm not sure who was that was it?
[1:24:23] Maybe Carolyn that said you know the next council
and the next maire have to have a
[1:24:28] strong financial achievements. Yep, Spot on.
Okay. So he was ever sitting there and the
rest
[1:24:34] of the fox sitting here, of course. Our finance
are important. Now do we have
[1:24:40] challenges and do we have questions is coming
up of course. WE do you know, of
[1:24:48] course. WE do the cost of running. This show
called Beaconsfield is not going down.
[1:24:54] Okay, It's not going down. It's say it to the
Mike Cost of running. Beaconsfield is going
[1:24:58] up folks. Just that's all except that, but
that's not something to be afraid about
[1:25:04] and we do have a big infrastructure project.
There's a lot of construction happening
[1:25:09] down at the park over there. If you guys have
a notice, we cut a whole right into the fence
[1:25:14] and there's a new stuff going in and we have
to build our rec center. This stuff is going
to
[1:25:19] cost money folks. That's okay. That's not something
to be scared about that something to
[1:25:25] embrace and come up with the financial solutions
that works and respect taxpayers ability
[1:25:30] to pay. Hi hi, I'm gonna let everybody know
when secrets if we don't do it next year. It's
[1:25:36] gonna cost more next year right and if we don't
do it next year. It's gonna cost more to the
[1:25:44] point where we won't be able to do it because
it all cost too much, then you're losing the
[1:25:48] services and that's the decision that council
needs to embrace and have the courage to
[1:25:54] move forward with which I like to think we've
been courage is over the last few years and
[1:26:00] we've got a lot done and I can only hope that
the next four years. Will continue and Mr
[1:26:06] Boileau. Thank you and your team. OK? Thanks
all out, George. Sorry, I took a little
[1:26:15] bit more time now, I don't think thank you.
Thank you nightmare before. Go ahead with.
[1:26:24] What you want to see something. Not right.
Not only if you're in the meeting. Okay. By
the
[1:26:32] closing of the meeting will be the last official
Duty of Roger or not so first, we have one
[1:26:40] more items. That's not on the agenda. Madame
Greffier, si vous permettez. So George, this
[1:26:46] is your last council meeting. I hope it's been
a while. WE usually don't think each other
[1:26:52] this much. Everybody was stunning in for the
first time. It's more. It's very
[1:26:55] exceptional. I have more days to think about
the city here and this environment. This is
[1:27:00] your your last so to speak. So it's at the
announcement, Mister Bear. Roger. So from
[1:27:09] there with people don't know where is the kind
of glorified name for somebody, who would
[1:27:14] have anything ever happen to george you, I'll
take turns being that where we would
[1:27:17] replace the bears. So I guess in this case.
I'm sure of acting when I'm saying. I want
[1:27:23] to see you next WE have one more taste for
you tonight is very important one probably
one
[1:27:27] of the most important ones tonight and and
have to be around all of council with us
[1:27:32] tonight is well, but to do this task. WE can't
see here. WE are going to actually have to
go
[1:27:37] and stand in front. WE have to get our break
and stand in front of our our bench. So if
[1:27:42] everybody could well you can learn on the back,
but if we could have everybody could join
[1:27:48] in the front. I think that would be back all
of you to go. Yeah, we're going to shake
[1:27:53] things up a little tonight do something different.
Félicitations, Georges. C'était
[1:28:03] très différent. Parce que là, je n'en suis
pas là. Je parle bien. C'est pas bon. So maybe
[1:28:17] you guys and just will make a nice little vif
camera and everybody can see us so so I'm
[1:28:23] I don't ever speak on behalf of all of council.
But I'm just gonna say a few words. I think
[1:28:29] that represents a lot of people that are around
us tonight here and but I have one question
[1:28:35] before I say anything and I just wanted to
maybe it's almost your last chance, but on
[1:28:38] camera. Here is your last chance. Will you
be running for mer and twenty in the next
[1:28:44] election. Now you haven't changed your mind.
Non, non, alright, so we heard it here.
[1:28:48] First first boys and girls. Were first of all
that one task. Thank you for accepting. But
we
[1:28:54] know what we want to do next is certainly a
story of honor and celebrate your accomplishments
[1:29:00] over the past twelve years of mentioned a few
tonight. I'm not gonna lost them all. That's
[1:29:06] for sure. But I think the obvious one is that
you've been our made for twelve years. It's
[1:29:10] three turns and I'm not sure if people if you
look back over the years, but we haven't had
[1:29:16] that and beaconsfield and some time so this
is quite a milestone if you have to go
[1:29:20] back to the past. The night is over the years
ago to have a mère. It's like our city for
[1:29:26] three years now, we'll be right back in the
day. Who was created the back in that era,
[1:29:32] so you're sitting in good company. I would
say for having injured and. Survive even in
[1:29:38] the way, but but done that so well over the
past twelve years so in terms of the month
of
[1:29:44] lifted a lot of the night and we will be here
for another cup of our if we start going
[1:29:50] through those so I'm gonna give it and actually
what we would like to do on behalf of council.
[1:29:54] Here is also basically. Thank you for all those
years of service and working with us
[1:30:00] throughout the years some of us been here for
for years and years twelve years right here
[1:30:06] for thirty-five. WE look pretty good Rodgers
and and other countless who were not here
[1:30:12] tonight. They have been working with George.
Also should be taking and consideration for
[1:30:18] this as well. So we have we appreciate all
the up and down and we agreed to disagree and
a
[1:30:24] lot of things over the years. But I think we've
done that so professionally over the years.
[1:30:30] That's made it. It's a pleasure for all of
us to work with you and your leadership that
way,
[1:30:34] but I think probably most importantly of all
is that with you leading us through all of
[1:30:38] that is we all worked together in our different
ways to ultimately continues to make
[1:30:42] beaconsfield one of the best things that we
can leave in, so that's the ultimate goal that
[1:30:48] we try to achieve. So we thank you for your
leadership and gathering gathering us all
[1:30:52] around to do that and the ongoing basis the
number one, so the other thing was actually
[1:30:58] great. Kelly said this really well. At recent
events where you were honored and received
[1:31:06] National assembly service award. I believe
it that's the title for it, but it's a very
[1:31:10] prestigious award that was given and so we
also like to thank your family alone here
[1:31:16] tonight. But I know there's other member of
your family as well not here tonight for this.
[1:31:22] So well, I thought I had it that Greg Kelly,
that is that you? Your family. Let us you
[1:31:28] for twelve twelve years. But now it's time
to give him back, so so so. So thank you for
that
[1:31:38] and thank you and the family for basically
lending us George for these two years. The
other
[1:31:44] thing to is why not sure what you have planned
for your retirement, but pretty well.
[1:31:50] Welcome back anytime. The only issues you're
going to have as you are. You won't have your
[1:31:54] fob. So it's gonna be kind of hard to get into
the building, so with that in mind. WE will
[1:31:58] work at the present you something. It's a secret
here, but basically, we like the
[1:32:04] present George Burrell our mere for the past
twelve years in the city of Beaconsfield. So
[1:32:11] this. This is just to say this something this.
Thank you. So so George. This is a symbol of
[1:32:22] our appreciation our respect and our thanks
for everything. You've done for for us and
for
[1:32:28] Beaconsfield and everybody tuning in and we'll
tuning eventually so thank you for
[1:32:32] everything. Now Alan throws me out of the house.
I can come to the city all with the way you
[1:32:40] have the key there. It's a good time. But I'm
sure so thank you. Thank you again, George.
It's a
[1:32:50] pleasure to work with for twelve years with
different counselor. Roger was the only
[1:32:58] one that was here from the beginning, but it
was a real pleasure, we had differences on
[1:33:08] certaines things but we always managed to get
consensus and that's important and that you
[1:33:16] used to go around the table and saying. OK?
What do you think? What do you think? What
do you
[1:33:22] think and we have consensus, so? It was a pleasure.
This city is a wonderful city and. You know
[1:33:33] I'm very happy to make the contributions that
we are going to make to the cultural center.
[1:33:40] It's absolutely, you know something that will
be a signature project for years and
[1:33:50] years to come very much like the rec center
has been and the rec center is now going to
be
[1:33:56] ringwood so with the center and the new cultural
center and the library. There is this city
[1:34:06] will be a wonderful place to living and I want
to just wish everybody. Et. Good campaign.
I
[1:34:18] mean some of you may not need the campaign,
but still a good campaign and I encourage
[1:34:26] everyone to go and both because it's important
and if you don't want you can't criticize after
[1:34:36] the the choice of the of the council. Because
you don't you didn't both so you had
[1:34:42] absolutely no no. Say in the the council itself.
So I encourage everybody and
[1:34:52] beaconsfield to go and I know that it's very
difficult to get the high percentage of voting,
[1:35:00] but please, please go and vote I mean you will
have a new maire. You will have some new
[1:35:08] counselor and you. It's your choice as to whoever
is going to get elected where I will say
[1:35:17] thank you. This is about you right now. So
we want to thank you for for everything. You've
[1:35:22] done so again. Thank you for all your work
over the years even on behalf of everybody.
