[0:30] Thank you. Thank you sir. Good evening. Thank you. Be seated. DC Premier, je vous vous. OU

[0:53] acheter e voir reunion special topics la agenda. Pour. An adjustment a resolution pour le

[1:05] financement de la mouline on the government of Quebec. On a on a resolution. Transfer des

[1:15] changements pour felicité. La la la la la. Cause de la muela. So one of the items will be for

[1:25] the financing of the windmill. We received money from the Quebec government. We have to

[1:30] adapt our financing plan to adapt to their financing plan. So we're going to change our

[1:37] resolution. It will facilitate the financing of the work on the windmill. And the second

[1:42] item will be adjustments to our flooding financial plan. Obviously, we've had many, many.

[1:52] Demands and we found some little things that we didn't think about. So we're going to

[1:56] change some of the wording to facilitate and clarify, so that it would be easier for you guys

[2:00] to understand. And we'll be able to help when more causes. So those are the only two items

[2:05] that will be on the agenda. August 25th 7:00. All right. And it will be publicized

[2:10] closer to the date, but it is a special meeting. So sometimes it gets lost on the website. So

[2:14] I'm telling you now. So you got two weeks notice. All right. There you go. Okay. Come. Je je

[2:22] vous venir sur le program de financier pour la gestion des les ou sur les propriétaires

[2:31] residential. Le mois de nier. Je suis tres de la pour sa program. Nous avons. En santé

[2:40] du monde et sont déja approuvé. So we've we've received over 100 requests for the financial

[2:47] aid program. And so far we've already approved 60. And it's just because there's a process.

[2:52] It takes time. You need pictures and people have. So we're trying to get them

[2:57] approved as fast as we can. But it's been a good turnout. This is a very encouraging and shows

[3:02] that many homeowners are ready to take concrete actions to better protect their properties

[3:05] from heavy rainfall events. But also like to remind everyone that this program is first and

[3:13] foremost focused on prevention and adaptation. It provides financial assistance up to

[3:18] $5,000 for eligible work aimed at improving stormwater management to residential

[3:22] properties. You probably heard two in the newspapers, on the radio that are on the news that

[3:30] the city of Pointe-Claire has received $6.8 million from the government through their Oasis

[3:36] program. The Oasis program is a program to help municipalities adapt to climate change through

[3:43] infrastructure changes. We started a very rigorous process in November, looking at

[3:57] different things we had to do throughout the city, and we came up with 11 minute, one of

[4:01] the first ones that got done or being done right now is the one on Belmont and Sandalwood.

[4:06] That's part of the Oasis program, and the other projects will be implemented into our

[4:10] capital expenditures over the next two years, and they'll be realized. So again, thank you

[4:15] to the Quebec government for stepping up and giving us that money. So come on, anglais on

[4:20] the with $6.8 million and program the eight the financier, the program Oasis, the

[4:27] government of Quebec say poor aid the municipality. The. The. Fer de traverser le systeme

[4:36] infrastructure pour les. On a on a. To pour trouver solution dans la ville. Trouver un

[4:51] projet de la government accepted les projet dans les prochaines années de voir les

[5:00] travaux sur les projet de de la ville de Pointe-Claire. The other thing with the aid, the

[5:18] financial aid program for flooding, we told you about Echo Habitacion, who is a

[5:22] company that will come in and will contact you, and they'll evaluate your property and tell

[5:26] you what you need to do to make your house more water resilient. This program will only be up

[5:33] and running in September. The financial program and that we're supposed to be together

[5:38] and we're aiming for September, the two of them. But because of the last big rainfall, we

[5:43] decided to accelerate the financial aid to get you get the citizens money to start

[5:47] doing the work on the homes that they know they have to do. But the people that need the

[5:52] evaluations. It was always planned for September, and it's looking maybe a little bit

[5:56] sooner, but let's plan on September that you'll be able to reach out to them. They'll

[6:00] be able to come in and evaluate your your property for you. There is no number of houses

[6:05] we're going to say yes to or no to. It will be a time thing. This program is not going to

[6:10] die tomorrow. We're going to keep this program going until there's no, you know, many

[6:15] years for people to get the work done in their homes and understand what they have to do

[6:20] is going to take time. So we're going to the council has the power to adopt the financial

[6:25] aid that we've accepted for this program. If we have to put more money into it, we'll

[6:30] discuss it and we'll keep it going. So don't worry that it's in September and I'm not going

[6:34] to be the first 100 people. You're going to get refused. Nobody's going to get refused.

[6:39] It will just be a little bit longer than expected. All right. But it'll be a great program. I

[6:50] just for a a program echo the echo. Evaluate at Maison les besoin pour Felicity. Les

[7:04] maisons de plus efficace pour le lo. Le program. La la. Program. De voir la pour faire

[7:22] des travaux de la maison des. The evaluation. System. Mais pour quelqu'un qui. Avoir un

[7:33] bon evaluation plan. Les travaux. Avoir un plan that the regulator maison. And the other

[7:49] thing is that you probably seen or you've heard that we've changed our garbage collection,

[7:55] adapting to climate change. So we've been collecting garbage for the last eight years in the

[8:02] summertime, every week. We are going to continue that now to the end of October, because

[8:08] September and October are warmer, and that will facilitate that part of it.

[8:14] Composting will change in the winter time. It's going to go to every two weeks because the

[8:18] winter composting, it's cold, it doesn't smell, there's no issues. But I really want to

[8:23] make one strong message. Although we're increasing the garbage pickup every week until

[8:28] the end of October, Pointe-Claire, we're agreeing sustainable, environmental

[8:32] friendly city. We need to get used to composting. If you compost properly, you should

[8:38] have no garbage and you can put everything in your compost. You can put meat, bones, greasy

[8:43] things. So we've always done well. We're always number one or number two. But the

[8:48] government and the city of Montreal is going to get much, much stricter. And it's going

[8:52] to be harder and harder to keep pushing this program of picking up garbage every week. So start

[8:57] composting properly and you'll see that you won't have garbage, and you won't be asking us to

[9:01] extend the garbage anymore. So we don't know how long this program can last, maybe last

[9:06] one year or more, because the government will tell you you can't do it. So I'm asking you

[9:11] all be proud. Make Pointe-Claire proud. Let's be the lowest in garbage pickup in

[9:15] the highest in compost pickup. So start learning about it today. Thank you. For the they

[9:24] collect la la la la calendrier pour les poubelle en place de. Toute la mise en. La fin de

[9:36] octobre. Knocked up p pour la la compost. So what does it mean? Deliver me. Come on.

[9:49] Anglais, je demandé. Si vous plait. Si. Postage dans un village p. Avoir besoin de

[10:05] demande de voir. Okay. So si vous plait du p travail de compost. Merci beaucoup. You

[10:20] will see an initiative. Occur from August 20th 3rd to September 6th. I invite you to

[10:30] take part in the plasma donation drive being organized in collaboration with Hema

[10:34] Quebec at the Kirkland Donor Center. We often hear about blood donations, but much less

[10:40] about plasma donations. Yet plasma plays an essential role in the treatment of any

[10:45] patients, and the need continues to grow. Our Laura Z amici a vous avez un peu de je

[10:56] vous encourager vraiment comme moi et rendez vous a Québec pour participate. So it's the

[11:03] first time we're going to host this, the mayor's plasma drive. It's for ten days. And I would

[11:10] love us to be able to say that we had X number of citizens and be right up there. It's a great

[11:15] a great, great cause. I learned a lot about it lately. And blood is easy to give. Plasma

[11:20] is just as easy. It takes longer, but you can give it a lot more often and there's a

[11:24] lot more use for plasma. It goes into many, many things. Medication. And you being a

[11:29] nursing practitioner, you can tell us all the fancy stuff. No, no. So anyway, yeah, there's a

[11:35] lot of need for plasma. So please, if you have the time, take it and tell you they'll

[11:40] know you're from Pointe-Claire and you'll be welcome. Thank you. Lavender van der. Are very

[11:49] important for Pointe-Claire. Inauguration. A fisherman, William Bill Mcmurchie Park,

[11:58] Edgewater. Mr. It will be a special occasion to pay tribute to a former mayor who dedicated

[12:04] a significant part of his life, the city of Pointe-Claire, and to our community. The McMurtry

[12:09] family will be there along with members of council. I hope that many of you will join us to

[12:14] share this moment of remembrance and recognition. Let No Bull Park A in Couvert A

[12:25] take the time to enjoy a picnic and enjoy the festivities so the McMurtry family will be

[12:30] present. It's in Edgewater Park. The key to the. The. What's it in English? The key. The the.

[12:37] The key that was built in back in 2000 for the millennium year will be named after Mister

[12:42] McMurtry for his devotion to the city and everything else. So everybody's welcome starts

[12:46] at 1:00 on the 22nd of August. And there's a lot of other stuff happening. We've got the

[12:58] Blues Fest, Blues Festival, we've got all kinds of stuff happening in Pointe-Claire,

[13:02] we've got the bark in the park, all kinds of stuff happening this month. So take the time,

[13:06] go on the website and all the information is there. Thank you very much. Okay. Agenda. Oh,

[13:21] sorry, sorry, sorry. Ways of it. Mr. stark, will you come and say.

[13:32] >> Bonjour? I guess what I would say is that we had our town hall for water mitigation

[13:39] a couple of weeks ago, so. Or shall I? Person. It was a good heartfelt discussion was open.

[13:51] It was free. There was a lot of positivity. Then we switched online. We had about, I think 6

[13:57] or 7 people online. As. Unregistered. Mais je n'ai pas fait. J'ai fait une alors je

[14:04] voulais. I want to share with everybody, but unfortunately, my my electronic skills weren't

[14:10] at its best that day. Thereafter, you know, I visited many of the the Northview

[14:19] citizens that were flooded. If there's any other Northview citizens that were flooded that

[14:22] would like me to come by and give them a hand and such, just reach out to me. I'd like to

[14:28] thank the city as well for the hard work they're doing. It's not always apparent. I mean,

[14:32] it's p maybe, you know, we could always do things better, maybe in better communication,

[14:39] maybe a bit of this, a bit of that. But our intent is pure podosoje. La la microphone a la

[14:49] mer. >> Mr. Pourbaix. >> Yes. Hello, everybody. Thank

[14:53] you very much for coming out tonight. I second what Councilor Storch has mentioned.

[14:59] We did a Group seven, district seven, district eight water mitigation meeting, and I think

[15:03] it was a resounding success. We tried to provide some clarity. When I see the the new. UN peu

[15:12] de clarity sur la situation. Encore une fois, je vous merci beaucoup pour et la aujourd'hui.

[15:20] >> Romans Bienvenue a good evening and welcome to everyone. I hope the meeting is

[15:26] informative for you. >> Madam Kelly, >> You Bon soir Bienvenue.

[15:35] Important pour toutes les. Visité valoir des nouveaux signage dans la rue donegani et

[15:43] aussi je savant le supermarché juste pour aider avec la circulation et toutes les

[15:55] pedestrians aussi may say, just pour toute la pointe Claire pour vous. Vous dans Notre

[16:07] sector. So just as a reminder, we have two new signages that have gone up in the area in

[16:14] front of Wild Willy's on Donegani and in front of the Supermarché PA. And so it's

[16:19] just always important if we're thinking about how we're driving to go slowly, be

[16:23] careful, be mindful of pedestrians, that we share the road together. And that's just

[16:28] a reminder for the Valois sector. So thank you very much. >> Mr. Andrews. Brzezinski.

[16:37] >> Francois, for cellular le retour des déchets in September October, expanding weekly

[16:47] garbage pickup was an important commitment for me. When I was going door to door in the

[16:51] election campaign, it was in my platform brochure, and it was a big issue for a lot of people,

[16:56] particularly young families, people with pets and people who lived in townhouses, like the

[17:01] ones in Donegani, where with the garbage being close to the door, there was often an insect

[17:06] infestation. So people would bring me in the door to avoid both of us getting swarmed. So

[17:14] I'm very glad that we're able to do that. It's something that I advocated for as a member of

[17:19] council, and although the mayor and I do not always agree, I give him full credit for

[17:24] working with council and the administration for getting it done. Thank you.

[17:31] >> Mr. Tremblay. >> Merci, monsieur. Good evening. Bonsoir. Donc je une

[17:38] fois de plus tous ceux qui ont participé a la premiere session de co-creation consacrée au

[17:46] développement du Parc Hermitage dans mon district au nord de Pointe-Claire, une deuxieme

[17:52] session aura lieu le mercredi au center sportif Oliver Court de avant, ma savoir si vous

[18:00] vous souhaitez participer plaisir de vous informer. I'd like to once again thank

[18:06] everyone who participated in the first co-creation session on the future development of

[18:11] Hermitage Park back in June. A second session will be held Wednesday, August 19th at the

[18:17] Oliver Court Sports Center from 630 to 8 p.m. Let me know if you'd like to participate, and

[18:23] I'll follow up for you with additional information. Secondly, just a quick reminder

[18:28] for all residents that Brunswick Boulevard, Fairview Avenue and the service road are

[18:33] not drop off areas for REM commuters. That's an important thing to keep in mind. For

[18:40] security reasons, please use the designated areas to do so. Much safer. Better yet, you can

[18:45] use the STM walk, bike or bike to the REM. It's quite easy to get to the place when you get

[18:52] used to doing it. I'll do et tous les citoyens le Boulevard, Brunswick Avenue, Fairview et

[18:56] la voie de service NE sont pas des zones de debarquement pour les veillées utilisez. Les

[19:04] emplacements et effet, c'est beaucoup plus sécuritaires. Si vous NE pouvez prendre le ASTM

[19:12] ou pour vous rendre jusqu'a la merci. >> Merci, monsieur le Matthews.

[19:20] >> Tout le monde a. Passer un vacance de la construction et c'est tout le monde avec leur

[19:29] famille. So I just want to hope that everybody enjoyed their construction, holiday time off

[19:36] and time with family. And welcome back to Council. >> Thank you. Mr.

[19:48] >> Yes. La da da da par rapport a la cloture on le projet Belmont. Donc pour le part et

[20:01] donc la cloture voir la tour de la zone, trois terrains de soccer. So there was a question

[20:09] that was asked during the previous council meeting pertaining to the installation

[20:13] of a fencing on the terra cotta Belmont project. Essentially the fencing, there's four

[20:18] intervention zones, and the fencing will be installed on zone three, which is

[20:23] surrounding the soccer pitch. Thank you, thank you. They do. >> Du jour 1.1 adoption of the

[20:34] agenda. But before adoption, the adoption of the agenda, we have to remove 17 point one.

[20:45] Thank. The. >> 8.1. And the reason for being removed is that we just

[20:55] got some information a little bit too late, and we just want to make sure that we understand

[20:59] everything. That's the only reason why it's being removed. Thank you.

[21:07] >> 12.9 approval. >> Mover and seconder for 1.1. >> Kelly Thorstad.

[21:19] >> And 3.1 Mr. Mayor. >> 3.1 and the minutes. Yep. >> And I move to approve 1.1

[21:26] and 3.1 the agenda and the minutes from the previous meeting. Kelly Thorstad Cullen

[21:29] district three. >> Second by. >> Mike Kelsey.

[21:33] >> All in favor. Merci beaucoup. >> Catherine Baker. >> So just to remind you that

[21:49] everybody has a three minute timer up on the wall, and that way we'll all get a chance to

[21:54] speak. Thank you. >> Good evening, Mr. Mayor and council members. I'm here

[21:58] tonight because 80 child care spaces that serve primarily Pointe Claire families are at

[22:03] risk of being lost through the proposed redevelopment of 477 Delmar Avenue. I'm a resident

[22:08] of district three and a parent of two children who attend the Academy daycare. I'm speaking

[22:13] on behalf of many families who depend on this daycare every day. While the daycare is

[22:18] located in district eight, the majority of families it serves lives in district three, five,

[22:22] seven, and eight. For working parents, proximity matters childcare is part of our daily

[22:27] routine, and having care close to home allows us to spend more time with our children and

[22:31] maintain a better quality of life. The Daycare's location within residential areas also

[22:36] supports active transportation. During summer months, it's common to see bicycles,

[22:40] scooters and strollers lined up outside during pickup. This use of active transport should not

[22:44] be minimized. It highlights one of the many ways that living close to daycare increases

[22:48] quality of life. For many Pointe Claire families, the daycare proximity to the source

[22:53] station is another advantage for families who combine childcare drop off with their

[22:56] daily commute. The potential loss of this daycare would have a measurable impact between

[23:01] highway 20 and highway 40, and between Sources Boulevard and Saint John's Boulevard. There

[23:06] are six childcare centers providing 426 spaces for families looking for care in a

[23:12] center environment. The 80 spaces at the academy represent nearly 20% of the childcare

[23:19] capacity in this zone, losing one in every five child care spaces would place additional

[23:25] pressure on an already limited childcare system and force many families to seek care further

[23:29] from home. We often think of roads, parks, arenas and transit as essential municipal

[23:35] infrastructure, but child care is also essential infrastructure. Without it,

[23:39] parents cannot fully participate in the workforce, and communities become less

[23:43] attractive to young families. The city of Pointe Claire's strategic plan identifies

[23:47] attract and retain families as a key objective, and preserving child care spaces is directly

[23:52] aligned with that goal. Finally, I want to put it on public record that Academy Day is an

[23:58] exceptional example of community integration in early childhood education, and a

[24:02] model that should be celebrated and preserved. The children walk to Viking Pool four

[24:06] mornings a week during the summer for swimming lessons. They use the bus stop across

[24:10] the street to travel to Balbirnie Arena for skating lessons and to the aquatic

[24:13] center for gym and swim. They use Augusta Park for daily pickups, and they visit

[24:17] regularly. David Beck, Parc du Voyageur, Stockwell Park, North Northview Park and Arthur Park

[24:21] as part of their daily activities. This exceptional level of community integration

[24:26] is made possible in large part because of the daycares location on Delmar Avenue.

[24:30] Council is being asked to consider the future of this property. I respectfully ask

[24:33] that you also consider the value of the community service currently being provided there.

[24:39] Child care is not simply another commercial use. It is essential infrastructure that

[24:43] allows families to live, work and thrive in Pointe Claire. Before any decision is made, I

[24:47] urge council to carefully consider what would be lost if these 80 child care spaces

[24:51] disappear. While land can be redeveloped, community assets like this are far more

[24:55] difficult and costly to replace. Thank you for your time. >> Thank you very much. We've

[25:02] all discussed the council. I don't really have a lot to say except that, you know, the

[25:06] owner wants to sell the building or he sold the building. And it's been a big

[25:10] debate around the table. We understand the importance, but the gentleman has the right to

[25:14] sell the building and the person buying it. The zoning is already there for what he wants

[25:18] to do. So, you know, we've looked at it seriously and we'll see where the future

[25:22] plays out. Thank you, thank you. >> Bonjour, monsieur. My question concerns exactly.

[25:42] Point paascu. Donc je suis. Aussi Académie des petites qui est donc avenue del mar et du

[25:55] cou qui a EU un changement de la Purcell ouvrir la porte la voix. Du terrain au

[26:06] remplacement du batiment par des maisons individuelles et du coup moi. Quelques recherches

[26:16] sur pointe le ministere de la famille qui sont reparti sur. La ville de la Académie des

[26:29] petites plus pratiquement sur la ville de Pointe-Claire par. ET du cou. Moi je vois. Je veux

[26:44] pas. Mais je comprendre l'intéret pour la ville pour la communauté de changer et de

[26:56] permettre en fait des maisons a la place de qui apporte un service qui sont utiles. Merci

[27:04] pour votre attention. >> Merci beaucoup. >> Juste pour la changement de

[27:14] a déja été. Comme des. Important de savoir. >> Carl.

[27:32] >> I'd like to submit a. Copy. The same document. >> No, no, you give it to the

[27:40] legal department. Please. Just give it. >> So all the councilors, the

[27:45] mayor and the city manager have a copy of that plan? So some of you might have noticed that

[27:52] I've been asking for a plan. This is came out in various forms, including cartoons. I

[27:59] wrote a plan and a proposal, and I looked at it from two perspectives. One, as a

[28:05] potential mayor of the city and one as a concerned citizen who may have been a victim of a

[28:11] flood. So I created this plan as an outline and a framework that allows us to communicate

[28:17] properly together as a working team together. And that was the purpose of that submission. Now

[28:23] I have two questions. One question is, I've heard a lot of talk about ETS, so I have

[28:31] only whenever I hear ETSI think of excessive talking syndrome. So I like to hear from the

[28:37] council what ETS is. I understand it's an engineering service. I understand that the

[28:44] Pointe Claire goes through a tender process before selecting. I wanted to know if there's any

[28:50] affiliation personally with any of the people. I want to know the scope of what the service

[28:55] is being provided in a general sense that meets my time restriction. And that's the

[29:00] first question. The second question, you can answer it, or I can ask the second. The

[29:05] second question is, of the 11 different projects that were selected by the engineering

[29:12] firm that has been hired, in addition to the council members who helped make the decision,

[29:18] has the Del Mar watershed project been included in that? 11 project? That was determined.

[29:27] >> Mr. Gerard, do you want to respond about the e. T s contract that we have?

[29:31] >> Yeah. So this is l'École de technologie supérieure, essentially the city of

[29:38] Pointe-Claire. Approximately two years ago conducted an agreement with the technology

[29:45] to do a study of our stormwater management network and how we can improve that. I'm giving

[29:51] you the details at a very high level, but if you want to send me an email, I can send you

[29:57] information that was provided publicly with that project, and I'll provide you a little bit

[30:01] more details on the scope of the work that is done by the BTS that will benefit the city

[30:07] moving forward and identifying the zones that need intervention with respect to

[30:12] stormwater management. So that's that's the collaboration that we have with the

[30:17] technologie supérieure. >> Are there any restrictions with with respect to the reply

[30:21] that you give me in terms of, you know, confidentiality or this this type of thing.

[30:26] >> Anything that's been done publicly, I'm allowed to publicly provide you the

[30:31] information. >> Thank you. >> Yep.

[30:34] >> Then both my questions are answered. Thank you for your time.

[30:37] >> Thank you. >> Danielle Latour. >> Yeah. This. Oh thank you. No,

[30:53] as long as it's close by, I'm good balance. Oh. Danielle Latour here. Mr. mayor, members

[31:09] of council, can you hear me? >> Yes. >> Residents are being asked to

[31:17] accept that our municipality faces increasingly urgent infrastructure needs from aging

[31:26] water, sewer and drainage systems to recurring flooding that threatens streets, homes

[31:35] and local businesses. Yet residents should not have to choose between essential

[31:42] infrastructure renewal, higher property taxes and reduced municipal services. So I'm

[31:51] asking for a clear commitment. What is the city's plan to raise the additional capital

[32:02] required to address these urgent infrastructure needs without increasing property

[32:11] taxes and without cutting essential municipal services? So I'm asking that question

[32:21] tonight. I know we have restrictions on the number of minutes we have left, but I

[32:28] would like the city to publicly identify external funding targets. A dedicated funding

[32:41] strategy, private sector and institutional partnerships, cost saving opportunities,

[32:53] flood prevention priorities, a transparent, publicly accountable investment plan.

[33:04] Will the city publish a multi-year infrastructure plan showing project by project the

[33:17] problem being addressed? The estimated cost, the urgency and risk level, the external

[33:26] funding being pursued, the city's required contribution, the expected economic and

[33:34] community benefits and the target completion date. Most importantly, what will be done

[33:42] now? Residents cannot afford to wait until another major flood infrastructure failure or

[33:52] emergency forces the city to spend substantially more money reacting to problems that could

[34:00] have been prevented. Every dollar invested in prevention today can potentially avoid

[34:07] much larger costs tomorrow. We therefore need a proactive strategy. That combines

[34:16] government funding, partnerships, innovation, cost efficiencies and long term

[34:24] asset management. Will the city publish a multi-year infrastructure plan showing

[34:36] project by project? Most importantly. Finally, residents cannot afford to wait until

[34:44] another major flood infrastructure failure or emergency faces the city to

[34:52] spend substantially more money reacting to problems that could have been prevented. Every

[34:56] dollar invested in prevention today can potentially avoid much larger costs.

[35:02] >> I'm gonna have to ask you to stop now. >> My commitment. Okay. The

[35:06] objectives should be straightforward. Modernize our aging infrastructure.

[35:12] >> Mr. Latour. >> Flooding protect homes and businesses. Maintain quality

[35:19] municipal services. Mr. Latour. >> I'm going to ask you. >> Your property tax burden on

[35:25] residents. Thank you for the opportunity. >> So everything you mentioned,

[35:29] we're already doing, so as of November of this year with this new council got put into place,

[35:35] we made water flooding a priority. We've adopted all our budgets to invest in the

[35:41] infrastructure that needed to that needs work. It's not just the infrastructure. It's not

[35:46] just the city of Pointe-Claire, it's the city of Pointe-Claire, it's the residents. It's

[35:50] different levels of government. We went to provincial government. We just got $6.8

[35:54] million. We looked at our eyes, our capital expenditure. We that we that is a five year

[35:59] plan. We have reworked that. We've had 6 or 12 meetings since November to readjust

[36:05] everything in order to put the money, allocate the money towards flood management and

[36:12] infrastructure work. We're not going to fix this overnight. And you and I, there's no one

[36:16] in this room who can tell us when the next storm is going to come. But I can tell you that

[36:21] everybody in the city, the engineering department, Public Works Administration, council,

[36:26] we are all 100% dedicated to solving or trying to solve as many of these issues as we can,

[36:35] as fast as we can. The proof is in the pudding. We got elected in November, December 15th. We

[36:39] had a public meeting explaining to you the work that the city had already done. It takes

[36:44] hours and weeks and months to analyze and do studies and find out when. When we do have these

[36:50] different storms, we asked the citizens, please call us and tell us what happened. We need

[36:56] to collect data. We need to collect information so we can analyze and identify areas. And

[37:01] we every time it's rained the last the last year, the three storms that we've had, we've

[37:06] found different situations, different problems, and we're addressing them and we've got

[37:10] experts working on we're doing everything we can. I'm very confident when I say that we

[37:14] are working so hard on this. I'm proud of what we're doing. Is it perfect? Is it fast

[37:19] enough? Never. We don't know when the next storm is going to come. We have no idea. But I

[37:24] can just tell you that we are you know, we went out and invested $1 million in buying

[37:28] our own truck, so we'll be able to clean out the sewers. We'll be able to do intervention on a

[37:33] regular basis. We don't have to rely on a third party, a third party, like I said, December

[37:38] 15th meeting, March 15th, we had another meeting explaining to you about cohabitation and

[37:41] all these different things that you can do to, to help your help solidify your, your, your,

[37:45] your system around your house. We came up with a financial plan supposed to come out in

[37:50] September. We accelerated it. So it was available July 8th, right after the last storm. So

[37:54] people can start investing in their home. But again, it's a joint venture and we are all on

[37:58] board. And I think that the response I'm seeing from the citizens, the compliments we're

[38:03] getting, obviously, there's there's flood anxiety, there's some upset people, but I can

[38:08] just tell you that everybody we know, I lived it, he said. I'm a mayor. I lived being the

[38:14] mayor. I lived being flooded. I lived being not having enough insurance, and I have flood

[38:18] anxiety. I got it all. So I know what we're living. So that being said, all everything you

[38:23] said we're doing and we're doing it well. All right. And I'm very, very confident and

[38:27] very proud of what we're doing. So thank you. Next. No, no. Sorry. You have to thank you.

[38:34] >> Gary Carr. >> Mr. mayor, I have two items. The first being I'd like to

[38:51] thank yourself, your council, the Director general and your staff for taking care of that

[38:57] intersection of homeless and still view when it comes to pedestrian safety. Thank you.

[39:03] Well done. Thank you. Secondly, I'd like to have you guys perhaps take a look at Victor

[39:09] Devies. It's a two way street with no parking. More times than not you'll find big rigs.

[39:16] They're parked up to three four hours at a shot. When they do, cars come this way and somebody

[39:23] coming on. It's a possible, perhaps to get a center line painted there so they would

[39:29] know it's two way traffic, because sometimes those big rigs are traveling right dead

[39:34] center in a row, and your public security is responded to enormous amounts of accidents

[39:40] there. Thank you. >> Yeah. Thank you. We'll definitely take a look at it.

[39:45] Thank you very much. And thank you for your compliments. Thank you. That was anybody who's

[39:49] been coming here since, I guess November has heard about the great intersection still view.

[39:53] It's finally done. So there you go. >> Lorraine. Pauline.

[40:02] >> Good evening Pauline. 131 Allston District four. So this is a follow up from the

[40:08] questions asked at the council meeting held last month. During that meeting, I came before you

[40:12] and asked what the city was going to do about two specific topics the inability of the

[40:17] city's infrastructure to take away water from residents properties, and the ditch

[40:21] located on the townhouse property, both in August 2024 and June of this year. Our

[40:28] house flooded. After the first flood. We spent several tens of thousands of dollars in

[40:33] improvements and renovations to our homes infrastructure to prevent this from happening

[40:38] again. Less than two years later, in June, we were flooded again, as were many of the

[40:43] residents here. Tonight I have two sump pumps installed, and they were not able to send any

[40:48] water to the city's pipes because they were full, providing subsidies to

[40:53] homeowners to protect their own homes can only go so far when the city's infrastructure is

[40:57] ill suited to deal with the new reality of the rainfall. So I ask you as my first question,

[41:03] what will the city do to improve the infrastructure on Alston Avenue, a street that

[41:08] has been transformed by the amount of development that has gone on around it? Second,

[41:15] residents warned the city many years ago about their concerns with the development being

[41:21] built on wetlands and located so close to our property line. We warned again about the ditch

[41:28] that was receiving a constant flow of water, even in dry conditions from pumps under

[41:34] those townhouses. Those pumps empty into an open ditch. Finally, I warned the city

[41:42] about the unusually high level of water in these ditches. Just a few weeks before June's

[41:47] flooding. During the June event, this ditch was completely filled and had saturated my own

[41:53] yard, leaving me no doubt that it contributed to our flooding this time. Besides that, it has

[42:00] been filled with algae, bulrushes and become has become a breeding ground for

[42:05] mosquitoes because it is not functioning as per the plans approved by the city. Our own

[42:11] councilor, Mr. Swidsinski, has requested plans and studies related to the project through

[42:16] an access to information request many, many weeks ago. But as of now that has not been

[42:23] approved. So I'll ask again what is the city prepared to do to protect the residents of

[42:29] Allston who have this constant flood threat in our backyards? >> So to answer your first

[42:35] question about what the city is going to do about infrastructure in Austin, and

[42:38] you mentioned that your sump pumps are running in the the system could not take the water,

[42:44] so it wasn't going anywhere. One thing that we're looking at is changing the bylaw on how a

[42:50] sump pump is connected up to the city services, and that in the event that the city

[42:55] services are full, then you would have a bypass and would spit the water out onto a lawn

[43:00] or into a rain garden or whatever. So that's a building code thing that we have to look

[43:04] at. And we're looking at changing that so that that would solve that problem.

[43:08] >> Hopefully the city will pay for that, sir. >> We won't pay for it.

[43:11] Depending on, on the on the situation. It would be something we would pay for in

[43:15] our financial plan. If you have a sump pump, it needs to be adjusted to to help water from

[43:21] coming back into your house. Yes, we look at it for sure. >> But the the I believe that

[43:27] the recommendation or the, the bylaws from the city required that the, that the sump pumps

[43:34] had to be emptied into the city. Right. Infrastructure previously.

[43:37] >> Right. So now with the new reality and we're going with the certain code that we're

[43:42] following, but that that might have to change. So that has to change. And if you've never had

[43:48] a problem in your house before, well, then you won't have to do it. If you've had a problem,

[43:52] you might be one of the candidates to ask for compensation to make that

[43:56] change. >> And where, where would that water flow to?

[43:58] >> It would flow into somewhere on your property, into a rain garden, onto your lawn. What it

[44:03] does is it ends up, instead of forcing it into a system, it was already blocked, it puts it

[44:08] on to a property and it will disperse slowly. It will end up in the sewer system eventually,

[44:13] but it slows down the flow and overwhelming the sewer system. So you're not the only one.

[44:17] >> I'd be interested to see how that would work when I have the water in my backyard already.

[44:24] >> I'm just telling you what we're looking at in general. Okay? And I'm not only your,

[44:30] but in general. The other question about this. We have met with the association, the

[44:36] lady sitting right here, we met last week at the City Hall with engineering, with your yourself

[44:42] and a couple of other people. And we went over the plans. We went over some situations.

[44:48] They've agreed to look at their property and hire a specialist to look at what they have to do

[44:54] to mitigate the water on their property. And step by step, we're going to see what can be

[44:58] done to make it a better situation. >> Okay, so in response to that,

[45:03] I just want to point out that they are prima three. I'm talking about prima two, right?

[45:09] Which is a different ditch and a completely different. >> It's a one right along the

[45:12] back, right along Austin. Austin. I see. Austin. Yeah. But that ditch, if I remember

[45:18] right, it's we, we sent somebody there the other day in their big rain. The day that we

[45:24] it's not. >> It's not, it's not her. >> It's not her. But we sent

[45:29] somebody on that property that day and everything was, was. >> To, to the ditch behind my

[45:34] house. >> Yes. We were there and it seemed to be running fine from

[45:37] what I was told. But let's we met with them. We solved that problem. Let's. Andrew brings

[45:43] up your question all the time. We've done an intervention. We've looked at it. I'll get

[45:49] more information. We'll get back to you. But right now, that ditch was working fine the

[45:53] last time. It didn't overflow. From what I understand, it did not overflow, did it in June.

[45:57] >> It did not. It did not physically overflow, but it was near the top. That was the

[46:04] wettest part of my my. >> But it did his job. >> No, it did not, because the

[46:08] residents had two of their own gas pumps to empty out into the into the forest.

[46:14] >> Okay, so let. >> Me pump water out to save their own houses.

[46:17] >> So let me get you. We'll call you back. Mr. We'll get some more information and we'll

[46:22] get you. Because we were over there the other day looking at it in the rain. So we'll we'll

[46:26] get back to you. >> I'd love to visit it with you.

[46:29] >> Perfect. Last time I went to visit, I had been removed, by the way they removed me from

[46:34] the property. But if I can get permission to go there, I'd love to go there. Okay, perfect.

[46:39] Thank you. Thank you. >> Just clarify what you just said about pumping into the

[46:43] wetland. Who's pumping into the wetland? Nobody houses on Nelson or the.

[46:48] >> No. The residents of prima two during the June 20th event. Yes. In order to empty the

[46:55] ditch so that it would not cause catastrophic event in their townhouses, they pumped

[47:01] it into the forest with two gasoline generators. Okay. >> Thank you. We got your

[47:11] contact information. We'll get back to you. Thank you. >> Daniel Nishimaru.

[47:21] >> Good evening. I would like to start. Thank the the city, Mr. Belvedere, with your

[47:29] technical expert team as well, including Mr. Fillon, for the meeting we had on July 28th.

[47:34] I'm a resident from premature. So in that meeting, just to. I would like to follow up with

[47:40] some actions. But just to summarize what we understood that the city system is not

[47:46] capable to deal with all the amount of rain that is being happening in the last five

[47:51] years. Right. And there is nothing that could be done in the short term. So you are

[47:56] working hard on that. But in the short term, there is not what could be done in order to

[48:00] improve this amount of rain, that the system seat system can capture from our property.

[48:06] Right? So it, it shows to us that more than ever, we need to work together with the city

[48:12] with some solutions. We discuss about that, some solutions. We are working hard on every

[48:17] single solution we discuss that we can do right. We are working extremely hard on that and we

[48:23] will make sure. And one of those things is the ditch, right? That staff will talk

[48:27] more about that later on, but in that meeting as well. So we made some quick calculations

[48:32] with your technical team, what we would be required to do in our property in order to

[48:37] capture this 150mm of rain. And our conclusion is we need half of Olympic pool. And we talk

[48:44] about millions of liters of waters, which it was very clear that something impractical to

[48:49] be done in our property. Right? We can look into the ditch, we can enlarge the ditch, but by

[48:54] itself is not sufficient. And in that meeting there, so the city had one of the actions was

[49:00] to look into the wood that my colleague mentioned, the forest there to potentially do a

[49:06] containment pool. Understand, it's not easy, but we need to keep in mind it's extreme time.

[49:11] It requires extreme actions. And I know it's hard. We don't expect anything less from the

[49:16] city to work as hard as we are doing on our property. And another thing as well, the

[49:21] other action. When I talk to Mr. Filion about the system, the way it works, it's possible

[49:27] that water is coming from the system into our property because there is no like one

[49:32] way valve, so maybe there is water coming from the system and will come back to our

[49:37] property. So even if we could build half of Olympic pool, which we cannot, we would not

[49:42] be able to contain all the water from the system. Right? So something for the city to

[49:47] look at it. Is it possible to install one way valve or another type of solution in

[49:53] order to avoid water from the system city system come into our property, because there is

[49:59] no way we can do all of those, right? I understand the deficiency on the system, on

[50:03] the system. We are ready to work together with you guys, and I would like to have a

[50:08] feedback, a follow up on those actions. Thank you. >> Well, I thought we had a

[50:14] great meeting. Thank you very much. It was cordial, it was professional. And you guys came

[50:18] with a lot of knowledge and you were made aware. I think that we did our homework too, and we

[50:23] had the drawings and everything and showed you. I'm quite confident that. Our our stuff

[50:31] is working, but you have some work to do too. And it's a joint venture. Right. And that

[50:36] we agreed on and we did talk about your idea about the retention, using the park for

[50:40] the retention basin, and Mr. Filion said he would look into. It was a great idea. That was a

[50:45] week ago. Give us some time. Just like you guys have to go out and hire a consultant to

[50:51] look at what you can do to. So what you guys find out that you have to do on your property.

[50:56] And then we look at what we have already on our system. We can hopefully resolve the

[51:00] problem. Right? But in the meantime, it's work in progress. You have work to do. And we're

[51:04] going to look at we're going to look at using, like I said, that park as a as a retention

[51:10] tank. But you guys have to get your property evaluated to see what you can do to be more

[51:14] efficient, to absorb more water. Yes, the ditch will help the type of, you know, the gardens

[51:20] are sponge parks, whatever you can do on your property. I'm not telling you what to do, how

[51:25] to do it, but you will get an expert that will will determine what you can do. And then we'll

[51:30] take it from there. Because you saw in the plans that the original plan that was drawn up

[51:35] by the consultant before the project or when the project was designed, it had all that in

[51:39] there. I mean, nobody expected 150mm of rain, right? So we are adapting to a new reality. But

[51:45] again, together we're going to get there, right? It's not only your project. Everybody in this

[51:49] room has issues that we have to work together and find solutions every day. We have to

[51:55] come up with a new solution, new problem, solve it and we'll get there. But it's going to

[52:00] take time. So you do what you have to do. We're just going to do what we have to do and

[52:05] hopefully it's going to resolve it. >> So just to make sure if you

[52:08] understood, Mr. Mayor, so your team is is working in order to check what could be done on the

[52:13] park forest. >> You mentioned. >> That he.

[52:15] >> Really thought it was a good idea and he would look into it. >> Right.

[52:19] >> He said he thought it was a good idea and he would look into it. Right. So that's.

[52:24] >> Just to let you know. So we are working as well on our side as well. As soon as we have

[52:29] some proposal, we will need to have another meeting with the city in order to understand all

[52:34] those interfaces. But we will let you know about it. >> Perfect. That's what we're

[52:37] waiting for. >> Okay. And another action, maybe if you can follow up is

[52:41] to see the system city system. If there is a way to block the water coming from the city

[52:46] system coming to our property, we would appreciate. >> As well. I'll ask that

[52:49] question, but I don't remember that conversation. But I'll ask the question.

[52:52] >> Okay. Perfect. Thank you very much. Okay. Have a good evening.

[52:55] >> George Fragedakis. >> Good evening, Mr. Mayor. >> Good evening.

[53:04] >> Council members. My issue is road safety. I've been a resident on Cano Avenue since

[53:12] October 1st, and it became evident to me that trucks and commercial vehicles are using

[53:19] De Cano between Del Mar and Avro to bypass traffic lights on Hymas and sources. I reached

[53:28] out to City Councilor Mr. In early January. I've reached out to police. The police has come

[53:36] out a few times, has given many tickets, has confirmed my concerns. I see 18 wheelers up

[53:47] to five a day. We talked about a daycare being right at the corner of Del Mar and de Canal

[53:54] de Cano has three corridor scolaire signs, two crosswalks and a stop sign. So I find it

[54:02] very hard to believe how an 18 Wheeler can negotiate a crosswalk, two of them, or that

[54:08] intersection at Del Mar and Cano. I don't know how they pull that off. So I want action.

[54:15] I know, I know the expectation of police to be there on a daily basis is unreasonable. I

[54:22] see parading trucks going east, sorry, West returning back to their hub. Right. They know Del

[54:30] Mar service road and back to the plant. Something has to be done because kids are on their

[54:36] bikes, kids are on their scooters, kids are walking to school in a month's time. So my

[54:41] concern is the safety of pedestrians, children. And I won't talk about speeding

[54:48] because speeding is is a known issue as well. But the main one is I cringe every time I see an

[54:53] 18 Wheeler from my window. >> So I can just tell you that Mr. Potvin is well aware, has

[54:58] brought it to our attention many times. We brought it, we've discussed it, we've

[55:02] brought it to traffic committee. We're looking at solutions. We're aware of the problem. The

[55:06] police, like you said, have shown up and ticketed people. Part of it may be is ways we

[55:12] tell the trucks to go that way. To me, it's the shortest route, whatever. But we're looking at

[55:16] it. I don't have the answers solutions right now as we speak, but we have had this

[55:20] conversation and we will have to get back to you because I don't remember all the details.

[55:25] We're still discussing it at the traffic committee, and our next meeting is only in

[55:28] September now. But we did come to the table. >> My understanding is that

[55:32] there'll be signs. >> There's signage. Additional signage.

[55:35] >> There is no signage at strategic area. >> There will be additional

[55:38] signage. There's a bunch of stuff that we talked about. I just don't remember all.

[55:42] >> But I was also told that it's it's a deterrent, right? It's not. But I think 18

[55:48] Wheeler is going on. De Cano has to stop. >> Well, absolutely. We agree

[55:52] with that. It's how. >> Do we do not take. >> No no no no. We agree that

[55:56] they shouldn't be there. We absolutely agree. How do we deter them from turning.

[56:00] >> That an 18 Wheeler can't see a child. >> Right.

[56:03] >> Right from that height. >> Just to clarify, there's signage that says no trucks

[56:07] allowed, but they need to be made more evident. >> Prior to 1818, Wheeler

[56:14] trucks are not from Pointe-Claire. They're coming from. And they don't they don't

[56:18] care on the highway. Why would they care? And they cannot. >> So we're well aware we

[56:23] discussed it. We're going to make the signage more evident, like Mr. Matthews said. And

[56:27] we'll once. >> The sign young children. Right. Well, others do. I'm a

[56:31] concerned citizen. >> And I you know what I hear you I you know, and it's it's

[56:36] hard to fix. I mean, they they out of their own intelligence, they should not be turning that

[56:41] right. But it's amazing of saving two minutes, you know. But thank you. And it's not has

[56:46] not fallen on deaf ears. >> All right. >> Thank you. Thank you.

[56:52] >> The ninth person asked to be removed. So we'll move on to the next person, Monsieur

[56:57] Martin Gendron. >> Mr. mayor, I can just make a comment. Somebody who's

[57:01] watching at home commented that the people were speaking are not close enough to the mic, so

[57:07] that they're not really able to hear what people are saying, so fewer people will come up. You

[57:12] can just try and pull the mic closer to your mouth so that people can hear you. Thank you.

[57:17] >> Thank you. >> Mr. Voter administration pour tous les efforts qu'on

[57:48] peut voir ce qu'on peut pour voir qui vous entrepreneurs pour le problem of the climate

[57:55] change and the floodings. >> We're going to just adjust the might get it closer to you,

[58:00] please. Voila. Merci beaucoup. >> Okay, I just hope I was well understood.

[58:05] >> Yes you were. >> Thank you. There. Martin Gendron. For the residents

[58:11] whose properties are affected by Sunnyside's aqueduct system, the drainage ditches. Have

[58:21] really. >> You can't get close enough. >> Is this good? Like this?

[58:32] Proportion call. Okay, so Martin Gendron, for the residents whose properties are

[58:41] affected by Sunnyside's aqueduct system, the drainage ditches the residents and many

[58:47] others live in fear. Mr. mayor, in the apprehension of the next storm to come, bringing

[58:55] torrential rain and floodings, the hydro will. The hydro, the electricity hold on through to

[59:03] power our pump and our sump pumps in the backyards? Drainage ditches do not require

[59:11] electricity. Water has inertia. It follows gravity. Water will follow the slope of the

[59:21] drainage ditches. As long as there is a slope. In the absence of a slope where the

[59:30] land is landfilled. 107 Sunnyside 110 and 112 Sunnyside. Upstream, water spills out and

[59:41] fans onto the backyards, and then it proceeds to the next houses. And then the third. And

[59:48] on and on. It's unfortunate and unfair. I see neighbors spending thousands, tens of

[59:56] thousands, Mr. Mayor. To cope on their own when the prospect of a solution will be so

[1:00:07] insular, almost futile. We all pay the same taxes. Hope. There wasn't hope there was in the

[1:00:19] world of July, hoping for a crew of land surveyors, hoping for the repair of the down

[1:00:26] slope, hoping for the storm before the storm of August. And that's the storm that's going

[1:00:33] to come. It's it's invaluable. In August. We have a terrible storm, so we live in fear and

[1:00:40] apprehension. We hope that the hydro will hold on so we can keep our pumps on. We, the

[1:00:48] residents affected by the Sunnyside drainage ditches cannot be coping with piecemeal

[1:00:56] interventions on our own. We are asking this administration for the repair of the drainage

[1:01:04] ditches as a way to encompass all of the backyards. Thank you, Mr. Mayor.

[1:01:13] >> Thank you very much for your comments. Your questions. We're aware of the situation on

[1:01:19] Sunnyside, Cool Breeze, all in that area. We've held meetings discussing it. It's not clear

[1:01:27] cut. You're well informed and some are privately owned. Some are city owned. Some have been

[1:01:35] filled in by residents who have decided to extend their backyard and filled in the

[1:01:39] ditch and put a garden shed on. So these are all things we're looking at. We know it's like

[1:01:44] everything else we're looking at. All this unfortunately, takes time, lots of work, and.

[1:01:49] But again, we're we've got a committee looking at it and we're trying to find solutions

[1:01:54] and how we're going to approach. Even if they are owned by the city and they're in your

[1:02:02] backyard, you actually have a responsibility to find out, to maintain them to, to make sure

[1:02:06] they work. So these are all things we're looking at, and to come up with a plan that we can

[1:02:12] that's going to work for everybody. And there might be some very happy people. There

[1:02:16] might be some very upset people who have to move a garden shed or dig up a fence or whatever.

[1:02:21] But these are all things that we just can't do overnight. We have to. And that's what we're

[1:02:25] we're trying to get there now, trying to recognize the issues and come up with solutions for

[1:02:30] them all. >> We are we are a community together, Mr. Mayor.

[1:02:35] >> Absolutely. >> It's not because somebody is insular that they're above. No,

[1:02:40] the, the, the well-being and the safety of the community as a whole. Sir.

[1:02:45] >> No. And I agree with you, and we know the importance of solving your problems in your

[1:02:51] area. We've been we've been we've already had two meetings just about that. Okay. So we're

[1:02:56] trying to find solutions. And it's, there's a lot of research to do to find out who owns them

[1:03:01] and what, who, what's on the city property, what's on the private property. And these are

[1:03:06] all things we're identifying. And people will be getting letters in their mail notifying

[1:03:10] them of the situations. >> Thank you, Mr. Mayor. Thank you.

[1:03:14] >> Very much. Thank you. >> Nasser al Dhabi. >> Good evening.

[1:03:25] >> Good evening. Just lowered fray. There you go. >> We get the flood. For the

[1:03:31] last three years, the 24, 25 and 26 and cost us a lot of money. And every year the

[1:03:40] increasing our taxes and our value of the houses and what's happening is the opposite. So

[1:03:47] our soon you're going to have the budget for 26 or the 27. Are you going the increase our

[1:03:56] taxes for all water costs. That happened to us for all the flooding.

[1:04:00] >> So I'm going to answer. You know, I know you complain about the taxes all the time. Every

[1:04:05] time you come to the phone, to the microphone, don't forget something. Montreal raised our

[1:04:10] portion of Montreal by $18 million last year, $18 million. We're paying Montreal $106

[1:04:18] million a year. We're paying them 54% of our budget, or 56% of our budget goes to Montreal.

[1:04:26] So we're managing the city on 44%. Okay. And all the services we have not cut services. We're

[1:04:33] we're adapting to climate change. We're spending over $40 million in our capital

[1:04:37] expenditures this year to a fixed infrastructure and help with the the water situation

[1:04:42] and get the road surface better. And, and we're managing it efficiently the best we can.

[1:04:48] And we're getting there. But I mean, do we increase taxes? We are always worried. We're

[1:04:53] waiting for Montreal to come out with their new increase. And November is not far away.

[1:04:58] We're all going to find you're going to find out when we find out. And we rely on Montreal

[1:05:03] because we have to pay Montreal. We have no negotiations with Montreal. This is what they

[1:05:07] charge us. We have to pay, and we have to come up with that money one way or another. So

[1:05:12] either we we increase his tax a little bit to compensate for it. And we maintain our services,

[1:05:16] or we start cutting services. And we have no intention of cutting services. And I think

[1:05:20] for the the amount of money that we, the increase we've had over the last few years from

[1:05:25] Montreal, we have done a heck of a job being able to keep taxes reasonably low and

[1:05:30] maintaining services. >> Yeah, but. >> That's what we're up against.

[1:05:34] >> Yeah. But the flood and all what's happened to us is not our fault, is that it's because

[1:05:39] the infrastructure is too old. >> Nobody's nobody's fault. Mother nature is mother's

[1:05:42] nature. I'm not going to. You can't blame the City for 118mm, or 115mm of rain in 30 minutes.

[1:05:49] You can't blame the city. You can't. We have to work on this together. So we have we have to

[1:05:54] come to reality. This is this is a reality. Climate change is here. It's going to happen

[1:06:00] again. We cannot dig up every street, change every pipe. Even the largest pipes would not

[1:06:06] accommodate all the water that fell because the sewers, the top, it can't get in the system

[1:06:10] fast enough. So we are trying to come up with other solutions. We just announced we got $6.8

[1:06:16] million, which is just a drop in the bucket, but it's going to get us 11 projects that will

[1:06:22] be able to help mitigate the water situation. And it's not by putting the water in the

[1:06:27] sewer is going to solve the problems by putting the water in the green spaces, in the

[1:06:31] parks, in the retention tanks. That's what's going to help us. And that's what we're doing.

[1:06:35] And I mean, we're working full time at this, and we're getting the support of the Quebec

[1:06:40] government. We're getting the support of a of our of our employees to put all their

[1:06:44] energy into this. So that's where we're at. >> Yeah, I understand about all

[1:06:48] what you're saying, but we have to fight for the city of Montreal. What they charging us

[1:06:53] all this. >> That's another battle. That's another battle. That's a

[1:06:57] completely different battle. And that's. We're doing that fight. And we're. But that's,

[1:07:02] you know, that's a long battle. And that's going to be with the provincial government because

[1:07:06] they're the only ones that can change it. We're fighting to get it changed. And the new

[1:07:10] mayor of Montreal says that she wants to look at it and understand it. And because

[1:07:14] she's going to come up with her own budget at this November. So let's see where her let's see

[1:07:19] what she does this November. Okay? Okay. Because she's been working with us. We've met with

[1:07:23] her many times. She's been talking the talk. Let's see what.

[1:07:26] >> Can work with you. Like you can ask us, we can help you to get all together.

[1:07:31] >> I'd love it, but I mean, it's it's. >> It's you're the leader.

[1:07:33] We're supposed to follow you. >> You were 15 minutes parties that that are de-merged. We're

[1:07:40] all on the same page. We all represent all the citizens of the Mercedes, the Mercedes, all

[1:07:45] the mayors. And you don't know what goes on in the back room. But we're we're we're fighting

[1:07:50] with the provincial government. We're fighting with Montreal. We're trying to explain to them

[1:07:54] that we're overpaying. But Montreal, to me is broke. They need our money. And so they

[1:07:59] can't just say, you know what, we're going to make it right and correct the problem because

[1:08:03] they don't have the money. So it's a very tough game. But Beaconfield is in Montreal

[1:08:07] right now. We're all on the same page. Beaconsfield decided to go on their own. So right

[1:08:12] now Montreal cannot talk to us until this court case is settled. Montreal but behind

[1:08:16] the scenes, we're doing all kinds of stuff and hopefully, look, I can't guarantee

[1:08:20] anything. It's been going on for 20 years, but it's not because we haven't fought the

[1:08:24] fight. It's just because there's many other scenarios behind the scenes that that

[1:08:28] keeps on getting in the way. >> Okay, my second question I asked about, you know, in the

[1:08:34] summer, we're breeding all the the fire from all over Quebec and Canada and the state. So

[1:08:41] breeding all the pollution. And in winter, some people burning wood and palate and we're

[1:08:47] breeding all that. So when I ask you, you said you're working on to stop all that

[1:08:54] because that is practicing in 19th century when there was no electricity. But now there are

[1:09:00] too many solutions. So when are you going to stop burning pellet and and wood in

[1:09:07] Pointe-Claire? There are too many city already. Stop it. Since a long time, even some

[1:09:11] city. They are paying the resident to buy back the gas and more to pay them to buy

[1:09:20] electric. So this they care about the the environment. So when are we going to stop that?

[1:09:25] >> So you're you've been here at every meeting. You've heard that Eric Storch and Councilor

[1:09:30] Tremblay has formed a committee with the legal department, with urban planning to look at the

[1:09:35] wood stove situation. Pointe-Claire had one of the most up to date wood stove

[1:09:40] bylaw going back many years ago. The other municipalities who are adopting bylaws for wood

[1:09:45] stoves now are adopting what we already have. Okay, but we're trying to take it another step,

[1:09:51] father. I don't know what Eric and Bruno and these guys have come up with. I have not seen

[1:09:55] the what they what they're going to propose, but it's coming to our table soon, I

[1:09:59] believe, Mr. Storch. Now. >> I think our next meeting, if I'm not mistaken, the councilor

[1:10:03] Bruno, is next week. Right? Exactly. So it is being looked at. It's been reviewed multiple

[1:10:08] times. Obviously, I can't disclose what we're. Discussions are headed, but I

[1:10:13] can tell you it's very avant garde. There's some decisions to be made. But, you know, we

[1:10:17] have to catch up and get ahead. It's a question of how far we go ahead. But it's a concern.

[1:10:22] We're all aware of it and it's going to be addressed. But like anything else, it takes time.

[1:10:27] We have a legal department that has a certain amount of hours. Do we put flood mitigation

[1:10:32] bylaws ahead of wood burning? You know, there's there's it's allocation of resources as well.

[1:10:38] So I wished, I think that it would have been completed a bit sooner. But once again, would

[1:10:43] you rather, you know, flood mitigation or, you know, so it's we're doing our best. But

[1:10:48] I firmly believe that September we should have something. If I'm not mistaken. Councilor

[1:10:52] Bruno and September, October, November by November we you know, we should have something.

[1:10:58] Any words to say, Councilor Bruno? >> Yeah. It's. Yes. Sorry. You

[1:11:04] caught me by surprise referring to me as Councilor Bruno. But it's okay. It's okay. No, no.

[1:11:12] So to catch up on what you were thinking. Yes we were. We're working diligently on this.

[1:11:16] We've gone back and forth on a number of occasions reviewing the bylaws that exist in other

[1:11:23] cities, looking at our bylaw, looking at the science behind it. And I'm optimistic that

[1:11:29] we're going to be able to be in a position to improve our position on on wood stoves. And

[1:11:34] I agree fully this is an issue that we need to start to have control over. The quality of

[1:11:38] our air is, is, is extremely important. It's it's an obvious thing to say, but it's clearly

[1:11:46] essential to us, especially in the winter, in the winter months. Sorry, I was letting

[1:11:52] you continue, Eric. So I was a little bit behind the the punch there. Okay, good.

[1:11:58] >> So the, the, the summary is we're working on it. We'll be bringing something to the

[1:12:03] public soon. >> Thank you. But because it's a small minority, really what

[1:12:06] they're burning the wood and palate. So if we're not stopping that, we just, you

[1:12:12] know, promoting for the for the small minority to keep continue. So thank you for your effort.

[1:12:19] And I hope we see it next, next month. >> Thank you. Thank you.

[1:12:25] >> Stefan Lorant. Bonjour. >> Good evening. >> Stephanie. Lorraine, part of

[1:12:37] the primary construction on Avenue Mason. I want to echo Daniel's appreciation, Mr.

[1:12:44] Mayor, and to the council, thank you again for taking the time to meet with us a couple

[1:12:49] of weeks ago. Out of your busy schedules, we know there's a lot going on behind the scenes.

[1:12:53] And to take the time, even outside of this type of environment, is very

[1:12:57] appreciated. Following that meeting and your suggestions, we have actually moved forward

[1:13:02] with one first professional evaluation from Du Bois and was kindly answered last week from

[1:13:10] Eco Habitation, who's speaking very positively about the work you guys are doing together.

[1:13:14] They've also committed to visiting our property and have just recommended that they

[1:13:18] finish the work with your team, so that the evaluation they can give us is fully representative

[1:13:23] of all the factors connected to your city. Obviously, details weren't shared, but it sounds

[1:13:29] like there's a lot behind the scenes, and we've also started to move forward with quotes and

[1:13:34] evaluations from different professional excavators that can offer to help us with the

[1:13:39] primary water retention system, which is that ditch everyone keeps speaking about, which

[1:13:45] should promise to help us retain, based on our most heavy rains, about 50% to 60% of

[1:13:51] water that falls in an extreme case scenario, which is a great start. My question you might be

[1:13:56] able to answer pretty quickly based on your opening remarks, and that there's a meeting on

[1:14:02] August 25th about the adaptation to the stormwater subsidy program. I wanted to

[1:14:07] follow up and see if there was further discussion with the council and your legal team

[1:14:11] about us being able to apply some of that subsidy to the co co-owned property outside of

[1:14:18] the homes to support those improvements, if they're deemed, of course, material to helping

[1:14:25] reduce flooding impact. >> We've had the discussion right after your meeting. We've

[1:14:28] had the discussion and we're analyzing it. And on August 25th, we'll have an answer by

[1:14:37] then. And if it's favorable or unfavorable, will be in those changes that are coming up. But

[1:14:42] it's a little bit complicated because it's co-ownership. But there are certain things that

[1:14:45] you do own. Part of your property is yours and there's stuff that's going. So that's

[1:14:49] what we're looking at. We're just trying to get a legal get around the legal part of it.

[1:14:53] But yeah, we'll get to that by August 25th. >> Wonderful. So that was my

[1:14:57] question tonight is to, to have it considered to be addressed in that in that reevaluation.

[1:15:02] So thank you. >> Thank you. >> Stefan Gauguin.

[1:15:16] >> I good evening. >> Good evening. Mr. Mayor and Councilor. I have two questions

[1:15:24] tonight. One is about the the water storm management, financial assistance. It's. I

[1:15:36] see we see that you you make some modification for adding the townhouse. I'm in prima one.

[1:15:45] So I see prima one, 2 or 3. >> Everybody the whole family. >> So all project is here. So.

[1:15:56] I just want to know because it's only for the properties, individual properties who can

[1:16:04] ask for the the the assistance. In our case we have a retention basin and and is higher than

[1:16:17] all our garage. All the the entrance for the basement. And it's so it's overflowing inside

[1:16:29] the garage. Is there a way for individual people to, to do something about that because.

[1:16:36] >> Well, so that's what we're looking at. And that's what we're going to have to clarify.

[1:16:40] Hopefully by August 25th, the definition of what. Because unique condos are unique

[1:16:46] because you have cool stuff. Stuff is cool shared, right? Yeah. It's not only owned by

[1:16:51] the. >> No, no, it's the. >> So that's what we're trying

[1:16:54] to clarify and see what. So hopefully by August 25th, we'll have a much clearer definition

[1:17:00] of what eligible for and what you're not. >> Okay.

[1:17:02] >> All right. >> And my second question is about the a bit similar is the

[1:17:10] basin of retention has a limited debit to go out. It takes three days to evacuate.

[1:17:21] And as we are higher than the the garage we are wondering is, is, is that the decrease of

[1:17:31] size of piping at the for evacuation. Is it normal for three days or is.

[1:17:39] >> Why are you asking me? I don't know, I don't even know the tank that's on your

[1:17:44] property. You know, we have to get somebody to look at it. It's part of your co-ownership,

[1:17:49] right? Yeah. So I mean, you should get the co-ownership to look at it. And just like prima

[1:17:53] three hired a specialist to look at their property. Maybe prima one needs to get on that

[1:17:58] bandwagon, have an evaluation of their situation to. I can't answer that question.

[1:18:02] >> No, no, no, I, I just want to to bring the facts. And we don't know if it's if it's

[1:18:11] normal, the size. >> And I don't know, honestly, you have to talk to your co

[1:18:16] ownership there. >> And who should we ask for for information about that.

[1:18:21] >> Talk to prima three over there and she'll give you the name of a specialist because

[1:18:27] they've hired people. So they'll give you a name of somebody. I mean, I can't give

[1:18:31] you a name of anybody could. Okay. >> All right. Thank you very

[1:18:34] much. Thank you. Have a nice evening. >> Bye bye.

[1:18:37] >> Catherine Schwartz. >> Hello. >> Good evening.

[1:18:43] >> Hi. I live at 93 Vincent in district three. It's right behind. So sources run through

[1:18:49] our backyard. You know, you know all about it. And I'm here on behalf of several residents

[1:18:53] because we're impacted by the significant vibrations behind our houses. Do you want me to

[1:18:59] read my whole thing, or do. >> You seem to know. >> All about it.

[1:19:03] >> Situation and I don't want to cut you off. If you want to read.

[1:19:07] >> It, go ahead. It's fine aware of it. >> You know it's worse since.

[1:19:11] >> May 25th. Yeah. >> We did an intervention and it worked for a bit, but now it

[1:19:15] didn't work. Now it's not working. No. The director of Public Works, Mr. Girouard, was

[1:19:19] on vacation, so he's not aware. But I did talk to Director of Public Works, and we have to

[1:19:23] look at a bigger project, do a bigger patch. Yeah, it's a lot more money. Yeah. And we're.

[1:19:29] Mr. Gerard just got back from vacation yesterday. He's going to be informed that we have to

[1:19:33] spend a little bit more money next year and we have to find it. But we we're looking at

[1:19:38] what we it's a bigger thing to do it. And, you know, it doesn't take much a little bump

[1:19:43] in the road and the trucks going over it. >> Oh, I know. It's the manhole

[1:19:47] cover specifically. It's like a ramp. And then they land and then it starts at 4 a.m. and it

[1:19:52] doesn't stop. >> We'll, they're going to go back and look to see if they

[1:19:56] can do anything short term again. But we're looking at a bigger project for next spring.

[1:20:00] >> Do you have any hope. >> To give me about? >> But it's funny because

[1:20:04] somebody wrote me and said to me, well, Hampstead had the same problem. They just solved

[1:20:08] it. But it took. And I wrote back, not being sarcastic but two times that ten years to to

[1:20:13] finally get that project done, we're not going to be ten years. >> Okay.

[1:20:16] >> We're looking at it now. And if we can do something short term to get you through to the

[1:20:21] spring, we'll do it. >> Okay, great. >> But it's a bigger to do,

[1:20:25] right? It's a bigger project. >> Yes. And how will you communicate or should I just.

[1:20:29] >> Well, Kelly will get back to you. Yeah. I mean, we we're all on top of it. We all have your

[1:20:34] emails and yeah, we'll Kelly will be able to reach out to you.

[1:20:38] >> So when we have the details, there's a few of you on the thread I can respond to, to, to

[1:20:43] that message. If not, if if not everyone's included, just reach out to me and I'll make sure

[1:20:47] that everyone gets the same message. >> Okay?

[1:20:49] >> Okay. >> Thank you so much. >> Excuse me, Mr. Mayor. If if

[1:20:53] you don't mind, could you just maybe give us. >> A summary of what happens?

[1:20:57] >> Right. So about two years ago, there was repaving done on sources just south of Belmont.

[1:21:01] When you're heading towards the 20 on the right bound lane, and it's three patches of pavement,

[1:21:05] but they aren't even with the rest of the surface. And because of the heavy road

[1:21:09] traffic and the trucks that come from the industrial sector, they bounce on that. They land

[1:21:14] on a manhole, they take off and they bounce back down onto the ground, behind our houses, and

[1:21:19] the dishes rattle and the house shakes, and you feel it like a like an earthquake. And it

[1:21:24] starts at four in the morning and it doesn't stop till the truck stop. But sometimes they

[1:21:28] keep going at night. And so it's very stressful, like just as a human. And then and it's

[1:21:35] been about two years and we've and there was repaving done when PA opened on Donegani, the

[1:21:40] whole like kind of section, they tried to redo it, but they just added more patches. So

[1:21:45] it's just more fun bumps for the big trucks to slam onto. >> All right.

[1:21:51] >> Thank you. Yeah. >> Thank you so much. >> Thank you Lorraine.

[1:21:56] >> So. >> Hello. >> I have a question. Just one.

[1:22:08] I know I went through all the criteria about trying to apply for any help for the money that

[1:22:14] you have for the flooding victims. Problem is I've done most of the work. Is there any

[1:22:21] chance that there's going to be monies down the road for to repay? Well, to help us pay

[1:22:26] because I mean, we have to put we put loans out, we've got line of credit being used, but

[1:22:31] we had to be proactive. We had to take care of our house. We couldn't wait to see if there

[1:22:36] was going to be money. Any chance. >> Well, right now, if I'm

[1:22:39] going to be honest with you, the answer is no. I don't like to give you that answer. But

[1:22:44] that's what I was discussing. We had to we had to have a start date. And, you know, I

[1:22:48] mean, we had the first storm back in 2024, August 9th, 2020. We're going to go back to then.

[1:22:53] It's not really we can't do it. It's very complicated legally and everything. So the answer

[1:22:57] is no. >> So the only people who are going to get money is the

[1:23:03] people who didn't do any work on their house. Is that. >> Well, the people that didn't

[1:23:07] do any work, people looking forward to have their house evaluated and see what they can

[1:23:12] do in case down the road. Yeah. Well, that's. >> That's what we already did.

[1:23:16] >> But I don't know. I mean, I'm being very blunt in saying no, no, it's has come up around

[1:23:21] this table many times. I don't want to get any more specific, but right now no, with

[1:23:25] something change, I. >> So if I want to say do some more work on my house, put

[1:23:32] something in the yard or whatever that would be eligible, but my sump pump, my electrical

[1:23:38] panel to take care of the sump pump and all these other things that I'm out of pocket.

[1:23:43] >> What year did you do that in? Just out of curiosity. >> This year.

[1:23:46] >> This year when? >> This year. April. >> Okay.

[1:23:49] >> Because we did. We were expecting another flood this summer. And gee golly, it

[1:23:54] happened. >> There you go. And we did it work. Did all your

[1:23:57] interventions work? >> It almost. >> Oh.

[1:24:00] >> We still have a bit. And I spoke to the plumber and he did say that. I asked, do I need

[1:24:05] two pumps? And he says, no. So we're, we're working on that. So if I have to pay for an

[1:24:12] adjustment, like they said, lower the level that the pump clicks on. Yeah. And might be

[1:24:17] able to click on before it starts coming in. We're going to try that. So I could charge

[1:24:22] you for that. Is that it? >> Yeah, exactly. Exactly. >> Okay.

[1:24:26] >> Thank you. Sorry. But yeah. >> Don't worry. I'm going to keep bugging Kelly.

[1:24:30] >> Okay. Keep bugging you. Thank you. >> Ken Lyons.

[1:24:41] >> I think he left. I saw Mr. Lyons leave. >> Genevieve Lucier.

[1:24:53] >> Good night everybody. I have two quick questions. De. Possible de faire comme une

[1:25:04] demolition ou de la construction qu'elle soit affiché devant les maisons

[1:25:10] parce qu'ils ont c'est pour pour une fois, la seule la de les gens qui ont un permis

[1:25:19] possible de faire des permis de voir la maison des permis de qui sont émis juste pour

[1:25:27] faciliter les la reconnaissance des raisons de savoir. Si les ont permis de. La deuxieme

[1:25:35] question. C'est pas pour ou sante et de ses claims. So bike paths just wondering if the

[1:25:46] reflection of the 40 over Saint John's, over the 40 is going to be redone any time soon,

[1:25:52] because I had the pleasure of going over there today and it was not enjoyable. I know, Mr.

[1:25:57] Tremblay said. It's easy to get over to the 40 over the 40, but it was not very pleasant today

[1:26:03] when we tried to go over there on our bike. So I was just wondering if there's a timeline

[1:26:08] for the reflection and bike path over the 40. >> Well, the existing overpass,

[1:26:13] the Saint John's overpass right now will be redone in April, starting in April, May next

[1:26:18] year. Okay. And there'll be, it's a big word, an integrated protected bike path on one side

[1:26:24] with a cement wall, but it's not. And if you're talking about the passerelle, the

[1:26:28] independent passerelle that's off the table right now. >> I heard about that being off

[1:26:32] the table. And I was actually just talking about Saint Jean to.

[1:26:35] >> Saint John's will be redone starting in the spring of next year. We're just signing the

[1:26:39] agreements with the Minister of Transport. Okay. They're responsible for portion. We're

[1:26:42] responsible for a portion. But yeah, it needs to be redone. We redid the asphalt on the other

[1:26:47] side on the north side of it, and then the overpass will get done, and we're gonna do some

[1:26:52] work on the south side of it. >> Okay, that's good news about April. I think it'll really

[1:26:56] help to increase the connectivity between. >> I say, April, May bike paths

[1:26:59] in the spring. Let's call it the spring. >> Okay.

[1:27:02] >> Okay. >> Well, hopefully it'll all kind of join into future bike

[1:27:05] paths and include the tumbler and the bike paths towards the Grand Park and all that. That

[1:27:09] would be really wonderful about the tree felling. I don't know if that could be.

[1:27:13] >> I mean, permits are supposed to be present in a window. When you give you a permit, it's

[1:27:18] supposed to be visible. Yes. So I mean. >> But I don't.

[1:27:21] >> Know if we maybe we should put a note, which I'm sure it says on it, make it visible.

[1:27:26] But maybe when people pick up their permits, we send them out. We make a note saying that this

[1:27:31] please make sure it's visible. But that's the rules. They're supposed to be okay.

[1:27:34] >> So there are permits given out like a construction permit for.

[1:27:37] >> Tree felling, right? >> Okay. I've never applied for one.

[1:27:40] >> For the tree permit. >> Permit construction avec la la Baton Rouge, la. Je suis

[1:27:49] vraiment. >> Okay. >> In 2018, 2019, when we

[1:27:55] changed the law about the permits, you were the whole idea was to facilitate it so

[1:27:59] that they didn't tie up city services. But yeah, you were supposed to print your permit

[1:28:04] back then. Maybe they've changed it now. So I don't know. We'll look into it. It's a.

[1:28:09] >> Good point. Yeah. You know, was concerned I it would be great if it makes it so

[1:28:13] residents would know and not waste anybody's time for come and check or whatever. Yeah.

[1:28:17] Okay. Thank you very much. >> Thank you, Mr. Mayor. Just one comment, just for the

[1:28:21] record, Miss Lucy. Crossing Saint John's overpass is indeed quite difficult. And for the

[1:28:27] record, I've never said it was an easy task. And having had to do it on a number of occasions,

[1:28:33] you just need to be extremely careful. Yeah. >> And we shouldn't have to be

[1:28:37] so careful, is what I'm saying. It should be an easy process and encourage people to use

[1:28:41] their bikes and. Should indeed. It's it's a scary process. I was there with my daughter

[1:28:45] today and it was like, okay, go, go, you know, run, go. So it was tricky.

[1:28:50] >> Yeah. Okay. Not easy. >> Not easy. Yeah. >> Thank you.

[1:28:55] >> Kim Liberge. >> Good evening, Mister mayor and Council. Three quick

[1:29:06] questions about the flood. Thank you. When will the investigation for Hymas and

[1:29:15] Winthrop area be available? >> The board retention tank? Yeah, I don't know. I don't

[1:29:21] know where we're at. I mean, I'm sorry. Mr. Gerard just got back, and I don't even know if

[1:29:26] he's aware. Are you aware? >> I don't have the deadline date. No. I can get back to her,

[1:29:31] though. >> We can get back to you, though.

[1:29:33] >> Excellent. >> Thank you. Is there a schedule for maintenance for

[1:29:36] all of the storm water and sewers? >> There is, but there's going

[1:29:39] to be a much more rigorous one now. And we're coming up with that plan as we speak. Once we

[1:29:46] identify the areas that are really bad, there'll be a priority list, and then

[1:29:50] there'll be a regular maintenance schedule coming up. >> So there isn't one now. Just

[1:29:55] now. >> But there is one now. But it's not, let's say frequent

[1:29:59] enough. It takes too long to do it all. So we're we're finding a way to get it done more often,

[1:30:05] sooner. >> I understand that in the future you'd like that to

[1:30:08] change, but currently, what is it now? >> Now it's what's the one?

[1:30:12] >> The cycle is between 3 to 4 years. 3 to 4 years. >> 3 to 4 years.

[1:30:16] >> Yeah. >> Just a comment on that. >> Yeah.

[1:30:19] >> So I have approached the city to find out what the maintenance was on Hymas.

[1:30:25] >> Yeah. >> And I've been told that there has been nothing since

[1:30:29] 2019. That's a little long. >> Absolutely. That's why we asked for an investigation to

[1:30:35] check into what's going on there. So you're right. I mean, I can't comment, I don't know.

[1:30:39] I've been here since November. So we'll find out. >> Okay. And last question will

[1:30:44] the wood chips are they scheduled to be removed or is that something that everyone's

[1:30:49] looking at or it's not a big deal. >> Well, it is a big deal. And

[1:30:54] as you saw what happened on Hymas and on Del Mar, and we saw them floating and blocking

[1:30:58] sewer. So it is a big deal. It has its pros and cons again, right? It's really good for the

[1:31:04] gardens and the flowers and the vegetation. And then now we have a problem. So it's not

[1:31:09] we've been talking about it what the solution is. I can't tell you right now either, but

[1:31:13] it's part of our, our. What do you call it ongoing. We're looking at it. We're we're

[1:31:19] we're discussing it. Yeah. Very well. All right. Thank you. Thank you.

[1:31:24] >> Jose amorosa. >> Good evening. >> Good evening.

[1:31:39] >> I would like to thank Councilor Stalk and Councilor Potvin for taking their time

[1:31:46] and organizing the meeting for the residents of district seven and eight. Thank you. So like

[1:31:53] many other of my neighbors, I'm looking at putting in a sump pump as soon as possible. My

[1:31:59] understanding is that the current bylaw requires sump pumps to be connected to the

[1:32:03] city. However, at the last meeting, Mr. Mayor, you had said you were looking at

[1:32:09] changing that and actually having people disconnect. The city of Dorval, city of

[1:32:16] Beaconsfield, don't require the sorry, the residents to connect to the city. I've spoken to

[1:32:22] multiple experts, multiple. I've had people coming to my house and all their

[1:32:29] professional recommendations seem to be not to connect to the city system because if the

[1:32:35] city is overloaded, which. The corner of my street of Winthrop and Sunderland now floods

[1:32:42] regularly and quickly, all that water would back, back up, back into my house or my water or my

[1:32:49] water would have nowhere to go from the sump pump. It makes no sense for me to connect my sump

[1:32:55] pump to a system that's already overloaded. Even if I have a secondary discharge tube, that

[1:33:01] would mean that I need some sort of backflow valve on my sump pump to make sure that

[1:33:07] water doesn't back up into my house, and the secondary way second back up goes back up and

[1:33:17] out the secondary way and not back into my house. Has the city or when will the city make

[1:33:23] a decision about having its residents connect to the system that has failed multiple times?

[1:33:30] We need an answer now. We want to put in our sump pumps now. We don't want to wait till

[1:33:35] November to know what has to be done. That's my first. >> I can't give you that answer

[1:33:42] now. I can just tell you it's we're this is a bylaw that's in place right now in order to

[1:33:47] change a bylaw, there's a process. And that's what we're looking at. Are we going to

[1:33:51] change it? And then we have to go through the process if that's the case. But I mean

[1:33:55] we're we meet every day about this stuff. So I know it all seems long, I get it. But it

[1:34:01] takes time and we're working as fast as we can to solve these little issues or give you a

[1:34:06] clear direction. So yes, you'll have an answer, but I can't give it to you now.

[1:34:11] >> So all the residents that were connected with their sump pumps to the city and were all

[1:34:16] flooded in June, like, that's a negligence on the city that they had their residents

[1:34:23] connect to the system, and then they got water back into their house.

[1:34:27] >> Well, it's not I'm not going to I don't think I can comment because now you're talking

[1:34:31] legal Durban here, but I don't I think it's worked for many, many, many, many years. There's

[1:34:35] no issue now you get 150mm of rain, which is unpredictable, no different than a hurricane

[1:34:39] that comes through and your trees and everything are set for, you know, 80 mile an hour

[1:34:44] winds and everything gets taken away. And are we dead? No, it's Mother nature, unfortunately.

[1:34:48] Same thing with the flooding. So we're we as a as a city are trying to adopt the new reality.

[1:34:54] And that's why we're discussing not connecting you to it. But nobody could predict what

[1:34:58] happened. Right. >> So why why are you making not making a decision?

[1:35:03] >> Oh, it's not that we're. >> Not. >> It's not. Just because we

[1:35:07] have to get part of the building code as part of a bylaw. There's certain rules we

[1:35:11] have to amend in order to. And that's what we have to look at. That's all. It's just it's just

[1:35:17] there's so many things, you know, just writing this bylaw to get you. The money was only

[1:35:21] supposed to be done September, October. We dropped everything so that in July 8th we could

[1:35:26] pass at that meeting. If not, it would have gone to the fall. So like somebody said, Eric

[1:35:30] said the legal department, they're only so big, they can only do so much. Everything is

[1:35:34] a priority. And this became a priority. We're trying to get through it as fast as we can.

[1:35:39] So I know you don't want to hear it, but please be patient and believe us, we're working

[1:35:43] on it. >> But we all have trauma from the flooding.

[1:35:47] >> So we all. >> Want to get it done as soon as possible.

[1:35:50] >> I hear you, I hear you. >> Okay. >> Please.

[1:35:53] >> I would just say one thing. Please be like not connecting to the storm at all can also

[1:35:59] lead to other problems. Because if you over saturate your yard without any retention basin

[1:36:06] plan, you could be circulating the same water you're pumping out back into your French drain,

[1:36:13] into your sump pump. Your sump pump will be overwhelmed anyways regardless, and you

[1:36:18] will flood your basement. >> Only because we're in an area that the sewer, the the

[1:36:24] systems are always like blocked, fully blocked. My second item is reiterating the previous

[1:36:32] resident regarding the flooding that's happened. That happens on Winthrop and Delmar, as well

[1:36:38] as the retention basins on Hymas. What is being done? Who's looking into it? If

[1:36:43] there's an issue? And is there an independent company that's doing the review? What are they

[1:36:50] looking at? What's the timeline and how do we find out as citizen? What's happening with

[1:36:56] that? >> Our engineering department is looking at the situation as

[1:37:01] we speak with our professionals, and as soon as we get the findings, they'll be

[1:37:05] communicated to City council. Then after that, information can be provided through access

[1:37:10] to information. But we want to have the the findings yet. >> So as the residents of zone

[1:37:15] seven and eight, there's no way for us to get that information. >> The legal route to get that

[1:37:21] information is through access to information. Once we receive it via our own professionals

[1:37:28] for citizens. It's just it's just the legal US administrative, legal.

[1:37:31] >> So we have to make that request to get that information correct. Okay. Last question.

[1:37:38] The work that was done at Northview Park was that it was a couple of years back. Was

[1:37:44] that considered as a retention basin or was the drainage connected to our system when

[1:37:53] they redid that park? Is there any way of finding out this information?

[1:37:57] >> I don't have I we can get that information. I don't know, it wasn't part of that project,

[1:38:02] but have you asked the question, Eric? >> Yeah. And the same, in the

[1:38:06] same context was asked as well, like we mentioned in previously, that when industrial,

[1:38:12] residential or commercial buildings are built, they're required to have storage basins

[1:38:18] scheduled runoff, limited runoff. The question was that was asked, was that school

[1:38:23] under the same, you know, conditions that a municipality, if we were to build a building,

[1:38:28] both. Oh, Northview Park itself. Oh, sorry. I thought we meant call Saint Louis. I apologize.

[1:38:34] >> Northview Park. >> I apologize. >> We'll get to the we'll have

[1:38:37] to get back to you because I don't I don't have that information.

[1:38:40] >> Okay. >> All right. >> Thank you.

[1:38:42] >> Thank you. >> Mr. Mayor. We have one person that was added on to the

[1:38:46] list for residents. It's Janice Gadbois. >> Janice.

[1:38:53] >> Good evening, mayor and councilors. I would just like to ask a question. I back on my

[1:38:59] house, backs on to the paprika building, which is on Saint John. Yeah, I've noticed

[1:39:06] recently that it doesn't seem to be any activity there. It looks like it's empty. So I was

[1:39:11] wondering what is is this is it going to be zoned residential or what is going to happen

[1:39:16] there? >> It is empty. I believe they've sold and it's on what

[1:39:20] the zoning on, I forget now. It's a mixed use over there. The old building residential. I

[1:39:26] forget what the zoning is. And I don't know what the zoning is, but it is zoned for residential

[1:39:35] for sure. >> Because what I would like to know is, would you know what

[1:39:39] it's going to be built there? You know, you. >> Know.

[1:39:41] >> Not yet. >> No. >> Because right now, when, you

[1:39:44] know, when I look out of my I live in a raised bungalow. So I have a view of the, you know,

[1:39:50] the, the saint. Well, I don't really see Saint John's, but I see a lot of green. I see the

[1:39:54] trees. And I often think if you're going to build more condos, then I'm going to look

[1:40:00] at ten storey condos. And I was thinking maybe we could keep something, say 4 or 5, you know,

[1:40:07] in five stories. >> So absolutely, I, I don't know what the zoning is on

[1:40:12] there right now, but I don't we'll have to see when the project gets presented or we'll

[1:40:17] get back to you with what the zoning is, but it's it's own residential. Yeah. And it's at

[1:40:24] that, what happens in those type of projects that whoever ends up buying or who's bought

[1:40:30] it will present a project to the city within our guidelines, and then we'll take it from

[1:40:35] there. But I don't know what the guidelines are at the top of my head.

[1:40:39] >> Well, that's what I thought. When they present you, they're, you know, they're constructive,

[1:40:43] what they want to build. Is there any way that you could say, look, we would like to

[1:40:47] keep it low? Yeah. >> Not so. >> We can. It's a negotiation

[1:40:51] thing. There are some certain criteria. They have to meet densification numbers. So many

[1:40:54] doors per square per square hectare, so on and so forth. But there's there's all kinds

[1:40:58] of. And this has nothing to do with us. It goes through what is called the Park committee.

[1:41:03] So when they when they come, when a plan or a project gets presented to the city, they

[1:41:07] come to urban planning, they meet with urban planning, they sit with urban planning to make

[1:41:11] sure that they match all the criteria of what's allowed to go there. And then they

[1:41:15] negotiate back and forth to get to where they're supposed to be. And then from there, urban

[1:41:20] planning gives it to the park committee, which is the committee that's made up of

[1:41:23] residents, eight residents. I remember eight residents, which Kelly Kelly is the president of

[1:41:27] that committee. And then they discuss it along with one councilor or two councilors and

[1:41:33] some other people gets discussed. And then after it gets to where they think it

[1:41:38] should be or not be, they bring it to the city council. That's when we find out about it. With

[1:41:43] the recommendations or suggestions to approve, refuse or whatever. So we're the last

[1:41:48] ones to see it. >> Yeah. Now, the other thing is, is it's a safety issue. I

[1:41:52] live on Concord Crescent and I don't know if you are aware there's like a path where the

[1:41:57] bicycles go through. Now, Mr. Stork, you installed a barrier. Yeah, but they still come

[1:42:03] zooming out on their bicycles. They need to have a barrier, almost like in the village of

[1:42:09] Pointe Claire. >> Like that barrier? >> Yeah, because all the

[1:42:12] neighbors. Now we're all aware that the cyclists just come zooming out. So we.

[1:42:17] >> All have one of those. Yeah, double things. So actually that we're going to make that part

[1:42:21] of all our new bike paths like that. We're going to make it part of the new plan all the

[1:42:26] time. So we'll take note of it. And it will be noted in the minutes and we'll.

[1:42:30] >> Look into it. Thank you very much. Thank you. >> Thank you.

[1:42:34] >> Just want to state that the current zoning for that property is for ten stories of

[1:42:38] residential doesn't imply that I agree with it. But that's what the current zoning is.

[1:42:42] >> I think my up to ten stories maybe. >> Yeah.

[1:42:48] >> Okay. Up to ten stories. That's up to the urban blank up to. But I don't know. All right.

[1:42:56] >> I just would like to clear. There's absolutely no commitment at the moment for

[1:42:59] any ten stories. I just want to make sure that that's very clearly understood. Okay.

[1:43:04] There's no commitment to any height level at that site at this moment by council.

[1:43:11] >> All right. >> George Panchik. >> Thank you for permitting me

[1:43:25] to be here. I'm not a citizen of Pointe Claire. I'm a retired paprika or FP employee. And

[1:43:35] while I was there, I planted trees. At the back of the property. And I had some people

[1:43:43] plant trees on the front lawn. Also, I'm asking Pointe Claire to what can you do to protect

[1:43:52] those trees? And there's also some marshland at the back property. Is that going to be

[1:44:02] retained? We we need trees. >> Yeah, absolutely. >> I personally planted the

[1:44:09] ones at the back. They're mature trees, but there's trees on the front lawn, which can be

[1:44:19] transplanted. I did get involved with the Great Kayak Canoe Club in Pointe Claire,

[1:44:28] and we did transfer trees. So there is possibilities and I'd like when FP disappears that

[1:44:41] those trees are maintained and still on the property. Perfect. Thank you very much for

[1:44:51] listening to me. >> Thank you. All right. We'll go to the agenda, please.

[1:45:01] >> 5.1 adoption of a bylaw amending bylaw PC2748 to reduce the amount of the working fund.

[1:45:06] This bylaw aims to adjust the working fund level based on its utilization, while maintaining

[1:45:11] sufficient buffer to meet the municipality's needs. Consequently, the working fund

[1:45:15] is being reduced from $7,008,000 to $8,000 since. >> Organisé par la Asociacion
