members of the municipal council have taken
[3:19]
note of the agenda from here
[3:21]
after and which was contained in the life
[3:23]
of convocation and who renounces its
[3:25]
reading. Given that the order of the day has been
[3:28]
submitted, I would need a
[3:30]
proposer. I will propose Mr. [
[3:32]
Name],
[3:33]
so Mr. Patrick Sanguer proposes
[3:35]
to adopt the order of the
[3:36]
extraordinary session of June 22, 2026 as
[3:39]

[3:41]
no request for a vote. It is adopted
[3:42]
unanimously.
[3:43]
We will now move on to item 4, which is: I
[3:46]
will now give the floor to Mr. [Name],
[3:48]
pleasure, granting of an
[3:51]
asphalt service contract in the amount of 39467
[3:55]
and 75,
[3:57]
considering the need to redo
[3:58]
the asphalt in front of the entrance to the
[4:00]
leisure park following the incident that occurred
[4:04]
during the week of June 15.
[4:06]
Considering that the city has identified
[4:08]
various locations for Saintaché road for
[4:10]
a similar intervention, either facing
[4:13]
476
[4:14]
506 and 529 Saint-Eachilé. Considering the
[4:18]
submission filed by the company
[4:20]
Pavage SM for the execution of
[4:23]
all the work in the total amount
[4:25]
of 39467
[4:27]
and 75.
[4:29]
Considering that this expenditure is in
[4:30]
accordance with the provisions of regulation
[4:32]
number 663-26
[4:35]
on contract management that it
[4:37]
can be carried out on a negotiated basis. Therefore
[4:40]
, I propose to accept the
[4:43]
bid submitted by the
[4:45]
paving company SM for the execution of the
[4:47]
asphalt work in front of the entrance to the
[4:49]
recreation park as well as in the places
[4:51]
identified on Saintchué Road. to award
[4:54]
for this purpose a contract to the company
[4:56]
paragant of 39467
[4:59]
and 75 before tax to authorise the
[5:02]
director of public works Mr
[5:04]
Dave Tremblé to take all steps
[5:06]
and assign all documents necessary for the
[5:08]
realization of this resolution.
[5:11]
THANKS. So there is no request for a
[5:13]
vote. It was adopted unanimously. We
[5:15]
have reached point 5 of the
[5:16]
question period.
[5:23]
Good morning, Mr. Mayor. Hello everyone
[5:24]
.
[5:26]
Um, I wanted to know what kind of
[5:27]
work is going to be done under
[5:29]
the road, the infrastructure. Yes, you're going to
[5:32]
put the fat one there, but I want to
[5:33]
know what's going to be done
[5:34]
underneath.
[5:35]
First, they will
[5:36]
repair it, which means they will remove
[5:38]
what is currently present and
[5:40]
then they will resurface the
[5:43]
path. So there is no
[5:45]
major infrastructure to redo the entire
[5:47]
roadway and it is really a
[5:49]
surface that is done considering that the
[5:53]
thaw period has passed and on a
[5:56]
day that will not rain, it is certain because it
[5:58]
must not rain while
[5:58]
the work is being done, this is the work
[6:00]
that will be done.
[6:02]
OK.
[6:04]
Second question, can I go right away
[6:05]
for the second one?
[6:06]
Yes.
[6:08]
Why isn't this done
[6:10]
internally since
[6:13]
we only have the equipment for over-sales? Yes, it's
[6:14]
the equipment we don't have and then it's the
[6:16]
driver too, it's a beer we
[6:18]
call so it's a device where we
[6:20]
unload the room inside if we want.
[6:22]
It's extended and then a thickness which is
[6:24]
to put that so it makes a
[6:26]
larger surface, it's not extended to the ru
[6:28]
so it does a good job in reality,
[6:30]
it makes a better repair bing
[6:34]
conductor which is at distribution which is
[6:36]
capable of driving the device.
[6:39]
THANKS.
[6:42]
Hello advisor, regarding the
[6:47]
control and approval, was it
[6:49]
by invitation or invitations
[6:52]
made by Mr. Tremble? There were
[6:53]
no invitations that were made by invitation. Yes, it was just an
[6:55]
invitation; it's
[6:57]
really two different terms.
[6:59]
Yeah, I understand. But what I mean is
[7:00]
, is it in the sense that
[7:05]
you called someone from the
[7:07]
company and then gave them the
[7:08]
contract?
[7:09]
You want to know if there was more than
[7:10]
one person who
[7:10]
Yeah, well that's it, it's because again
[7:12]
just to have better prices
[7:13]
when you have
[7:16]
several quotes.
[7:17]
It was done there. We consult people,
[7:18]
we look at people who are
[7:20]
able to do it in the cases
[7:21]
we need. We look at the people who are
[7:23]
available, we evaluate the
[7:25]
costs that are being done and requested at
[7:26]
that time, and we see that it is definitely the
[7:28]
person who will meet our needs at the
[7:33]
lowest price, that's for sure. At the
[7:34]
same time,
[7:36]
several people who have been following, I don't have
[7:38]
the details of this
[7:40]
element,
[7:43]
we will be able to verify it.
[7:46]
The approach is not to save money. The
[7:48]
approach is made in the sense that there are
[7:50]
always
[7:52]
companies that are
[7:55]
capable of doing this work. I
[7:57]
think there were two or three
[7:58]
companies in the Quebec City area that
[8:00]
are in the process of doing so. That's the
[8:01]
information I had. So, the
[8:03]
checks were carried out in that
[8:05]
direction. I have another question.
[8:07]
Yeah. The subject is, why isn't it
[8:10]
announced on the city's website that
[8:12]
you're looking for
[8:14]
someone to do this type of work?
[8:17]
We're taking note of that, and it might be
[8:18]
something to develop further
[8:19]
because we've just learned that there's
[8:22]
a special meeting, and all we
[8:25]
know is that there's an amount to be spent on this, we don't know
[8:26]
where, we don't know if anyone was
[8:29]
interested, who was able to participate, or who was
[8:31]
n't invited
[8:33]
because, normally, the website and
[8:35]
calls for tenders should be the same.
[8:39]
But not this kind of call for tenders
[8:40]
because, in reality, it's
[8:43]
less than 125,000. So we didn't issue a formal
[8:45]
call for tenders for
[8:47]
that. However, some
[8:50]
companies have been contacted and
[8:52]
the money is already allocated in the
[8:54]
budget. There are already funds allocated over the years
[8:56]
for reflection,
[8:58]
and for large areas where we
[8:59]
wanted to make a good repair, that's why we're here
[9:01]
to give
[9:02]
control. That's why we're going to hold
[9:03]
a meeting tonight
[9:05]
to vote on the resolution to give
[9:06]
control. It's
[9:09]
as if it's not very
[9:10]
transparent. We agree, that's your
[9:13]
opinion [clears throat] for
[9:13]
transparency, but all
[9:15]
the administrative procedures are
[9:17]
done in accordance with the fines and the
[9:20]
rules that we were asked to follow. We're not going to go against
[9:22]
that, otherwise it would be
[9:24]
the opposite of what we're used to, as they say. No no
[9:27]
, all the rules are in place,
[9:28]
there is transparency. Well, if we can
[9:31]
possibly make requests or
[9:33]
register them, we'll see how it
[9:34]
works. I cannot answer that
[9:36]
point. I am not informed enough
[9:37]
to know what the process was regarding the
[9:39]
obligations that were fulfilled during
[9:41]
that time. And it's certain that when we
[9:43]
call upon entrepreneurs, whatever
[9:44]
the reasons, we always
[9:46]
call upon all the entrepreneurs
[9:48]
who have already offered their service or
[9:50]
whom we know who provide the services
[9:51]
at the same time in order to offer it to as many
[9:53]
people as possible so as not to favor
[9:55]
one person over another. That's
[9:57]
it. That's clear.
[9:59]
THANKS.
[10:02]
So there are no other questions?
[10:04]
As the question period is
[10:05]
over, we proceed to the session on
[10:07]
the year of the session. It is noted that
[10:08]
all the items on the agenda were
[10:09]
discussed. I propose, sir
[10:13]
[laughs]
[10:16]
thank you very much to everyone present.
[10:19]
It's
