00:00:30,912 --> 00:00:53,476
Thank you. Thank you sir. Good evening. Thank
you. Be seated. DC Premier, je vous vous. OU

00:00:53,476 --> 00:01:05,000

00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:15,000
financement de la mouline on the government
of Quebec. On a on a resolution. Transfer des

4
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:25,000
changements pour felicité. La la la la la.
Cause de la muela. So one of the items will
be for

5
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:30,000
the financing of the windmill. We received
money from the Quebec government. We have to

6
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:37,000
adapt our financing plan to adapt to their
financing plan. So we're going to change our

7
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:42,000
resolution. It will facilitate the financing
of the work on the windmill. And the second

8
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:52,000
item will be adjustments to our flooding financial
plan. Obviously, we've had many, many.

9
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:56,000
Demands and we found some little things that
we didn't think about. So we're going to

10
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,000
change some of the wording to facilitate and
clarify, so that it would be easier for you
guys

11
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:05,000
to understand. And we'll be able to help when
more causes. So those are the only two items

12
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:10,000
that will be on the agenda. August 25th 7:00.
All right. And it will be publicized

13
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:14,000
closer to the date, but it is a special meeting.
So sometimes it gets lost on the website. So

14
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:22,000
I'm telling you now. So you got two weeks notice.
All right. There you go. Okay. Come. Je je

15
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:31,000
vous venir sur le program de financier pour
la gestion des les ou sur les propriétaires

16
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:40,000
residential. Le mois de nier. Je suis tres
de la pour sa program. Nous avons. En santé

17
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:47,000
du monde et sont déja approuvé. So we've
we've received over 100 requests for the financial

18
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:52,000
aid program. And so far we've already approved
60. And it's just because there's a process.

19
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:57,000
It takes time. You need pictures and people
have. So we're trying to get them

20
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:02,000
approved as fast as we can. But it's been a
good turnout. This is a very encouraging and
shows

21
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,000
that many homeowners are ready to take concrete
actions to better protect their properties

22
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:13,000
from heavy rainfall events. But also like to
remind everyone that this program is first
and

23
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:18,000
foremost focused on prevention and adaptation.
It provides financial assistance up to

24
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,000
$5,000 for eligible work aimed at improving
stormwater management to residential

25
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:30,000
properties. You probably heard two in the newspapers,
on the radio that are on the news that

26
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:36,000
the city of Pointe-Claire has received $6.8
million from the government through their Oasis

27
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:43,000
program. The Oasis program is a program to
help municipalities adapt to climate change
through

28
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:57,000
infrastructure changes. We started a very rigorous
process in November, looking at

29
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,000
different things we had to do throughout the
city, and we came up with 11 minute, one of

30
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:06,000
the first ones that got done or being done
right now is the one on Belmont and Sandalwood.

31
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:10,000
That's part of the Oasis program, and the other
projects will be implemented into our

32
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:15,000
capital expenditures over the next two years,
and they'll be realized. So again, thank you

33
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:20,000
to the Quebec government for stepping up and
giving us that money. So come on, anglais on

34
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:27,000
the with $6.8 million and program the eight
the financier, the program Oasis, the

35
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:36,000
government of Quebec say poor aid the municipality.
The. The. Fer de traverser le systeme

travaux sur les projet de de la ville de Pointe-Claire.
The other thing with the aid, the

39
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,000
financial aid program for flooding, we told
you about Echo Habitacion, who is a

40
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,000
company that will come in and will contact
you, and they'll evaluate your property and
tell

41
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:33,000
you what you need to do to make your house
more water resilient. This program will only
be up

42
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:38,000
and running in September. The financial program
and that we're supposed to be together

43
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:43,000
and we're aiming for September, the two of
them. But because of the last big rainfall,
we

44
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:47,000
decided to accelerate the financial aid to
get you get the citizens money to start

45
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:52,000
doing the work on the homes that they know
they have to do. But the people that need the

46
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,000
evaluations. It was always planned for September,
and it's looking maybe a little bit

47
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:00,000
sooner, but let's plan on September that you'll
be able to reach out to them. They'll

48
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:05,000
be able to come in and evaluate your your property
for you. There is no number of houses

49
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:10,000
we're going to say yes to or no to. It will
be a time thing. This program is not going
to

50
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:15,000
die tomorrow. We're going to keep this program
going until there's no, you know, many

51
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:20,000
years for people to get the work done in their
homes and understand what they have to do

52
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:25,000
is going to take time. So we're going to the
council has the power to adopt the financial

53
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:30,000
aid that we've accepted for this program. If
we have to put more money into it, we'll

54
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,000
discuss it and we'll keep it going. So don't
worry that it's in September and I'm not going

55
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:39,000
to be the first 100 people. You're going to
get refused. Nobody's going to get refused.

56
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:50,000
It will just be a little bit longer than expected.
All right. But it'll be a great program. I

57
00:06:50,000 --> 00:07:04,000
just for a a program echo the echo. Evaluate

plan that the regulator maison. And the other

61
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:55,000
thing is that you probably seen or you've heard
that we've changed our garbage collection,

62
00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:02,000
adapting to climate change. So we've been collecting
garbage for the last eight years in the

63
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:08,000
summertime, every week. We are going to continue
that now to the end of October, because

64
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:14,000
September and October are warmer, and that
will facilitate that part of it.

65
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:18,000
Composting will change in the winter time.
It's going to go to every two weeks because
the

66
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:23,000
winter composting, it's cold, it doesn't smell,
there's no issues. But I really want to

67
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:28,000
make one strong message. Although we're increasing
the garbage pickup every week until

68
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:32,000
the end of October, Pointe-Claire, we're agreeing
sustainable, environmental

69
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:38,000
friendly city. We need to get used to composting.
If you compost properly, you should

70
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:43,000
have no garbage and you can put everything
in your compost. You can put meat, bones, greasy

71
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:48,000
things. So we've always done well. We're always
number one or number two. But the

72
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:52,000
government and the city of Montreal is going
to get much, much stricter. And it's going

73
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:57,000
to be harder and harder to keep pushing this
program of picking up garbage every week. So
start

74
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:01,000
composting properly and you'll see that you
won't have garbage, and you won't be asking
us to

75
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:06,000
extend the garbage anymore. So we don't know
how long this program can last, maybe last

76
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:11,000
one year or more, because the government will
tell you you can't do it. So I'm asking you

77
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:15,000
all be proud. Make Pointe-Claire proud. Let's
be the lowest in garbage pickup in

78
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:24,000
the highest in compost pickup. So start learning
about it today. Thank you. For the they

79
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:36,000
collect la la la la calendrier pour les poubelle
en place de. Toute la mise en. La fin de

what does it mean? Deliver me. Come on.

81

p travail de compost. Merci beaucoup. You

83
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:30,000
will see an initiative. Occur from August 20th
3rd to September 6th. I invite you to

84
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:34,000
take part in the plasma donation drive being
organized in collaboration with Hema

85
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:40,000
Quebec at the Kirkland Donor Center. We often
hear about blood donations, but much less

86
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:45,000
about plasma donations. Yet plasma plays an
essential role in the treatment of any

87
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:56,000
patients, and the need continues to grow. Our
Laura Z amici a vous avez un peu de je

88
00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:03,000
vous encourager vraiment comme moi et rendez
vous a Québec pour participate. So it's the

89
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:10,000
first time we're going to host this, the mayor's
plasma drive. It's for ten days. And I would

90
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:15,000
love us to be able to say that we had X number
of citizens and be right up there. It's a great

91
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:20,000
a great, great cause. I learned a lot about
it lately. And blood is easy to give. Plasma

92
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:24,000
is just as easy. It takes longer, but you can
give it a lot more often and there's a

93
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:29,000
lot more use for plasma. It goes into many,
many things. Medication. And you being a

94
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:35,000
nursing practitioner, you can tell us all the
fancy stuff. No, no. So anyway, yeah, there's
a

95
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:40,000
lot of need for plasma. So please, if you have
the time, take it and tell you they'll

96
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:49,000
know you're from Pointe-Claire and you'll be
welcome. Thank you. Lavender van der. Are very

97
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:58,000
important for Pointe-Claire. Inauguration.
A fisherman, William Bill Mcmurchie Park,

98
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:04,000
Edgewater. Mr. It will be a special occasion
to pay tribute to a former mayor who dedicated

99
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:09,000
a significant part of his life, the city of
Pointe-Claire, and to our community. The McMurtry

100
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:14,000
family will be there along with members of
council. I hope that many of you will join
us to

101
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:25,000
share this moment of remembrance and recognition.
Let No Bull Park A in Couvert A

102
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:30,000
take the time to enjoy a picnic and enjoy the
festivities so the McMurtry family will be

103
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:37,000
present. It's in Edgewater Park. The key to
the. The. What's it in English? The key. The
the.

104
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:42,000
The key that was built in back in 2000 for
the millennium year will be named after Mister

105
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:46,000
McMurtry for his devotion to the city and everything
else. So everybody's welcome starts

106
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:58,000
at 1:00 on the 22nd of August. And there's
a lot of other stuff happening. We've got the

107
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:02,000
Blues Fest, Blues Festival, we've got all kinds
of stuff happening in Pointe-Claire,

108
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:06,000
we've got the bark in the park, all kinds of
stuff happening this month. So take the time,

109
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:21,000
go on the website and all the information is
there. Thank you very much. Okay. Agenda. Oh,

110
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:32,000
sorry, sorry, sorry. Ways of it. Mr. stark,
will you come and say.

111
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:39,000
>> Bonjour? I guess what I would say is that
we had our town hall for water mitigation

112
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:51,000
a couple of weeks ago, so. Or shall I? Person.
It was a good heartfelt discussion was open.

113
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:57,000
It was free. There was a lot of positivity.
Then we switched online. We had about, I think
6

114
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:04,000
or 7 people online. As. Unregistered. Mais
je n'ai pas fait. J'ai fait une alors je

115
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:10,000
voulais. I want to share with everybody, but
unfortunately, my my electronic skills weren't

116
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:19,000
at its best that day. Thereafter, you know,
I visited many of the the Northview

117
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:22,000
citizens that were flooded. If there's any
other Northview citizens that were flooded
that

118
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:28,000
would like me to come by and give them a hand
and such, just reach out to me. I'd like to

119
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:32,000
thank the city as well for the hard work they're
doing. It's not always apparent. I mean,

120
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:39,000
it's p maybe, you know, we could always do
things better, maybe in better communication,

121
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:49,000
maybe a bit of this, a bit of that. But our
intent is pure podosoje. La la microphone a
la

122
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:53,000
mer. >> Mr. Pourbaix. >> Yes. Hello, everybody.
Thank

123
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:59,000
you very much for coming out tonight. I second
what Councilor Storch has mentioned.

124
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:03,000
We did a Group seven, district seven, district
eight water mitigation meeting, and I think

125
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:12,000
it was a resounding success. We tried to provide
some clarity. When I see the the new. UN peu

126
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:20,000
de clarity sur la situation. Encore une fois,
je vous merci beaucoup pour et la aujourd'hui.

127
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:26,000
>> Romans Bienvenue a good evening and welcome
to everyone. I hope the meeting is

128
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:35,000
informative for you. >> Madam Kelly, >> You

132
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:14,000

new signages that have gone up in the area
in

133
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:19,000
front of Wild Willy's on Donegani and in front
of the Supermarché PA. And so it's

134
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:23,000
just always important if we're thinking about
how we're driving to go slowly, be

135
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:28,000
careful, be mindful of pedestrians, that we
share the road together. And that's just

136
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:37,000
a reminder for the Valois sector. So thank
you very much. >> Mr. Andrews. Brzezinski.

>> Francois, for cellular le retour des déchets
in September October, expanding weekly

138
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:51,000
garbage pickup was an important commitment
for me. When I was going door to door in the

139
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:56,000
election campaign, it was in my platform brochure,
and it was a big issue for a lot of people,

140
00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:01,020
particularly young families, people with pets
and people who lived in townhouses, like the

141
00:17:01,020 --> 00:17:06,020
ones in Donegani, where with the garbage being
close to the door, there was often an insect

142
00:17:06,020 --> 00:17:14,020
infestation. So people would bring me in the
door to avoid both of us getting swarmed. So

143
00:17:14,020 --> 00:17:19,020
I'm very glad that we're able to do that. It's
something that I advocated for as a member
of

144
00:17:19,020 --> 00:17:24,020
council, and although the mayor and I do not
always agree, I give him full credit for

145
00:17:24,020 --> 00:17:31,020
working with council and the administration
for getting it done. Thank you.

146
00:17:31,020 --> 00:17:38,020
>> Mr. Tremblay. >> Merci, monsieur. Good evening.
Bonsoir. Donc je une

147
00:17:38,020 --> 00:17:46,020
fois de plus tous ceux qui ont participé a
la premiere session de co-creation consacrée
au

148
00:17:46,020 --> 00:17:52,020
développement du Parc Hermitage dans mon district
au nord de Pointe-Claire, une deuxieme

149
00:17:52,020 --> 00:18:00,080
session aura lieu le mercredi au center sportif
Oliver Court de avant, ma savoir si vous

150
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:06,080
vous souhaitez participer plaisir de vous informer.
I'd like to once again thank

151
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:11,080
everyone who participated in the first co-creation
session on the future development of

152
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:17,080
Hermitage Park back in June. A second session
will be held Wednesday, August 19th at the

153
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:23,080
Oliver Court Sports Center from 630 to 8 p.m.
Let me know if you'd like to participate, and

154
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:28,080
I'll follow up for you with additional information.
Secondly, just a quick reminder

155
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:33,080
for all residents that Brunswick Boulevard,
Fairview Avenue and the service road are

156
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:40,080
not drop off areas for REM commuters. That's
an important thing to keep in mind. For

157
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:45,080
security reasons, please use the designated
areas to do so. Much safer. Better yet, you
can

158
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:52,080
use the STM walk, bike or bike to the REM.
It's quite easy to get to the place when you
get

159
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:56,080
used to doing it. I'll do et tous les citoyens
le Boulevard, Brunswick Avenue, Fairview et

160
00:18:56,080 --> 00:19:04,040
la voie de service NE sont pas des zones de
debarquement pour les veillées utilisez. Les

161
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:12,040
emplacements et effet, c'est beaucoup plus
sécuritaires. Si vous NE pouvez prendre le
ASTM

162
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:20,040
ou pour vous rendre jusqu'a la merci. >> Merci,
monsieur le Matthews.

163
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:29,040
>> Tout le monde a. Passer un vacance de la
construction et c'est tout le monde avec leur

164
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:36,040
famille. So I just want to hope that everybody
enjoyed their construction, holiday time off

165
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:48,040
and time with family. And welcome back to Council.
>> Thank you. Mr.

166
00:19:48,040 --> 00:20:01,000
>> Yes. La da da da par rapport a la cloture
on le projet Belmont. Donc pour le part et

167
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:09,000
donc la cloture voir la tour de la zone, trois
terrains de soccer. So there was a question

168
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:13,000
that was asked during the previous council
meeting pertaining to the installation

169
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:18,000
of a fencing on the terra cotta Belmont project.
Essentially the fencing, there's four

170
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:23,000
intervention zones, and the fencing will be
installed on zone three, which is

171
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:34,000
surrounding the soccer pitch. Thank you, thank
you. They do. >> Du jour 1.1 adoption of the

172
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:45,000
agenda. But before adoption, the adoption of
the agenda, we have to remove 17 point one.

173
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:55,000
Thank. The. >> 8.1. And the reason for being
removed is that we just

174
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,000
got some information a little bit too late,
and we just want to make sure that we understand

175
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:07,060
everything. That's the only reason why it's
being removed. Thank you.

176
00:21:07,060 --> 00:21:19,060
>> 12.9 approval. >> Mover and seconder for
1.1. >> Kelly Thorstad.

177
00:21:19,060 --> 00:21:26,060
>> And 3.1 Mr. Mayor. >> 3.1 and the minutes.
Yep. >> And I move to approve 1.1

178
00:21:26,060 --> 00:21:29,060
and 3.1 the agenda and the minutes from the
previous meeting. Kelly Thorstad Cullen

179
00:21:29,060 --> 00:21:33,060
district three. >> Second by. >> Mike Kelsey.

180
00:21:33,060 --> 00:21:49,060
>> All in favor. Merci beaucoup. >> Catherine
Baker. >> So just to remind you that

181
00:21:49,060 --> 00:21:54,060
everybody has a three minute timer up on the
wall, and that way we'll all get a chance to

182
00:21:54,060 --> 00:21:58,060
speak. Thank you. >> Good evening, Mr. Mayor
and council members. I'm here

183
00:21:58,060 --> 00:22:03,020
tonight because 80 child care spaces that serve
primarily Pointe Claire families are at

184
00:22:03,020 --> 00:22:08,020
risk of being lost through the proposed redevelopment
of 477 Delmar Avenue. I'm a resident

185
00:22:08,020 --> 00:22:13,020
of district three and a parent of two children
who attend the Academy daycare. I'm speaking

186
00:22:13,020 --> 00:22:18,020
on behalf of many families who depend on this
daycare every day. While the daycare is

187
00:22:18,020 --> 00:22:22,020
located in district eight, the majority of
families it serves lives in district three,
five,

188
00:22:22,020 --> 00:22:27,020
seven, and eight. For working parents, proximity
matters childcare is part of our daily

189
00:22:27,020 --> 00:22:31,020
routine, and having care close to home allows
us to spend more time with our children and

190
00:22:31,020 --> 00:22:36,020
maintain a better quality of life. The Daycare's
location within residential areas also

191
00:22:36,020 --> 00:22:40,020
supports active transportation. During summer
months, it's common to see bicycles,

192
00:22:40,020 --> 00:22:44,020
scooters and strollers lined up outside during
pickup. This use of active transport should
not

193
00:22:44,020 --> 00:22:48,020
be minimized. It highlights one of the many
ways that living close to daycare increases

194
00:22:48,020 --> 00:22:53,020
quality of life. For many Pointe Claire families,
the daycare proximity to the source

195
00:22:53,020 --> 00:22:56,020
station is another advantage for families who
combine childcare drop off with their

196
00:22:56,020 --> 00:23:01,080
daily commute. The potential loss of this daycare
would have a measurable impact between

197
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:06,080
highway 20 and highway 40, and between Sources
Boulevard and Saint John's Boulevard. There

198
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:12,080
are six childcare centers providing 426 spaces
for families looking for care in a

199
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:19,080
center environment. The 80 spaces at the academy
represent nearly 20% of the childcare

200
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:25,080
capacity in this zone, losing one in every
five child care spaces would place additional

201
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:29,080
pressure on an already limited childcare system
and force many families to seek care further

202
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:35,080
from home. We often think of roads, parks,
arenas and transit as essential municipal

203
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:39,080
infrastructure, but child care is also essential
infrastructure. Without it,

204
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:43,080
parents cannot fully participate in the workforce,
and communities become less

205
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:47,080
attractive to young families. The city of Pointe
Claire's strategic plan identifies

206
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:52,080
attract and retain families as a key objective,
and preserving child care spaces is directly

207
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:58,080
aligned with that goal. Finally, I want to
put it on public record that Academy Day is
an

208
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:02,040
exceptional example of community integration
in early childhood education, and a

209
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:06,040
model that should be celebrated and preserved.
The children walk to Viking Pool four

210
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:10,040
mornings a week during the summer for swimming
lessons. They use the bus stop across

211
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,040
the street to travel to Balbirnie Arena for
skating lessons and to the aquatic

212
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:17,040
center for gym and swim. They use Augusta Park
for daily pickups, and they visit

213
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:21,040
regularly. David Beck, Parc du Voyageur, Stockwell
Park, North Northview Park and Arthur Park

214
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:26,040
as part of their daily activities. This exceptional
level of community integration

215
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:30,040
is made possible in large part because of the
daycares location on Delmar Avenue.

216
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:33,040
Council is being asked to consider the future
of this property. I respectfully ask

217
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:39,040
that you also consider the value of the community
service currently being provided there.

218
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:43,040
Child care is not simply another commercial
use. It is essential infrastructure that

219
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:47,040
allows families to live, work and thrive in
Pointe Claire. Before any decision is made,
I

220
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:51,040
urge council to carefully consider what would
be lost if these 80 child care spaces

221
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:55,040
disappear. While land can be redeveloped, community
assets like this are far more

222
00:24:55,040 --> 00:25:02,000
difficult and costly to replace. Thank you
for your time. >> Thank you very much. We've

223
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:06,000
all discussed the council. I don't really have
a lot to say except that, you know, the

224
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:10,000
owner wants to sell the building or he sold
the building. And it's been a big

225
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:14,000
debate around the table. We understand the
importance, but the gentleman has the right
to

226
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:18,000
sell the building and the person buying it.
The zoning is already there for what he wants

227
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:22,000
to do. So, you know, we've looked at it seriously
and we'll see where the future

228
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:42,000
plays out. Thank you, thank you. >> Bonjour,
monsieur. My question concerns exactly.

229
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:55,000
Point paascu. Donc je suis. Aussi Académie
des petites qui est donc avenue del mar et

230
00:25:55,000 --> 00:26:06,060

la porte la voix. Du terrain au

231
00:26:06,060 --> 00:26:16,060
remplacement du batiment par des maisons individuelles
et du coup moi. Quelques recherches

232
00:26:16,060 --> 00:26:29,060
sur pointe le ministere de la famille qui sont
reparti sur. La ville de la Académie des

233
00:26:29,060 --> 00:26:44,060
petites plus pratiquement sur la ville de Pointe-Claire
par. ET du cou. Moi je vois. Je veux

234
00:26:44,060 --> 00:26:56,060
pas. Mais je comprendre l'intéret pour la
ville pour la communauté de changer et de

235
00:26:56,060 --> 00:27:04,020
permettre en fait des maisons a la place de
qui apporte un service qui sont utiles. Merci

236
00:27:04,020 --> 00:27:14,020
pour votre attention. >> Merci beaucoup. >>
Juste pour la changement de

237
00:27:14,020 --> 00:27:32,020
a déja été. Comme des. Important de savoir.
>> Carl.

238
00:27:32,020 --> 00:27:40,020
>> I'd like to submit a. Copy. The same document.
>> No, no, you give it to the

239
00:27:40,020 --> 00:27:45,020
legal department. Please. Just give it. >>
So all the councilors, the

240
00:27:45,020 --> 00:27:52,020
mayor and the city manager have a copy of that
plan? So some of you might have noticed that

241
00:27:52,020 --> 00:27:59,020
I've been asking for a plan. This is came out
in various forms, including cartoons. I

242
00:27:59,020 --> 00:28:05,080
wrote a plan and a proposal, and I looked at
it from two perspectives. One, as a

243
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:11,080
potential mayor of the city and one as a concerned
citizen who may have been a victim of a

244
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:17,080
flood. So I created this plan as an outline
and a framework that allows us to communicate

245
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:23,080
properly together as a working team together.
And that was the purpose of that submission.
Now

246
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:31,080
I have two questions. One question is, I've
heard a lot of talk about ETS, so I have

247
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:37,080
only whenever I hear ETSI think of excessive
talking syndrome. So I like to hear from the

248
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:44,080
council what ETS is. I understand it's an engineering
service. I understand that the

249
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:50,080
Pointe Claire goes through a tender process
before selecting. I wanted to know if there's
any

250
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:55,080
affiliation personally with any of the people.
I want to know the scope of what the service

251
00:28:55,080 --> 00:29:00,040
is being provided in a general sense that meets
my time restriction. And that's the

252
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:05,040
first question. The second question, you can
answer it, or I can ask the second. The

253
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:12,040
second question is, of the 11 different projects
that were selected by the engineering

254
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:18,040
firm that has been hired, in addition to the
council members who helped make the decision,

255
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:27,040
has the Del Mar watershed project been included
in that? 11 project? That was determined.

256
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:31,040
>> Mr. Gerard, do you want to respond about
the e. T s contract that we have?

257
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:38,040
>> Yeah. So this is l'École de technologie
supérieure, essentially the city of

258
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:45,040
Pointe-Claire. Approximately two years ago
conducted an agreement with the technology

259
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:51,040
to do a study of our stormwater management
network and how we can improve that. I'm giving

260
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:57,040
you the details at a very high level, but if
you want to send me an email, I can send you

261
00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:01,000
information that was provided publicly with
that project, and I'll provide you a little
bit

262
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:07,000
more details on the scope of the work that
is done by the BTS that will benefit the city

263
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:12,000
moving forward and identifying the zones that
need intervention with respect to

264
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:17,000
stormwater management. So that's that's the
collaboration that we have with the

265
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:21,000
technologie supérieure. >> Are there any restrictions
with with respect to the reply

266
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:26,000
that you give me in terms of, you know, confidentiality
or this this type of thing.

267
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:31,000
>> Anything that's been done publicly, I'm
allowed to publicly provide you the

268
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,000
information. >> Thank you. >> Yep.

269
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:37,000
>> Then both my questions are answered. Thank
you for your time.

270
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:53,000
>> Thank you. >> Danielle Latour. >> Yeah.
This. Oh thank you. No,

271
00:30:53,000 --> 00:31:09,060
as long as it's close by, I'm good balance.
Oh. Danielle Latour here. Mr. mayor, members

272
00:31:09,060 --> 00:31:17,060
of council, can you hear me? >> Yes. >> Residents
are being asked to

273
00:31:17,060 --> 00:31:26,060
accept that our municipality faces increasingly
urgent infrastructure needs from aging

274
00:31:26,060 --> 00:31:35,060
water, sewer and drainage systems to recurring
flooding that threatens streets, homes

275
00:31:35,060 --> 00:31:42,060
and local businesses. Yet residents should
not have to choose between essential

276
00:31:42,060 --> 00:31:51,060
infrastructure renewal, higher property taxes
and reduced municipal services. So I'm

277
00:31:51,060 --> 00:32:02,020
asking for a clear commitment. What is the
city's plan to raise the additional capital

278
00:32:02,020 --> 00:32:11,020
required to address these urgent infrastructure
needs without increasing property

279
00:32:11,020 --> 00:32:21,020
taxes and without cutting essential municipal
services? So I'm asking that question

280
00:32:21,020 --> 00:32:28,020
tonight. I know we have restrictions on the
number of minutes we have left, but I

281
00:32:28,020 --> 00:32:41,020
would like the city to publicly identify external
funding targets. A dedicated funding

282
00:32:41,020 --> 00:32:53,020
strategy, private sector and institutional
partnerships, cost saving opportunities,

283
00:32:53,020 --> 00:33:04,080
flood prevention priorities, a transparent,
publicly accountable investment plan.

284
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:17,080
Will the city publish a multi-year infrastructure
plan showing project by project the

285
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:26,080
problem being addressed? The estimated cost,
the urgency and risk level, the external

286
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:34,080
funding being pursued, the city's required
contribution, the expected economic and

287
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:42,080
community benefits and the target completion
date. Most importantly, what will be done

288
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:52,080
now? Residents cannot afford to wait until
another major flood infrastructure failure
or

289
00:33:52,080 --> 00:34:00,040
emergency forces the city to spend substantially
more money reacting to problems that could

290
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:07,040
have been prevented. Every dollar invested
in prevention today can potentially avoid

291
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:16,040
much larger costs tomorrow. We therefore need
a proactive strategy. That combines

292
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:24,040
government funding, partnerships, innovation,
cost efficiencies and long term

293
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:36,040
asset management. Will the city publish a multi-year
infrastructure plan showing

294
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:44,040
project by project? Most importantly. Finally,
residents cannot afford to wait until

295
00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:52,040
another major flood infrastructure failure
or emergency faces the city to

296
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:56,040
spend substantially more money reacting to
problems that could have been prevented. Every

297
00:34:56,040 --> 00:35:02,000
dollar invested in prevention today can potentially
avoid much larger costs.

298
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:06,000
>> I'm gonna have to ask you to stop now. >>
My commitment. Okay. The

299
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:12,000
objectives should be straightforward. Modernize
our aging infrastructure.

300
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:19,000
>> Mr. Latour. >> Flooding protect homes and
businesses. Maintain quality

301
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:25,000
municipal services. Mr. Latour. >> I'm going
to ask you. >> Your property tax burden on

302
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:29,000
residents. Thank you for the opportunity. >>
So everything you mentioned,

303
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:35,000
we're already doing, so as of November of this
year with this new council got put into place,

304
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:41,000
we made water flooding a priority. We've adopted
all our budgets to invest in the

305
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:46,000
infrastructure that needed to that needs work.
It's not just the infrastructure. It's not

306
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:50,000
just the city of Pointe-Claire, it's the city
of Pointe-Claire, it's the residents. It's

307
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:54,000
different levels of government. We went to
provincial government. We just got $6.8

308
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:59,000
million. We looked at our eyes, our capital
expenditure. We that we that is a five year

309
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:05,060
plan. We have reworked that. We've had 6 or
12 meetings since November to readjust

310
00:36:05,060 --> 00:36:12,060
everything in order to put the money, allocate
the money towards flood management and

311
00:36:12,060 --> 00:36:16,060
infrastructure work. We're not going to fix
this overnight. And you and I, there's no one

312
00:36:16,060 --> 00:36:21,060
in this room who can tell us when the next
storm is going to come. But I can tell you
that

313
00:36:21,060 --> 00:36:26,060
everybody in the city, the engineering department,
Public Works Administration, council,

314
00:36:26,060 --> 00:36:35,060
we are all 100% dedicated to solving or trying
to solve as many of these issues as we can,

315
00:36:35,060 --> 00:36:39,060
as fast as we can. The proof is in the pudding.
We got elected in November, December 15th.
We

316
00:36:39,060 --> 00:36:44,060
had a public meeting explaining to you the
work that the city had already done. It takes

317
00:36:44,060 --> 00:36:50,060
hours and weeks and months to analyze and do
studies and find out when. When we do have
these

318
00:36:50,060 --> 00:36:56,060
different storms, we asked the citizens, please
call us and tell us what happened. We need

319
00:36:56,060 --> 00:37:01,020
to collect data. We need to collect information
so we can analyze and identify areas. And

320
00:37:01,020 --> 00:37:06,020
we every time it's rained the last the last
year, the three storms that we've had, we've

321
00:37:06,020 --> 00:37:10,020
found different situations, different problems,
and we're addressing them and we've got

322
00:37:10,020 --> 00:37:14,020
experts working on we're doing everything we
can. I'm very confident when I say that we

323
00:37:14,020 --> 00:37:19,020
are working so hard on this. I'm proud of what
we're doing. Is it perfect? Is it fast

324
00:37:19,020 --> 00:37:24,020
enough? Never. We don't know when the next
storm is going to come. We have no idea. But
I

325
00:37:24,020 --> 00:37:28,020
can just tell you that we are you know, we
went out and invested $1 million in buying

326
00:37:28,020 --> 00:37:33,020
our own truck, so we'll be able to clean out
the sewers. We'll be able to do intervention
on a

327
00:37:33,020 --> 00:37:38,020
regular basis. We don't have to rely on a third
party, a third party, like I said, December

328
00:37:38,020 --> 00:37:41,020
15th meeting, March 15th, we had another meeting
explaining to you about cohabitation and

329
00:37:41,020 --> 00:37:45,020
all these different things that you can do
to, to help your help solidify your, your,
your,

330
00:37:45,020 --> 00:37:50,020
your system around your house. We came up with
a financial plan supposed to come out in

331
00:37:50,020 --> 00:37:54,020
September. We accelerated it. So it was available
July 8th, right after the last storm. So

332
00:37:54,020 --> 00:37:58,020
people can start investing in their home. But
again, it's a joint venture and we are all
on

333
00:37:58,020 --> 00:38:03,080
board. And I think that the response I'm seeing
from the citizens, the compliments we're

334
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:08,080
getting, obviously, there's there's flood anxiety,
there's some upset people, but I can

335
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:14,080
just tell you that everybody we know, I lived
it, he said. I'm a mayor. I lived being the

336
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:18,080
mayor. I lived being flooded. I lived being
not having enough insurance, and I have flood

337
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:23,080
anxiety. I got it all. So I know what we're
living. So that being said, all everything
you

338
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:27,080
said we're doing and we're doing it well. All
right. And I'm very, very confident and

339
00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:34,080
very proud of what we're doing. So thank you.
Next. No, no. Sorry. You have to thank you.

340
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:51,080
>> Gary Carr. >> Mr. mayor, I have two items.
The first being I'd like to

341
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:57,080
thank yourself, your council, the Director
general and your staff for taking care of that

342
00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:03,040
intersection of homeless and still view when
it comes to pedestrian safety. Thank you.

343
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:09,040
Well done. Thank you. Secondly, I'd like to
have you guys perhaps take a look at Victor

344
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:16,040
Devies. It's a two way street with no parking.
More times than not you'll find big rigs.

345
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:23,040
They're parked up to three four hours at a
shot. When they do, cars come this way and
somebody

346
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:29,040
coming on. It's a possible, perhaps to get
a center line painted there so they would

347
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:34,040
know it's two way traffic, because sometimes
those big rigs are traveling right dead

348
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:40,040
center in a row, and your public security is
responded to enormous amounts of accidents

349
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:45,040
there. Thank you. >> Yeah. Thank you. We'll
definitely take a look at it.

350
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:49,040
Thank you very much. And thank you for your
compliments. Thank you. That was anybody who's

351
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:53,040
been coming here since, I guess November has
heard about the great intersection still view.

352
00:39:53,040 --> 00:40:02,000
It's finally done. So there you go. >> Lorraine.
Pauline.

353
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:08,000
>> Good evening Pauline. 131 Allston District
four. So this is a follow up from the

354
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:12,000
questions asked at the council meeting held
last month. During that meeting, I came before
you

355
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:17,000
and asked what the city was going to do about
two specific topics the inability of the

356
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:21,000
city's infrastructure to take away water from
residents properties, and the ditch

357
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:28,000
located on the townhouse property, both in
August 2024 and June of this year. Our

358
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:33,000
house flooded. After the first flood. We spent
several tens of thousands of dollars in

359
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:38,000
improvements and renovations to our homes infrastructure
to prevent this from happening

360
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:43,000
again. Less than two years later, in June,
we were flooded again, as were many of the

361
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:48,000
residents here. Tonight I have two sump pumps
installed, and they were not able to send any

362
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:53,000
water to the city's pipes because they were
full, providing subsidies to

363
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:57,000
homeowners to protect their own homes can only
go so far when the city's infrastructure is

364
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:03,060
ill suited to deal with the new reality of
the rainfall. So I ask you as my first question,

365
00:41:03,060 --> 00:41:08,060
what will the city do to improve the infrastructure
on Alston Avenue, a street that

366
00:41:08,060 --> 00:41:15,060
has been transformed by the amount of development
that has gone on around it? Second,

367
00:41:15,060 --> 00:41:21,060
residents warned the city many years ago about
their concerns with the development being

368
00:41:21,060 --> 00:41:28,060
built on wetlands and located so close to our
property line. We warned again about the ditch

369
00:41:28,060 --> 00:41:34,060
that was receiving a constant flow of water,
even in dry conditions from pumps under

370
00:41:34,060 --> 00:41:42,060
those townhouses. Those pumps empty into an
open ditch. Finally, I warned the city

371
00:41:42,060 --> 00:41:47,060
about the unusually high level of water in
these ditches. Just a few weeks before June's

372
00:41:47,060 --> 00:41:53,060
flooding. During the June event, this ditch
was completely filled and had saturated my
own

373
00:41:53,060 --> 00:42:00,020
yard, leaving me no doubt that it contributed
to our flooding this time. Besides that, it
has

374
00:42:00,020 --> 00:42:05,020
been filled with algae, bulrushes and become
has become a breeding ground for

375
00:42:05,020 --> 00:42:11,020
mosquitoes because it is not functioning as
per the plans approved by the city. Our own

376
00:42:11,020 --> 00:42:16,020
councilor, Mr. Swidsinski, has requested plans
and studies related to the project through

377
00:42:16,020 --> 00:42:23,020
an access to information request many, many
weeks ago. But as of now that has not been

378
00:42:23,020 --> 00:42:29,020
approved. So I'll ask again what is the city
prepared to do to protect the residents of

379
00:42:29,020 --> 00:42:35,020
Allston who have this constant flood threat
in our backyards? >> So to answer your first

380
00:42:35,020 --> 00:42:38,020
question about what the city is going to do
about infrastructure in Austin, and

381
00:42:38,020 --> 00:42:44,020
you mentioned that your sump pumps are running
in the the system could not take the water,

382
00:42:44,020 --> 00:42:50,020
so it wasn't going anywhere. One thing that
we're looking at is changing the bylaw on how
a

383
00:42:50,020 --> 00:42:55,020
sump pump is connected up to the city services,
and that in the event that the city

384
00:42:55,020 --> 00:43:00,080
services are full, then you would have a bypass
and would spit the water out onto a lawn

385
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:04,080
or into a rain garden or whatever. So that's
a building code thing that we have to look

386
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:08,080
at. And we're looking at changing that so that
that would solve that problem.

387
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:11,080
>> Hopefully the city will pay for that, sir.
>> We won't pay for it.

388
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:15,080
Depending on, on the on the situation. It would
be something we would pay for in

389
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:21,080
our financial plan. If you have a sump pump,
it needs to be adjusted to to help water from

390
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:27,080
coming back into your house. Yes, we look at
it for sure. >> But the the I believe that

391
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:34,080
the recommendation or the, the bylaws from
the city required that the, that the sump pumps

392
00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:37,080
had to be emptied into the city. Right. Infrastructure
previously.

393
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:42,080
>> Right. So now with the new reality and we're
going with the certain code that we're

394
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:48,080
following, but that that might have to change.
So that has to change. And if you've never
had

395
00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:52,080
a problem in your house before, well, then
you won't have to do it. If you've had a problem,

396
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:56,080
you might be one of the candidates to ask for
compensation to make that

397
00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:58,080
change. >> And where, where would that water
flow to?

398
00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:03,040
>> It would flow into somewhere on your property,
into a rain garden, onto your lawn. What it

399
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:08,040
does is it ends up, instead of forcing it into
a system, it was already blocked, it puts it

400
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:13,040
on to a property and it will disperse slowly.
It will end up in the sewer system eventually,

401
00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:17,040
but it slows down the flow and overwhelming
the sewer system. So you're not the only one.

402
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:24,040
>> I'd be interested to see how that would
work when I have the water in my backyard already.

403
00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:30,040
>> I'm just telling you what we're looking
at in general. Okay? And I'm not only your,

404
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:36,040
but in general. The other question about this.
We have met with the association, the

405
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:42,040
lady sitting right here, we met last week at
the City Hall with engineering, with your yourself

406
00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:48,040
and a couple of other people. And we went over
the plans. We went over some situations.

407
00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:54,040
They've agreed to look at their property and
hire a specialist to look at what they have
to do

408
00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:58,040
to mitigate the water on their property. And
step by step, we're going to see what can be

409
00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:03,000
done to make it a better situation. >> Okay,
so in response to that,

410
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:09,000
I just want to point out that they are prima
three. I'm talking about prima two, right?

411
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:12,000
Which is a different ditch and a completely
different. >> It's a one right along the

412
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:18,000
back, right along Austin. Austin. I see. Austin.
Yeah. But that ditch, if I remember

413
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:24,000
right, it's we, we sent somebody there the
other day in their big rain. The day that we

414
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:29,000
it's not. >> It's not, it's not her. >> It's
not her. But we sent

415
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:34,000
somebody on that property that day and everything
was, was. >> To, to the ditch behind my

416
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:37,000
house. >> Yes. We were there and it seemed
to be running fine from

417
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:43,000
what I was told. But let's we met with them.
We solved that problem. Let's. Andrew brings

418
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:49,000
up your question all the time. We've done an
intervention. We've looked at it. I'll get

419
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:53,000
more information. We'll get back to you. But
right now, that ditch was working fine the

420
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:57,000
last time. It didn't overflow. From what I
understand, it did not overflow, did it in
June.

421
00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:04,060
>> It did not. It did not physically overflow,
but it was near the top. That was the

422
00:46:04,060 --> 00:46:08,060
wettest part of my my. >> But it did his job.
>> No, it did not, because the

423
00:46:08,060 --> 00:46:14,060
residents had two of their own gas pumps to
empty out into the into the forest.

424
00:46:14,060 --> 00:46:17,060
>> Okay, so let. >> Me pump water out to save
their own houses.

425
00:46:17,060 --> 00:46:22,060
>> So let me get you. We'll call you back.
Mr. We'll get some more information and we'll

426
00:46:22,060 --> 00:46:26,060
get you. Because we were over there the other
day looking at it in the rain. So we'll we'll

427
00:46:26,060 --> 00:46:29,060
get back to you. >> I'd love to visit it with
you.

428
00:46:29,060 --> 00:46:34,060
>> Perfect. Last time I went to visit, I had
been removed, by the way they removed me from

429
00:46:34,060 --> 00:46:39,060
the property. But if I can get permission to
go there, I'd love to go there. Okay, perfect.

430
00:46:39,060 --> 00:46:43,060
Thank you. Thank you. >> Just clarify what
you just said about pumping into the

431
00:46:43,060 --> 00:46:48,060
wetland. Who's pumping into the wetland? Nobody
houses on Nelson or the.

432
00:46:48,060 --> 00:46:55,060
>> No. The residents of prima two during the
June 20th event. Yes. In order to empty the

433
00:46:55,060 --> 00:47:01,020
ditch so that it would not cause catastrophic
event in their townhouses, they pumped

434
00:47:01,020 --> 00:47:11,020
it into the forest with two gasoline generators.
Okay. >> Thank you. We got your

435
00:47:11,020 --> 00:47:21,020
contact information. We'll get back to you.
Thank you. >> Daniel Nishimaru.

436
00:47:21,020 --> 00:47:29,020
>> Good evening. I would like to start. Thank
the the city, Mr. Belvedere, with your

437
00:47:29,020 --> 00:47:34,020
technical expert team as well, including Mr.
Fillon, for the meeting we had on July 28th.

438
00:47:34,020 --> 00:47:40,020
I'm a resident from premature. So in that meeting,
just to. I would like to follow up with

439
00:47:40,020 --> 00:47:46,020
some actions. But just to summarize what we
understood that the city system is not

440
00:47:46,020 --> 00:47:51,020
capable to deal with all the amount of rain
that is being happening in the last five

441
00:47:51,020 --> 00:47:56,020
years. Right. And there is nothing that could
be done in the short term. So you are

442
00:47:56,020 --> 00:48:00,080
working hard on that. But in the short term,
there is not what could be done in order to

443
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:06,080
improve this amount of rain, that the system
seat system can capture from our property.

444
00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:12,080
Right? So it, it shows to us that more than
ever, we need to work together with the city

445
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:17,080
with some solutions. We discuss about that,
some solutions. We are working hard on every

446
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:23,080
single solution we discuss that we can do right.
We are working extremely hard on that and we

447
00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:27,080
will make sure. And one of those things is
the ditch, right? That staff will talk

448
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:32,080
more about that later on, but in that meeting
as well. So we made some quick calculations

449
00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:37,080
with your technical team, what we would be
required to do in our property in order to

450
00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:44,080
capture this 150mm of rain. And our conclusion
is we need half of Olympic pool. And we talk

451
00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:49,080
about millions of liters of waters, which it
was very clear that something impractical to

452
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:54,080
be done in our property. Right? We can look
into the ditch, we can enlarge the ditch, but
by

453
00:48:54,080 --> 00:49:00,040
itself is not sufficient. And in that meeting
there, so the city had one of the actions was

454
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:06,040
to look into the wood that my colleague mentioned,
the forest there to potentially do a

455
00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:11,040
containment pool. Understand, it's not easy,
but we need to keep in mind it's extreme time.

456
00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:16,040
It requires extreme actions. And I know it's
hard. We don't expect anything less from the

457
00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:21,040
city to work as hard as we are doing on our
property. And another thing as well, the

458
00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:27,040
other action. When I talk to Mr. Filion about
the system, the way it works, it's possible

459
00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:32,040
that water is coming from the system into our
property because there is no like one

460
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:37,040
way valve, so maybe there is water coming from
the system and will come back to our

461
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:42,040
property. So even if we could build half of
Olympic pool, which we cannot, we would not

462
00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:47,040
be able to contain all the water from the system.
Right? So something for the city to

463
00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:53,040
look at it. Is it possible to install one way
valve or another type of solution in

464
00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:59,040
order to avoid water from the system city system
come into our property, because there is

465
00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:03,000
no way we can do all of those, right? I understand
the deficiency on the system, on

466
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:08,000
the system. We are ready to work together with
you guys, and I would like to have a

467
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:14,000
feedback, a follow up on those actions. Thank
you. >> Well, I thought we had a

468
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:18,000
great meeting. Thank you very much. It was
cordial, it was professional. And you guys
came

469
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:23,000
with a lot of knowledge and you were made aware.
I think that we did our homework too, and we

470
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:31,000
had the drawings and everything and showed
you. I'm quite confident that. Our our stuff

471
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:36,000
is working, but you have some work to do too.
And it's a joint venture. Right. And that

472
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:40,000
we agreed on and we did talk about your idea
about the retention, using the park for

473
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:45,000
the retention basin, and Mr. Filion said he
would look into. It was a great idea. That
was a

474
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:51,000
week ago. Give us some time. Just like you
guys have to go out and hire a consultant to

475
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:56,000
look at what you can do to. So what you guys
find out that you have to do on your property.

476
00:50:56,000 --> 00:51:00,060
And then we look at what we have already on
our system. We can hopefully resolve the

477
00:51:00,060 --> 00:51:04,060
problem. Right? But in the meantime, it's work
in progress. You have work to do. And we're

478
00:51:04,060 --> 00:51:10,060
going to look at we're going to look at using,
like I said, that park as a as a retention

479
00:51:10,060 --> 00:51:14,060
tank. But you guys have to get your property
evaluated to see what you can do to be more

480
00:51:14,060 --> 00:51:20,060
efficient, to absorb more water. Yes, the ditch
will help the type of, you know, the gardens

481
00:51:20,060 --> 00:51:25,060
are sponge parks, whatever you can do on your
property. I'm not telling you what to do, how

482
00:51:25,060 --> 00:51:30,060
to do it, but you will get an expert that will
will determine what you can do. And then we'll

483
00:51:30,060 --> 00:51:35,060
take it from there. Because you saw in the
plans that the original plan that was drawn
up

484
00:51:35,060 --> 00:51:39,060
by the consultant before the project or when
the project was designed, it had all that in

485
00:51:39,060 --> 00:51:45,060
there. I mean, nobody expected 150mm of rain,
right? So we are adapting to a new reality.
But

486
00:51:45,060 --> 00:51:49,060
again, together we're going to get there, right?
It's not only your project. Everybody in this

487
00:51:49,060 --> 00:51:55,060
room has issues that we have to work together
and find solutions every day. We have to

488
00:51:55,060 --> 00:52:00,020
come up with a new solution, new problem, solve
it and we'll get there. But it's going to

489
00:52:00,020 --> 00:52:05,020
take time. So you do what you have to do. We're
just going to do what we have to do and

490
00:52:05,020 --> 00:52:08,020
hopefully it's going to resolve it. >> So just
to make sure if you

491
00:52:08,020 --> 00:52:13,020
understood, Mr. Mayor, so your team is is working
in order to check what could be done on the

492
00:52:13,020 --> 00:52:15,020
park forest. >> You mentioned. >> That he.

493
00:52:15,020 --> 00:52:19,020
>> Really thought it was a good idea and he
would look into it. >> Right.

494
00:52:19,020 --> 00:52:24,020
>> He said he thought it was a good idea and
he would look into it. Right. So that's.

495
00:52:24,020 --> 00:52:29,020
>> Just to let you know. So we are working
as well on our side as well. As soon as we
have

496
00:52:29,020 --> 00:52:34,020
some proposal, we will need to have another
meeting with the city in order to understand
all

497
00:52:34,020 --> 00:52:37,020
those interfaces. But we will let you know
about it. >> Perfect. That's what we're

498
00:52:37,020 --> 00:52:41,020
waiting for. >> Okay. And another action, maybe
if you can follow up is

499
00:52:41,020 --> 00:52:46,020
to see the system city system. If there is
a way to block the water coming from the city

500
00:52:46,020 --> 00:52:49,020
system coming to our property, we would appreciate.
>> As well. I'll ask that

501
00:52:49,020 --> 00:52:52,020
question, but I don't remember that conversation.
But I'll ask the question.

502
00:52:52,020 --> 00:52:55,020
>> Okay. Perfect. Thank you very much. Okay.
Have a good evening.

503
00:52:55,020 --> 00:53:04,080
>> George Fragedakis. >> Good evening, Mr.
Mayor. >> Good evening.

504
00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:12,080
>> Council members. My issue is road safety.
I've been a resident on Cano Avenue since

505
00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:19,080
October 1st, and it became evident to me that
trucks and commercial vehicles are using

506
00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:28,080
De Cano between Del Mar and Avro to bypass
traffic lights on Hymas and sources. I reached

507
00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:36,080
out to City Councilor Mr. In early January.
I've reached out to police. The police has
come

508
00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:47,080
out a few times, has given many tickets, has
confirmed my concerns. I see 18 wheelers up

509
00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:54,080
to five a day. We talked about a daycare being
right at the corner of Del Mar and de Canal

510
00:53:54,080 --> 00:54:02,040
de Cano has three corridor scolaire signs,
two crosswalks and a stop sign. So I find it

511
00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:08,040
very hard to believe how an 18 Wheeler can
negotiate a crosswalk, two of them, or that

512
00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:15,040
intersection at Del Mar and Cano. I don't know
how they pull that off. So I want action.

513
00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:22,040
I know, I know the expectation of police to
be there on a daily basis is unreasonable.
I

514
00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:30,040
see parading trucks going east, sorry, West
returning back to their hub. Right. They know
Del

515
00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:36,040
Mar service road and back to the plant. Something
has to be done because kids are on their

516
00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:41,040
bikes, kids are on their scooters, kids are
walking to school in a month's time. So my

517
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:48,040
concern is the safety of pedestrians, children.
And I won't talk about speeding

518
00:54:48,040 --> 00:54:53,040
because speeding is is a known issue as well.
But the main one is I cringe every time I see
an

519
00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:58,040
18 Wheeler from my window. >> So I can just
tell you that Mr. Potvin is well aware, has

520
00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:02,000
brought it to our attention many times. We
brought it, we've discussed it, we've

521
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:06,000
brought it to traffic committee. We're looking
at solutions. We're aware of the problem. The

522
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:12,000
police, like you said, have shown up and ticketed
people. Part of it may be is ways we

523
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:16,000
tell the trucks to go that way. To me, it's
the shortest route, whatever. But we're looking
at

524
00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:20,000
it. I don't have the answers solutions right
now as we speak, but we have had this

525
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:25,000
conversation and we will have to get back to
you because I don't remember all the details.

526
00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:28,000
We're still discussing it at the traffic committee,
and our next meeting is only in

527
00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:32,000
September now. But we did come to the table.
>> My understanding is that

528
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:35,000
there'll be signs. >> There's signage. Additional
signage.

529
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:38,000
>> There is no signage at strategic area. >>
There will be additional

530
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:42,000
signage. There's a bunch of stuff that we talked
about. I just don't remember all.

531
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:48,000
>> But I was also told that it's it's a deterrent,
right? It's not. But I think 18

532
00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:52,000
Wheeler is going on. De Cano has to stop. >>
Well, absolutely. We agree

533
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:56,000
with that. It's how. >> Do we do not take.
>> No no no no. We agree that

534
00:55:56,000 --> 00:56:00,060
they shouldn't be there. We absolutely agree.
How do we deter them from turning.

535
00:56:00,060 --> 00:56:03,060
>> That an 18 Wheeler can't see a child. >>
Right.

536
00:56:03,060 --> 00:56:07,060
>> Right from that height. >> Just to clarify,
there's signage that says no trucks

537
00:56:07,060 --> 00:56:14,060
allowed, but they need to be made more evident.
>> Prior to 1818, Wheeler

538
00:56:14,060 --> 00:56:18,060
trucks are not from Pointe-Claire. They're
coming from. And they don't they don't

539
00:56:18,060 --> 00:56:23,060
care on the highway. Why would they care? And
they cannot. >> So we're well aware we

540
00:56:23,060 --> 00:56:27,060
discussed it. We're going to make the signage
more evident, like Mr. Matthews said. And

541
00:56:27,060 --> 00:56:31,060
we'll once. >> The sign young children. Right.
Well, others do. I'm a

542
00:56:31,060 --> 00:56:36,060
concerned citizen. >> And I you know what I
hear you I you know, and it's it's

543
00:56:36,060 --> 00:56:41,060
hard to fix. I mean, they they out of their
own intelligence, they should not be turning
that

544
00:56:41,060 --> 00:56:46,060
right. But it's amazing of saving two minutes,
you know. But thank you. And it's not has

545
00:56:46,060 --> 00:56:52,060
not fallen on deaf ears. >> All right. >> Thank
you. Thank you.

546
00:56:52,060 --> 00:56:57,060
>> The ninth person asked to be removed. So
we'll move on to the next person, Monsieur

547
00:56:57,060 --> 00:57:01,020
Martin Gendron. >> Mr. mayor, I can just make
a comment. Somebody who's

548
00:57:01,020 --> 00:57:07,020
watching at home commented that the people
were speaking are not close enough to the mic,
so

549
00:57:07,020 --> 00:57:12,020
that they're not really able to hear what people
are saying, so fewer people will come up. You

550
00:57:12,020 --> 00:57:17,020
can just try and pull the mic closer to your
mouth so that people can hear you. Thank you.

551
00:57:17,020 --> 00:57:48,020
>> Thank you. >> Mr. Voter administration pour
tous les efforts qu'on

552
00:57:48,020 --> 00:57:55,020
peut voir ce qu'on peut pour voir qui vous
entrepreneurs pour le problem of the climate

553
00:57:55,020 --> 00:58:00,080
change and the floodings. >> We're going to
just adjust the might get it closer to you,

554
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:05,080
please. Voila. Merci beaucoup. >> Okay, I just
hope I was well understood.

555
00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:11,080
>> Yes you were. >> Thank you. There. Martin
Gendron. For the residents

556
00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:21,080
whose properties are affected by Sunnyside's
aqueduct system, the drainage ditches. Have

557
00:58:21,080 --> 00:58:32,080
really. >> You can't get close enough. >> Is
this good? Like this?

558
00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:41,080
Proportion call. Okay, so Martin Gendron, for
the residents whose properties are

559
00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:47,080
affected by Sunnyside's aqueduct system, the
drainage ditches the residents and many

560
00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:55,080
others live in fear. Mr. mayor, in the apprehension
of the next storm to come, bringing

561
00:58:55,080 --> 00:59:03,040
torrential rain and floodings, the hydro will.
The hydro, the electricity hold on through
to

562
00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:11,040
power our pump and our sump pumps in the backyards?
Drainage ditches do not require

563
00:59:11,040 --> 00:59:21,040
electricity. Water has inertia. It follows
gravity. Water will follow the slope of the

564
00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:30,040
drainage ditches. As long as there is a slope.
In the absence of a slope where the

565
00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:41,040
land is landfilled. 107 Sunnyside 110 and 112
Sunnyside. Upstream, water spills out and

566
00:59:41,040 --> 00:59:48,040
fans onto the backyards, and then it proceeds
to the next houses. And then the third. And

567
00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:56,040
on and on. It's unfortunate and unfair. I see
neighbors spending thousands, tens of

568
00:59:56,040 --> 01:00:07,000
thousands, Mr. Mayor. To cope on their own
when the prospect of a solution will be so

569
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:19,000
insular, almost futile. We all pay the same
taxes. Hope. There wasn't hope there was in
the

570
01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:26,000
world of July, hoping for a crew of land surveyors,
hoping for the repair of the down

571
01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:33,000
slope, hoping for the storm before the storm
of August. And that's the storm that's going

572
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:40,000
to come. It's it's invaluable. In August. We
have a terrible storm, so we live in fear and

573
01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:48,000
apprehension. We hope that the hydro will hold
on so we can keep our pumps on. We, the

574
01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:56,000
residents affected by the Sunnyside drainage
ditches cannot be coping with piecemeal

575
01:00:56,000 --> 01:01:04,060
interventions on our own. We are asking this
administration for the repair of the drainage

576
01:01:04,060 --> 01:01:13,060
ditches as a way to encompass all of the backyards.
Thank you, Mr. Mayor.

577
01:01:13,060 --> 01:01:19,060
>> Thank you very much for your comments. Your
questions. We're aware of the situation on

578
01:01:19,060 --> 01:01:27,060
Sunnyside, Cool Breeze, all in that area. We've
held meetings discussing it. It's not clear

579
01:01:27,060 --> 01:01:35,060
cut. You're well informed and some are privately
owned. Some are city owned. Some have been

580
01:01:35,060 --> 01:01:39,060
filled in by residents who have decided to
extend their backyard and filled in the

581
01:01:39,060 --> 01:01:44,060
ditch and put a garden shed on. So these are
all things we're looking at. We know it's like

582
01:01:44,060 --> 01:01:49,060
everything else we're looking at. All this
unfortunately, takes time, lots of work, and.

583
01:01:49,060 --> 01:01:54,060
But again, we're we've got a committee looking
at it and we're trying to find solutions

584
01:01:54,060 --> 01:02:02,020
and how we're going to approach. Even if they
are owned by the city and they're in your

585
01:02:02,020 --> 01:02:06,020
backyard, you actually have a responsibility
to find out, to maintain them to, to make sure

586
01:02:06,020 --> 01:02:12,020
they work. So these are all things we're looking
at, and to come up with a plan that we can

587
01:02:12,020 --> 01:02:16,020
that's going to work for everybody. And there
might be some very happy people. There

588
01:02:16,020 --> 01:02:21,020
might be some very upset people who have to
move a garden shed or dig up a fence or whatever.

589
01:02:21,020 --> 01:02:25,020
But these are all things that we just can't
do overnight. We have to. And that's what we're

590
01:02:25,020 --> 01:02:30,020
we're trying to get there now, trying to recognize
the issues and come up with solutions for

591
01:02:30,020 --> 01:02:35,020
them all. >> We are we are a community together,
Mr. Mayor.

592
01:02:35,020 --> 01:02:40,020
>> Absolutely. >> It's not because somebody
is insular that they're above. No,

593
01:02:40,020 --> 01:02:45,020
the, the, the well-being and the safety of
the community as a whole. Sir.

594
01:02:45,020 --> 01:02:51,020
>> No. And I agree with you, and we know the
importance of solving your problems in your

595
01:02:51,020 --> 01:02:56,020
area. We've been we've been we've already had
two meetings just about that. Okay. So we're

596
01:02:56,020 --> 01:03:01,080
trying to find solutions. And it's, there's
a lot of research to do to find out who owns
them

597
01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:06,080
and what, who, what's on the city property,
what's on the private property. And these are

598
01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:10,080
all things we're identifying. And people will
be getting letters in their mail notifying

599
01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:14,080
them of the situations. >> Thank you, Mr. Mayor.
Thank you.

600
01:03:14,080 --> 01:03:25,080
>> Very much. Thank you. >> Nasser al Dhabi.
>> Good evening.

601
01:03:25,080 --> 01:03:31,080
>> Good evening. Just lowered fray. There you
go. >> We get the flood. For the

602
01:03:31,080 --> 01:03:40,080
last three years, the 24, 25 and 26 and cost
us a lot of money. And every year the

603
01:03:40,080 --> 01:03:47,080
increasing our taxes and our value of the houses
and what's happening is the opposite. So

604
01:03:47,080 --> 01:03:56,080
our soon you're going to have the budget for
26 or the 27. Are you going the increase our

605
01:03:56,080 --> 01:04:00,040
taxes for all water costs. That happened to
us for all the flooding.

606
01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:05,040
>> So I'm going to answer. You know, I know
you complain about the taxes all the time.
Every

607
01:04:05,040 --> 01:04:10,040
time you come to the phone, to the microphone,
don't forget something. Montreal raised our

608
01:04:10,040 --> 01:04:18,040
portion of Montreal by $18 million last year,
$18 million. We're paying Montreal $106

609
01:04:18,040 --> 01:04:26,040
million a year. We're paying them 54% of our
budget, or 56% of our budget goes to Montreal.

610
01:04:26,040 --> 01:04:33,040
So we're managing the city on 44%. Okay. And
all the services we have not cut services.
We're

611
01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:37,040
we're adapting to climate change. We're spending
over $40 million in our capital

612
01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:42,040
expenditures this year to a fixed infrastructure
and help with the the water situation

613
01:04:42,040 --> 01:04:48,040
and get the road surface better. And, and we're
managing it efficiently the best we can.

614
01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:53,040
And we're getting there. But I mean, do we
increase taxes? We are always worried. We're

615
01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:58,040
waiting for Montreal to come out with their
new increase. And November is not far away.

616
01:04:58,040 --> 01:05:03,000
We're all going to find you're going to find
out when we find out. And we rely on Montreal

617
01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:07,000
because we have to pay Montreal. We have no
negotiations with Montreal. This is what they

618
01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:12,000
charge us. We have to pay, and we have to come
up with that money one way or another. So

619
01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:16,000
either we we increase his tax a little bit
to compensate for it. And we maintain our services,

620
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:20,000
or we start cutting services. And we have no
intention of cutting services. And I think

621
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:25,000
for the the amount of money that we, the increase
we've had over the last few years from

622
01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:30,000
Montreal, we have done a heck of a job being
able to keep taxes reasonably low and

623
01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:34,000
maintaining services. >> Yeah, but. >> That's
what we're up against.

624
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:39,000
>> Yeah. But the flood and all what's happened
to us is not our fault, is that it's because

625
01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:42,000
the infrastructure is too old. >> Nobody's
nobody's fault. Mother nature is mother's

626
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:49,000
nature. I'm not going to. You can't blame the
City for 118mm, or 115mm of rain in 30 minutes.

627
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:54,000
You can't blame the city. You can't. We have
to work on this together. So we have we have
to

628
01:05:54,000 --> 01:06:00,060
come to reality. This is this is a reality.
Climate change is here. It's going to happen

629
01:06:00,060 --> 01:06:06,060
again. We cannot dig up every street, change
every pipe. Even the largest pipes would not

630
01:06:06,060 --> 01:06:10,060
accommodate all the water that fell because
the sewers, the top, it can't get in the system

631
01:06:10,060 --> 01:06:16,060
fast enough. So we are trying to come up with
other solutions. We just announced we got $6.8

632
01:06:16,060 --> 01:06:22,060
million, which is just a drop in the bucket,
but it's going to get us 11 projects that will

633
01:06:22,060 --> 01:06:27,060
be able to help mitigate the water situation.
And it's not by putting the water in the

634
01:06:27,060 --> 01:06:31,060
sewer is going to solve the problems by putting
the water in the green spaces, in the

635
01:06:31,060 --> 01:06:35,060
parks, in the retention tanks. That's what's
going to help us. And that's what we're doing.

636
01:06:35,060 --> 01:06:40,060
And I mean, we're working full time at this,
and we're getting the support of the Quebec

637
01:06:40,060 --> 01:06:44,060
government. We're getting the support of a
of our of our employees to put all their

638
01:06:44,060 --> 01:06:48,060
energy into this. So that's where we're at.
>> Yeah, I understand about all

639
01:06:48,060 --> 01:06:53,060
what you're saying, but we have to fight for
the city of Montreal. What they charging us

640
01:06:53,060 --> 01:06:57,060
all this. >> That's another battle. That's
another battle. That's a

641
01:06:57,060 --> 01:07:02,020
completely different battle. And that's. We're
doing that fight. And we're. But that's,

642
01:07:02,020 --> 01:07:06,020
you know, that's a long battle. And that's
going to be with the provincial government
because

643
01:07:06,020 --> 01:07:10,020
they're the only ones that can change it. We're
fighting to get it changed. And the new

644
01:07:10,020 --> 01:07:14,020
mayor of Montreal says that she wants to look
at it and understand it. And because

645
01:07:14,020 --> 01:07:19,020
she's going to come up with her own budget
at this November. So let's see where her let's
see

646
01:07:19,020 --> 01:07:23,020
what she does this November. Okay? Okay. Because
she's been working with us. We've met with

647
01:07:23,020 --> 01:07:26,020
her many times. She's been talking the talk.
Let's see what.

648
01:07:26,020 --> 01:07:31,020
>> Can work with you. Like you can ask us,
we can help you to get all together.

649
01:07:31,020 --> 01:07:33,020
>> I'd love it, but I mean, it's it's. >> It's
you're the leader.

650
01:07:33,020 --> 01:07:40,020
We're supposed to follow you. >> You were 15
minutes parties that that are de-merged. We're

651
01:07:40,020 --> 01:07:45,020
all on the same page. We all represent all
the citizens of the Mercedes, the Mercedes,
all

652
01:07:45,020 --> 01:07:50,020
the mayors. And you don't know what goes on
in the back room. But we're we're we're fighting

653
01:07:50,020 --> 01:07:54,020
with the provincial government. We're fighting
with Montreal. We're trying to explain to them

654
01:07:54,020 --> 01:07:59,020
that we're overpaying. But Montreal, to me
is broke. They need our money. And so they

655
01:07:59,020 --> 01:08:03,080
can't just say, you know what, we're going
to make it right and correct the problem because

656
01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:07,080
they don't have the money. So it's a very tough
game. But Beaconfield is in Montreal

657
01:08:07,080 --> 01:08:12,080
right now. We're all on the same page. Beaconsfield
decided to go on their own. So right

658
01:08:12,080 --> 01:08:16,080
now Montreal cannot talk to us until this court
case is settled. Montreal but behind

659
01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:20,080
the scenes, we're doing all kinds of stuff
and hopefully, look, I can't guarantee

660
01:08:20,080 --> 01:08:24,080
anything. It's been going on for 20 years,
but it's not because we haven't fought the

661
01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:28,080
fight. It's just because there's many other
scenarios behind the scenes that that

662
01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:34,080
keeps on getting in the way. >> Okay, my second
question I asked about, you know, in the

663
01:08:34,080 --> 01:08:41,080
summer, we're breeding all the the fire from
all over Quebec and Canada and the state. So

664
01:08:41,080 --> 01:08:47,080
breeding all the pollution. And in winter,
some people burning wood and palate and we're

665
01:08:47,080 --> 01:08:54,080
breeding all that. So when I ask you, you said
you're working on to stop all that

666
01:08:54,080 --> 01:09:00,040
because that is practicing in 19th century
when there was no electricity. But now there
are

667
01:09:00,040 --> 01:09:07,040
too many solutions. So when are you going to
stop burning pellet and and wood in

668
01:09:07,040 --> 01:09:11,040
Pointe-Claire? There are too many city already.
Stop it. Since a long time, even some

669
01:09:11,040 --> 01:09:20,040
city. They are paying the resident to buy back
the gas and more to pay them to buy

670
01:09:20,040 --> 01:09:25,040
electric. So this they care about the the environment.
So when are we going to stop that?

671
01:09:25,040 --> 01:09:30,040
>> So you're you've been here at every meeting.
You've heard that Eric Storch and Councilor

672
01:09:30,040 --> 01:09:35,040
Tremblay has formed a committee with the legal
department, with urban planning to look at
the

673
01:09:35,040 --> 01:09:40,040
wood stove situation. Pointe-Claire had one
of the most up to date wood stove

674
01:09:40,040 --> 01:09:45,040
bylaw going back many years ago. The other
municipalities who are adopting bylaws for
wood

675
01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:51,040
stoves now are adopting what we already have.
Okay, but we're trying to take it another step,

676
01:09:51,040 --> 01:09:55,040
father. I don't know what Eric and Bruno and
these guys have come up with. I have not seen

677
01:09:55,040 --> 01:09:59,040
the what they what they're going to propose,
but it's coming to our table soon, I

678
01:09:59,040 --> 01:10:03,000
believe, Mr. Storch. Now. >> I think our next
meeting, if I'm not mistaken, the councilor

679
01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:08,000
Bruno, is next week. Right? Exactly. So it
is being looked at. It's been reviewed multiple

680
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:13,000
times. Obviously, I can't disclose what we're.
Discussions are headed, but I

681
01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:17,000
can tell you it's very avant garde. There's
some decisions to be made. But, you know, we

682
01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:22,000
have to catch up and get ahead. It's a question
of how far we go ahead. But it's a concern.

683
01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:27,000
We're all aware of it and it's going to be
addressed. But like anything else, it takes
time.

684
01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:32,000
We have a legal department that has a certain
amount of hours. Do we put flood mitigation

685
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:38,000
bylaws ahead of wood burning? You know, there's
there's it's allocation of resources as well.

686
01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:43,000
So I wished, I think that it would have been
completed a bit sooner. But once again, would

687
01:10:43,000 --> 01:10:48,000
you rather, you know, flood mitigation or,
you know, so it's we're doing our best. But

688
01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:52,000
I firmly believe that September we should have
something. If I'm not mistaken. Councilor

689
01:10:52,000 --> 01:10:58,000
Bruno and September, October, November by November
we you know, we should have something.

690
01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:04,060
Any words to say, Councilor Bruno? >> Yeah.
It's. Yes. Sorry. You

691
01:11:04,060 --> 01:11:12,060
caught me by surprise referring to me as Councilor
Bruno. But it's okay. It's okay. No, no.

692
01:11:12,060 --> 01:11:16,060
So to catch up on what you were thinking. Yes
we were. We're working diligently on this.

693
01:11:16,060 --> 01:11:23,060
We've gone back and forth on a number of occasions
reviewing the bylaws that exist in other

694
01:11:23,060 --> 01:11:29,060
cities, looking at our bylaw, looking at the
science behind it. And I'm optimistic that

695
01:11:29,060 --> 01:11:34,060
we're going to be able to be in a position
to improve our position on on wood stoves.
And

696
01:11:34,060 --> 01:11:38,060
I agree fully this is an issue that we need
to start to have control over. The quality
of

697
01:11:38,060 --> 01:11:46,060
our air is, is, is extremely important. It's
it's an obvious thing to say, but it's clearly

698
01:11:46,060 --> 01:11:52,060
essential to us, especially in the winter,
in the winter months. Sorry, I was letting

699
01:11:52,060 --> 01:11:58,060
you continue, Eric. So I was a little bit behind
the the punch there. Okay, good.

700
01:11:58,060 --> 01:12:03,020
>> So the, the, the summary is we're working
on it. We'll be bringing something to the

701
01:12:03,020 --> 01:12:06,020
public soon. >> Thank you. But because it's
a small minority, really what

702
01:12:06,020 --> 01:12:12,020
they're burning the wood and palate. So if
we're not stopping that, we just, you

703
01:12:12,020 --> 01:12:19,020
know, promoting for the for the small minority
to keep continue. So thank you for your effort.

704
01:12:19,020 --> 01:12:25,020
And I hope we see it next, next month. >> Thank
you. Thank you.

705
01:12:25,020 --> 01:12:37,020
>> Stefan Lorant. Bonjour. >> Good evening.
>> Stephanie. Lorraine, part of

706
01:12:37,020 --> 01:12:44,020
the primary construction on Avenue Mason. I
want to echo Daniel's appreciation, Mr.

707
01:12:44,020 --> 01:12:49,020
Mayor, and to the council, thank you again
for taking the time to meet with us a couple

708
01:12:49,020 --> 01:12:53,020
of weeks ago. Out of your busy schedules, we
know there's a lot going on behind the scenes.

709
01:12:53,020 --> 01:12:57,020
And to take the time, even outside of this
type of environment, is very

710
01:12:57,020 --> 01:13:02,080
appreciated. Following that meeting and your
suggestions, we have actually moved forward

711
01:13:02,080 --> 01:13:10,080
with one first professional evaluation from
Du Bois and was kindly answered last week from

712
01:13:10,080 --> 01:13:14,080
Eco Habitation, who's speaking very positively
about the work you guys are doing together.

713
01:13:14,080 --> 01:13:18,080
They've also committed to visiting our property
and have just recommended that they

714
01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:23,080
finish the work with your team, so that the
evaluation they can give us is fully representative

715
01:13:23,080 --> 01:13:29,080
of all the factors connected to your city.
Obviously, details weren't shared, but it sounds

716
01:13:29,080 --> 01:13:34,080
like there's a lot behind the scenes, and we've
also started to move forward with quotes and

717
01:13:34,080 --> 01:13:39,080
evaluations from different professional excavators
that can offer to help us with the

718
01:13:39,080 --> 01:13:45,080
primary water retention system, which is that
ditch everyone keeps speaking about, which

719
01:13:45,080 --> 01:13:51,080
should promise to help us retain, based on
our most heavy rains, about 50% to 60% of

720
01:13:51,080 --> 01:13:56,080
water that falls in an extreme case scenario,
which is a great start. My question you might
be

721
01:13:56,080 --> 01:14:02,040
able to answer pretty quickly based on your
opening remarks, and that there's a meeting
on

722
01:14:02,040 --> 01:14:07,040
August 25th about the adaptation to the stormwater
subsidy program. I wanted to

723
01:14:07,040 --> 01:14:11,040
follow up and see if there was further discussion
with the council and your legal team

724
01:14:11,040 --> 01:14:18,040
about us being able to apply some of that subsidy
to the co co-owned property outside of

725
01:14:18,040 --> 01:14:25,040
the homes to support those improvements, if
they're deemed, of course, material to helping

726
01:14:25,040 --> 01:14:28,040
reduce flooding impact. >> We've had the discussion
right after your meeting. We've

727
01:14:28,040 --> 01:14:37,040
had the discussion and we're analyzing it.
And on August 25th, we'll have an answer by

728
01:14:37,040 --> 01:14:42,040
then. And if it's favorable or unfavorable,
will be in those changes that are coming up.
But

729
01:14:42,040 --> 01:14:45,040
it's a little bit complicated because it's
co-ownership. But there are certain things
that

730
01:14:45,040 --> 01:14:49,040
you do own. Part of your property is yours
and there's stuff that's going. So that's

731
01:14:49,040 --> 01:14:53,040
what we're looking at. We're just trying to
get a legal get around the legal part of it.

732
01:14:53,040 --> 01:14:57,040
But yeah, we'll get to that by August 25th.
>> Wonderful. So that was my

733
01:14:57,040 --> 01:15:02,000
question tonight is to, to have it considered
to be addressed in that in that reevaluation.

734
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:16,000
So thank you. >> Thank you. >> Stefan Gauguin.

735
01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:24,000
>> I good evening. >> Good evening. Mr. Mayor
and Councilor. I have two questions

736
01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:36,000
tonight. One is about the the water storm management,
financial assistance. It's. I

737
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:45,000
see we see that you you make some modification
for adding the townhouse. I'm in prima one.

738
01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:56,000
So I see prima one, 2 or 3. >> Everybody the
whole family. >> So all project is here. So.

739
01:15:56,000 --> 01:16:04,060
I just want to know because it's only for the
properties, individual properties who can

740
01:16:04,060 --> 01:16:17,060
ask for the the the assistance. In our case
we have a retention basin and and is higher
than

741
01:16:17,060 --> 01:16:29,060
all our garage. All the the entrance for the
basement. And it's so it's overflowing inside

742
01:16:29,060 --> 01:16:36,060
the garage. Is there a way for individual people
to, to do something about that because.

743
01:16:36,060 --> 01:16:40,060
>> Well, so that's what we're looking at. And
that's what we're going to have to clarify.

744
01:16:40,060 --> 01:16:46,060
Hopefully by August 25th, the definition of
what. Because unique condos are unique

745
01:16:46,060 --> 01:16:51,060
because you have cool stuff. Stuff is cool
shared, right? Yeah. It's not only owned by

746
01:16:51,060 --> 01:16:54,060
the. >> No, no, it's the. >> So that's what
we're trying

747
01:16:54,060 --> 01:17:00,020
to clarify and see what. So hopefully by August
25th, we'll have a much clearer definition

748
01:17:00,020 --> 01:17:02,020
of what eligible for and what you're not. >>
Okay.

749
01:17:02,020 --> 01:17:10,020
>> All right. >> And my second question is
about the a bit similar is the

750
01:17:10,020 --> 01:17:21,020
basin of retention has a limited debit to go
out. It takes three days to evacuate.

751
01:17:21,020 --> 01:17:31,020
And as we are higher than the the garage we
are wondering is, is, is that the decrease
of

752
01:17:31,020 --> 01:17:39,020
size of piping at the for evacuation. Is it
normal for three days or is.

753
01:17:39,020 --> 01:17:44,020
>> Why are you asking me? I don't know, I don't
even know the tank that's on your

754
01:17:44,020 --> 01:17:49,020
property. You know, we have to get somebody
to look at it. It's part of your co-ownership,

755
01:17:49,020 --> 01:17:53,020
right? Yeah. So I mean, you should get the
co-ownership to look at it. And just like prima

756
01:17:53,020 --> 01:17:58,020
three hired a specialist to look at their property.
Maybe prima one needs to get on that

757
01:17:58,020 --> 01:18:02,080
bandwagon, have an evaluation of their situation
to. I can't answer that question.

758
01:18:02,080 --> 01:18:11,080
>> No, no, no, I, I just want to to bring the
facts. And we don't know if it's if it's

759
01:18:11,080 --> 01:18:16,080
normal, the size. >> And I don't know, honestly,
you have to talk to your co

760
01:18:16,080 --> 01:18:21,080
ownership there. >> And who should we ask for
for information about that.

761
01:18:21,080 --> 01:18:27,080
>> Talk to prima three over there and she'll
give you the name of a specialist because

762
01:18:27,080 --> 01:18:31,080
they've hired people. So they'll give you a
name of somebody. I mean, I can't give

763
01:18:31,080 --> 01:18:34,080
you a name of anybody could. Okay. >> All right.
Thank you very

764
01:18:34,080 --> 01:18:37,080
much. Thank you. Have a nice evening. >> Bye
bye.

765
01:18:37,080 --> 01:18:43,080
>> Catherine Schwartz. >> Hello. >> Good evening.

766
01:18:43,080 --> 01:18:49,080
>> Hi. I live at 93 Vincent in district three.
It's right behind. So sources run through

767
01:18:49,080 --> 01:18:53,080
our backyard. You know, you know all about
it. And I'm here on behalf of several residents

768
01:18:53,080 --> 01:18:59,080
because we're impacted by the significant vibrations
behind our houses. Do you want me to

769
01:18:59,080 --> 01:19:03,040
read my whole thing, or do. >> You seem to
know. >> All about it.

770
01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:07,040
>> Situation and I don't want to cut you off.
If you want to read.

771
01:19:07,040 --> 01:19:11,040
>> It, go ahead. It's fine aware of it. >>
You know it's worse since.

772
01:19:11,040 --> 01:19:15,040
>> May 25th. Yeah. >> We did an intervention
and it worked for a bit, but now it

773
01:19:15,040 --> 01:19:19,040
didn't work. Now it's not working. No. The
director of Public Works, Mr. Girouard, was

774
01:19:19,040 --> 01:19:23,040
on vacation, so he's not aware. But I did talk
to Director of Public Works, and we have to

775
01:19:23,040 --> 01:19:29,040
look at a bigger project, do a bigger patch.
Yeah, it's a lot more money. Yeah. And we're.

776
01:19:29,040 --> 01:19:33,040
Mr. Gerard just got back from vacation yesterday.
He's going to be informed that we have to

777
01:19:33,040 --> 01:19:38,040
spend a little bit more money next year and
we have to find it. But we we're looking at

778
01:19:38,040 --> 01:19:43,040
what we it's a bigger thing to do it. And,
you know, it doesn't take much a little bump

779
01:19:43,040 --> 01:19:47,040
in the road and the trucks going over it. >>
Oh, I know. It's the manhole

780
01:19:47,040 --> 01:19:52,040
cover specifically. It's like a ramp. And then
they land and then it starts at 4 a.m. and
it

781
01:19:52,040 --> 01:19:56,040
doesn't stop. >> We'll, they're going to go
back and look to see if they

782
01:19:56,040 --> 01:20:00,000
can do anything short term again. But we're
looking at a bigger project for next spring.

783
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:04,000
>> Do you have any hope. >> To give me about?
>> But it's funny because

784
01:20:04,000 --> 01:20:08,000
somebody wrote me and said to me, well, Hampstead
had the same problem. They just solved

785
01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:13,000
it. But it took. And I wrote back, not being
sarcastic but two times that ten years to to

786
01:20:13,000 --> 01:20:16,000
finally get that project done, we're not going
to be ten years. >> Okay.

787
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:21,000
>> We're looking at it now. And if we can do
something short term to get you through to
the

788
01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:25,000
spring, we'll do it. >> Okay, great. >> But
it's a bigger to do,

789
01:20:25,000 --> 01:20:29,000
right? It's a bigger project. >> Yes. And how
will you communicate or should I just.

790
01:20:29,000 --> 01:20:34,000
>> Well, Kelly will get back to you. Yeah.
I mean, we we're all on top of it. We all have
your

791
01:20:34,000 --> 01:20:38,000
emails and yeah, we'll Kelly will be able to
reach out to you.

792
01:20:38,000 --> 01:20:43,000
>> So when we have the details, there's a few
of you on the thread I can respond to, to,
to

793
01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:47,000
that message. If not, if if not everyone's
included, just reach out to me and I'll make
sure

794
01:20:47,000 --> 01:20:49,000
that everyone gets the same message. >> Okay?

795
01:20:49,000 --> 01:20:53,000
>> Okay. >> Thank you so much. >> Excuse me,
Mr. Mayor. If if

796
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:57,000
you don't mind, could you just maybe give us.
>> A summary of what happens?

797
01:20:57,000 --> 01:21:01,060
>> Right. So about two years ago, there was
repaving done on sources just south of Belmont.

798
01:21:01,060 --> 01:21:05,060
When you're heading towards the 20 on the right
bound lane, and it's three patches of pavement,

799
01:21:05,060 --> 01:21:09,060
but they aren't even with the rest of the surface.
And because of the heavy road

800
01:21:09,060 --> 01:21:14,060
traffic and the trucks that come from the industrial
sector, they bounce on that. They land

801
01:21:14,060 --> 01:21:19,060
on a manhole, they take off and they bounce
back down onto the ground, behind our houses,
and

802
01:21:19,060 --> 01:21:24,060
the dishes rattle and the house shakes, and
you feel it like a like an earthquake. And
it

803
01:21:24,060 --> 01:21:28,060
starts at four in the morning and it doesn't
stop till the truck stop. But sometimes they

804
01:21:28,060 --> 01:21:35,060
keep going at night. And so it's very stressful,
like just as a human. And then and it's

805
01:21:35,060 --> 01:21:40,060
been about two years and we've and there was
repaving done when PA opened on Donegani, the

806
01:21:40,060 --> 01:21:45,060
whole like kind of section, they tried to redo
it, but they just added more patches. So

807
01:21:45,060 --> 01:21:51,060
it's just more fun bumps for the big trucks
to slam onto. >> All right.

808
01:21:51,060 --> 01:21:56,060
>> Thank you. Yeah. >> Thank you so much. >>
Thank you Lorraine.

809
01:21:56,060 --> 01:22:08,020
>> So. >> Hello. >> I have a question. Just
one.

810
01:22:08,020 --> 01:22:14,020
I know I went through all the criteria about
trying to apply for any help for the money
that

811
01:22:14,020 --> 01:22:21,020
you have for the flooding victims. Problem
is I've done most of the work. Is there any

812
01:22:21,020 --> 01:22:26,020
chance that there's going to be monies down
the road for to repay? Well, to help us pay

813
01:22:26,020 --> 01:22:31,020
because I mean, we have to put we put loans
out, we've got line of credit being used, but

814
01:22:31,020 --> 01:22:36,020
we had to be proactive. We had to take care
of our house. We couldn't wait to see if there

815
01:22:36,020 --> 01:22:39,020
was going to be money. Any chance. >> Well,
right now, if I'm

816
01:22:39,020 --> 01:22:44,020
going to be honest with you, the answer is
no. I don't like to give you that answer. But

817
01:22:44,020 --> 01:22:48,020
that's what I was discussing. We had to we
had to have a start date. And, you know, I

818
01:22:48,020 --> 01:22:53,020
mean, we had the first storm back in 2024,
August 9th, 2020. We're going to go back to
then.

819
01:22:53,020 --> 01:22:57,020
It's not really we can't do it. It's very complicated
legally and everything. So the answer

820
01:22:57,020 --> 01:23:03,080
is no. >> So the only people who are going
to get money is the

821
01:23:03,080 --> 01:23:07,080
people who didn't do any work on their house.
Is that. >> Well, the people that didn't

822
01:23:07,080 --> 01:23:12,080
do any work, people looking forward to have
their house evaluated and see what they can

823
01:23:12,080 --> 01:23:16,080
do in case down the road. Yeah. Well, that's.
>> That's what we already did.

824
01:23:16,080 --> 01:23:21,080
>> But I don't know. I mean, I'm being very
blunt in saying no, no, it's has come up around

825
01:23:21,080 --> 01:23:25,080
this table many times. I don't want to get
any more specific, but right now no, with

826
01:23:25,080 --> 01:23:32,080
something change, I. >> So if I want to say
do some more work on my house, put

827
01:23:32,080 --> 01:23:38,080
something in the yard or whatever that would
be eligible, but my sump pump, my electrical

828
01:23:38,080 --> 01:23:43,080
panel to take care of the sump pump and all
these other things that I'm out of pocket.

829
01:23:43,080 --> 01:23:46,080
>> What year did you do that in? Just out of
curiosity. >> This year.

830
01:23:46,080 --> 01:23:49,080
>> This year when? >> This year. April. >>
Okay.

831
01:23:49,080 --> 01:23:54,080
>> Because we did. We were expecting another
flood this summer. And gee golly, it

832
01:23:54,080 --> 01:23:57,080
happened. >> There you go. And we did it work.
Did all your

833
01:23:57,080 --> 01:24:00,040
interventions work? >> It almost. >> Oh.

834
01:24:00,040 --> 01:24:05,040
>> We still have a bit. And I spoke to the
plumber and he did say that. I asked, do I
need

835
01:24:05,040 --> 01:24:12,040
two pumps? And he says, no. So we're, we're
working on that. So if I have to pay for an

836
01:24:12,040 --> 01:24:17,040
adjustment, like they said, lower the level
that the pump clicks on. Yeah. And might be

837
01:24:17,040 --> 01:24:22,040
able to click on before it starts coming in.
We're going to try that. So I could charge

838
01:24:22,040 --> 01:24:26,040
you for that. Is that it? >> Yeah, exactly.
Exactly. >> Okay.

839
01:24:26,040 --> 01:24:30,040
>> Thank you. Sorry. But yeah. >> Don't worry.
I'm going to keep bugging Kelly.

840
01:24:30,040 --> 01:24:41,040
>> Okay. Keep bugging you. Thank you. >> Ken
Lyons.

841
01:24:41,040 --> 01:24:53,040
>> I think he left. I saw Mr. Lyons leave.
>> Genevieve Lucier.

842
01:24:53,040 --> 01:25:04,000
>> Good night everybody. I have two quick questions.
De. Possible de faire comme une

843
01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:10,000
demolition ou de la construction qu'elle soit
affiché devant les maisons

844
01:25:10,000 --> 01:25:19,000
parce qu'ils ont c'est pour pour une fois,
la seule la de les gens qui ont un permis

845
01:25:19,000 --> 01:25:27,000
possible de faire des permis de voir la maison
des permis de qui sont émis juste pour

846
01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:35,000
faciliter les la reconnaissance des raisons
de savoir. Si les ont permis de. La deuxieme

847
01:25:35,000 --> 01:25:46,000
question. C'est pas pour ou sante et de ses
claims. So bike paths just wondering if the

848
01:25:46,000 --> 01:25:52,000
reflection of the 40 over Saint John's, over
the 40 is going to be redone any time soon,

849
01:25:52,000 --> 01:25:57,000
because I had the pleasure of going over there
today and it was not enjoyable. I know, Mr.

850
01:25:57,000 --> 01:26:03,060
Tremblay said. It's easy to get over to the
40 over the 40, but it was not very pleasant
today

851
01:26:03,060 --> 01:26:08,060
when we tried to go over there on our bike.
So I was just wondering if there's a timeline

852
01:26:08,060 --> 01:26:13,060
for the reflection and bike path over the 40.
>> Well, the existing overpass,

853
01:26:13,060 --> 01:26:18,060
the Saint John's overpass right now will be
redone in April, starting in April, May next

854
01:26:18,060 --> 01:26:24,060
year. Okay. And there'll be, it's a big word,
an integrated protected bike path on one side

855
01:26:24,060 --> 01:26:28,060
with a cement wall, but it's not. And if you're
talking about the passerelle, the

856
01:26:28,060 --> 01:26:32,060
independent passerelle that's off the table
right now. >> I heard about that being off

857
01:26:32,060 --> 01:26:35,060
the table. And I was actually just talking
about Saint Jean to.

858
01:26:35,060 --> 01:26:39,060
>> Saint John's will be redone starting in
the spring of next year. We're just signing
the

859
01:26:39,060 --> 01:26:42,060
agreements with the Minister of Transport.
Okay. They're responsible for portion. We're

860
01:26:42,060 --> 01:26:47,060
responsible for a portion. But yeah, it needs
to be redone. We redid the asphalt on the other

861
01:26:47,060 --> 01:26:52,060
side on the north side of it, and then the
overpass will get done, and we're gonna do
some

862
01:26:52,060 --> 01:26:56,060
work on the south side of it. >> Okay, that's
good news about April. I think it'll really

863
01:26:56,060 --> 01:26:59,060
help to increase the connectivity between.
>> I say, April, May bike paths

864
01:26:59,060 --> 01:27:02,020
in the spring. Let's call it the spring. >>
Okay.

865
01:27:02,020 --> 01:27:05,020
>> Okay. >> Well, hopefully it'll all kind
of join into future bike

866
01:27:05,020 --> 01:27:09,020
paths and include the tumbler and the bike
paths towards the Grand Park and all that.
That

867
01:27:09,020 --> 01:27:13,020
would be really wonderful about the tree felling.
I don't know if that could be.

868
01:27:13,020 --> 01:27:18,020
>> I mean, permits are supposed to be present
in a window. When you give you a permit, it's

869
01:27:18,020 --> 01:27:21,020
supposed to be visible. Yes. So I mean. >>
But I don't.

870
01:27:21,020 --> 01:27:26,020
>> Know if we maybe we should put a note, which
I'm sure it says on it, make it visible.

871
01:27:26,020 --> 01:27:31,020
But maybe when people pick up their permits,
we send them out. We make a note saying that
this

872
01:27:31,020 --> 01:27:34,020
please make sure it's visible. But that's the
rules. They're supposed to be okay.

873
01:27:34,020 --> 01:27:37,020
>> So there are permits given out like a construction
permit for.

874
01:27:37,020 --> 01:27:40,020
>> Tree felling, right? >> Okay. I've never
applied for one.

875
01:27:40,020 --> 01:27:49,020
>> For the tree permit. >> Permit construction
avec la la Baton Rouge, la. Je suis

876
01:27:49,020 --> 01:27:55,020
vraiment. >> Okay. >> In 2018, 2019, when we

877
01:27:55,020 --> 01:27:59,020
changed the law about the permits, you were
the whole idea was to facilitate it so

878
01:27:59,020 --> 01:28:04,080
that they didn't tie up city services. But
yeah, you were supposed to print your permit

879
01:28:04,080 --> 01:28:09,080
back then. Maybe they've changed it now. So
I don't know. We'll look into it. It's a.

880
01:28:09,080 --> 01:28:13,080
>> Good point. Yeah. You know, was concerned
I it would be great if it makes it so

881
01:28:13,080 --> 01:28:17,080
residents would know and not waste anybody's
time for come and check or whatever. Yeah.

882
01:28:17,080 --> 01:28:21,080
Okay. Thank you very much. >> Thank you, Mr.
Mayor. Just one comment, just for the

883
01:28:21,080 --> 01:28:27,080
record, Miss Lucy. Crossing Saint John's overpass
is indeed quite difficult. And for the

884
01:28:27,080 --> 01:28:33,080
record, I've never said it was an easy task.
And having had to do it on a number of occasions,

885
01:28:33,080 --> 01:28:37,080
you just need to be extremely careful. Yeah.
>> And we shouldn't have to be

886
01:28:37,080 --> 01:28:41,080
so careful, is what I'm saying. It should be
an easy process and encourage people to use

887
01:28:41,080 --> 01:28:45,080
their bikes and. Should indeed. It's it's a
scary process. I was there with my daughter

888
01:28:45,080 --> 01:28:50,080
today and it was like, okay, go, go, you know,
run, go. So it was tricky.

889
01:28:50,080 --> 01:28:55,080
>> Yeah. Okay. Not easy. >> Not easy. Yeah.
>> Thank you.

890
01:28:55,080 --> 01:29:06,040
>> Kim Liberge. >> Good evening, Mister mayor
and Council. Three quick

891
01:29:06,040 --> 01:29:15,040
questions about the flood. Thank you. When
will the investigation for Hymas and

892
01:29:15,040 --> 01:29:21,040
Winthrop area be available? >> The board retention
tank? Yeah, I don't know. I don't

893
01:29:21,040 --> 01:29:26,040
know where we're at. I mean, I'm sorry. Mr.
Gerard just got back, and I don't even know
if

894
01:29:26,040 --> 01:29:31,040
he's aware. Are you aware? >> I don't have
the deadline date. No. I can get back to her,

895
01:29:31,040 --> 01:29:33,040
though. >> We can get back to you, though.

896
01:29:33,040 --> 01:29:36,040
>> Excellent. >> Thank you. Is there a schedule
for maintenance for

897
01:29:36,040 --> 01:29:39,040
all of the storm water and sewers? >> There
is, but there's going

898
01:29:39,040 --> 01:29:46,040
to be a much more rigorous one now. And we're
coming up with that plan as we speak. Once
we

899
01:29:46,040 --> 01:29:50,040
identify the areas that are really bad, there'll
be a priority list, and then

900
01:29:50,040 --> 01:29:55,040
there'll be a regular maintenance schedule
coming up. >> So there isn't one now. Just

901
01:29:55,040 --> 01:29:59,040
now. >> But there is one now. But it's not,
let's say frequent

902
01:29:59,040 --> 01:30:05,000
enough. It takes too long to do it all. So
we're we're finding a way to get it done more
often,

903
01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:08,000
sooner. >> I understand that in the future
you'd like that to

904
01:30:08,000 --> 01:30:12,000
change, but currently, what is it now? >> Now
it's what's the one?

905
01:30:12,000 --> 01:30:16,000
>> The cycle is between 3 to 4 years. 3 to
4 years. >> 3 to 4 years.

906
01:30:16,000 --> 01:30:19,000
>> Yeah. >> Just a comment on that. >> Yeah.

907
01:30:19,000 --> 01:30:25,000
>> So I have approached the city to find out
what the maintenance was on Hymas.

908
01:30:25,000 --> 01:30:29,000
>> Yeah. >> And I've been told that there has
been nothing since

909
01:30:29,000 --> 01:30:35,000
2019. That's a little long. >> Absolutely.
That's why we asked for an investigation to

910
01:30:35,000 --> 01:30:39,000
check into what's going on there. So you're
right. I mean, I can't comment, I don't know.

911
01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:44,000
I've been here since November. So we'll find
out. >> Okay. And last question will

912
01:30:44,000 --> 01:30:49,000
the wood chips are they scheduled to be removed
or is that something that everyone's

913
01:30:49,000 --> 01:30:54,000
looking at or it's not a big deal. >> Well,
it is a big deal. And

914
01:30:54,000 --> 01:30:58,000
as you saw what happened on Hymas and on Del
Mar, and we saw them floating and blocking

915
01:30:58,000 --> 01:31:04,060
sewer. So it is a big deal. It has its pros
and cons again, right? It's really good for
the

916
01:31:04,060 --> 01:31:09,060
gardens and the flowers and the vegetation.
And then now we have a problem. So it's not

917
01:31:09,060 --> 01:31:13,060
we've been talking about it what the solution
is. I can't tell you right now either, but

918
01:31:13,060 --> 01:31:19,060
it's part of our, our. What do you call it
ongoing. We're looking at it. We're we're

919
01:31:19,060 --> 01:31:24,060
we're discussing it. Yeah. Very well. All right.
Thank you. Thank you.

920
01:31:24,060 --> 01:31:39,060
>> Jose amorosa. >> Good evening. >> Good evening.

921
01:31:39,060 --> 01:31:46,060
>> I would like to thank Councilor Stalk and
Councilor Potvin for taking their time

922
01:31:46,060 --> 01:31:53,060
and organizing the meeting for the residents
of district seven and eight. Thank you. So
like

923
01:31:53,060 --> 01:31:59,060
many other of my neighbors, I'm looking at
putting in a sump pump as soon as possible.
My

924
01:31:59,060 --> 01:32:03,020
understanding is that the current bylaw requires
sump pumps to be connected to the

925
01:32:03,020 --> 01:32:09,020
city. However, at the last meeting, Mr. Mayor,
you had said you were looking at

926
01:32:09,020 --> 01:32:16,020
changing that and actually having people disconnect.
The city of Dorval, city of

927
01:32:16,020 --> 01:32:22,020
Beaconsfield, don't require the sorry, the
residents to connect to the city. I've spoken
to

928
01:32:22,020 --> 01:32:29,020
multiple experts, multiple. I've had people
coming to my house and all their

929
01:32:29,020 --> 01:32:35,020
professional recommendations seem to be not
to connect to the city system because if the

930
01:32:35,020 --> 01:32:42,020
city is overloaded, which. The corner of my
street of Winthrop and Sunderland now floods

931
01:32:42,020 --> 01:32:49,020
regularly and quickly, all that water would
back, back up, back into my house or my water
or my

932
01:32:49,020 --> 01:32:55,020
water would have nowhere to go from the sump
pump. It makes no sense for me to connect my
sump

933
01:32:55,020 --> 01:33:01,080
pump to a system that's already overloaded.
Even if I have a secondary discharge tube,
that

934
01:33:01,080 --> 01:33:07,080
would mean that I need some sort of backflow
valve on my sump pump to make sure that

935
01:33:07,080 --> 01:33:17,080
water doesn't back up into my house, and the
secondary way second back up goes back up and

936
01:33:17,080 --> 01:33:23,080
out the secondary way and not back into my
house. Has the city or when will the city make

937
01:33:23,080 --> 01:33:30,080
a decision about having its residents connect
to the system that has failed multiple times?

938
01:33:30,080 --> 01:33:35,080
We need an answer now. We want to put in our
sump pumps now. We don't want to wait till

939
01:33:35,080 --> 01:33:42,080
November to know what has to be done. That's
my first. >> I can't give you that answer

940
01:33:42,080 --> 01:33:47,080
now. I can just tell you it's we're this is
a bylaw that's in place right now in order
to

941
01:33:47,080 --> 01:33:51,080
change a bylaw, there's a process. And that's
what we're looking at. Are we going to

942
01:33:51,080 --> 01:33:55,080
change it? And then we have to go through the
process if that's the case. But I mean

943
01:33:55,080 --> 01:34:01,040
we're we meet every day about this stuff. So
I know it all seems long, I get it. But it

944
01:34:01,040 --> 01:34:06,040
takes time and we're working as fast as we
can to solve these little issues or give you
a

945
01:34:06,040 --> 01:34:11,040
clear direction. So yes, you'll have an answer,
but I can't give it to you now.

946
01:34:11,040 --> 01:34:16,040
>> So all the residents that were connected
with their sump pumps to the city and were
all

947
01:34:16,040 --> 01:34:23,040
flooded in June, like, that's a negligence
on the city that they had their residents

948
01:34:23,040 --> 01:34:27,040
connect to the system, and then they got water
back into their house.

949
01:34:27,040 --> 01:34:31,040
>> Well, it's not I'm not going to I don't
think I can comment because now you're talking

950
01:34:31,040 --> 01:34:35,040
legal Durban here, but I don't I think it's
worked for many, many, many, many years. There's

951
01:34:35,040 --> 01:34:39,040
no issue now you get 150mm of rain, which is
unpredictable, no different than a hurricane

952
01:34:39,040 --> 01:34:44,040
that comes through and your trees and everything
are set for, you know, 80 mile an hour

953
01:34:44,040 --> 01:34:48,040
winds and everything gets taken away. And are
we dead? No, it's Mother nature, unfortunately.

954
01:34:48,040 --> 01:34:54,040
Same thing with the flooding. So we're we as
a as a city are trying to adopt the new reality.

955
01:34:54,040 --> 01:34:58,040
And that's why we're discussing not connecting
you to it. But nobody could predict what

956
01:34:58,040 --> 01:35:03,000
happened. Right. >> So why why are you making
not making a decision?

957
01:35:03,000 --> 01:35:07,000
>> Oh, it's not that we're. >> Not. >> It's
not. Just because we

958
01:35:07,000 --> 01:35:11,000
have to get part of the building code as part
of a bylaw. There's certain rules we

959
01:35:11,000 --> 01:35:17,000
have to amend in order to. And that's what
we have to look at. That's all. It's just it's
just

960
01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:21,000
there's so many things, you know, just writing
this bylaw to get you. The money was only

961
01:35:21,000 --> 01:35:26,000
supposed to be done September, October. We
dropped everything so that in July 8th we could

962
01:35:26,000 --> 01:35:30,000
pass at that meeting. If not, it would have
gone to the fall. So like somebody said, Eric

963
01:35:30,000 --> 01:35:34,000
said the legal department, they're only so
big, they can only do so much. Everything is

964
01:35:34,000 --> 01:35:39,000
a priority. And this became a priority. We're
trying to get through it as fast as we can.

965
01:35:39,000 --> 01:35:43,000
So I know you don't want to hear it, but please
be patient and believe us, we're working

966
01:35:43,000 --> 01:35:47,000
on it. >> But we all have trauma from the flooding.

967
01:35:47,000 --> 01:35:50,000
>> So we all. >> Want to get it done as soon
as possible.

968
01:35:50,000 --> 01:35:53,000
>> I hear you, I hear you. >> Okay. >> Please.

969
01:35:53,000 --> 01:35:59,000
>> I would just say one thing. Please be like
not connecting to the storm at all can also

970
01:35:59,000 --> 01:36:06,060
lead to other problems. Because if you over
saturate your yard without any retention basin

971
01:36:06,060 --> 01:36:13,060
plan, you could be circulating the same water
you're pumping out back into your French drain,

972
01:36:13,060 --> 01:36:18,060
into your sump pump. Your sump pump will be
overwhelmed anyways regardless, and you

973
01:36:18,060 --> 01:36:24,060
will flood your basement. >> Only because we're
in an area that the sewer, the the

974
01:36:24,060 --> 01:36:32,060
systems are always like blocked, fully blocked.
My second item is reiterating the previous

975
01:36:32,060 --> 01:36:38,060
resident regarding the flooding that's happened.
That happens on Winthrop and Delmar, as well

976
01:36:38,060 --> 01:36:43,060
as the retention basins on Hymas. What is being
done? Who's looking into it? If

977
01:36:43,060 --> 01:36:50,060
there's an issue? And is there an independent
company that's doing the review? What are they

978
01:36:50,060 --> 01:36:56,060
looking at? What's the timeline and how do
we find out as citizen? What's happening with

979
01:36:56,060 --> 01:37:01,020
that? >> Our engineering department is looking
at the situation as

980
01:37:01,020 --> 01:37:05,020
we speak with our professionals, and as soon
as we get the findings, they'll be

981
01:37:05,020 --> 01:37:10,020
communicated to City council. Then after that,
information can be provided through access

982
01:37:10,020 --> 01:37:15,020
to information. But we want to have the the
findings yet. >> So as the residents of zone

983
01:37:15,020 --> 01:37:21,020
seven and eight, there's no way for us to get
that information. >> The legal route to get
that

984
01:37:21,020 --> 01:37:28,020
information is through access to information.
Once we receive it via our own professionals

985
01:37:28,020 --> 01:37:31,020
for citizens. It's just it's just the legal
US administrative, legal.

986
01:37:31,020 --> 01:37:38,020
>> So we have to make that request to get that
information correct. Okay. Last question.

987
01:37:38,020 --> 01:37:44,020
The work that was done at Northview Park was
that it was a couple of years back. Was

988
01:37:44,020 --> 01:37:53,020
that considered as a retention basin or was
the drainage connected to our system when

989
01:37:53,020 --> 01:37:57,020
they redid that park? Is there any way of finding
out this information?

990
01:37:57,020 --> 01:38:02,080
>> I don't have I we can get that information.
I don't know, it wasn't part of that project,

991
01:38:02,080 --> 01:38:06,080
but have you asked the question, Eric? >> Yeah.
And the same, in the

992
01:38:06,080 --> 01:38:12,080
same context was asked as well, like we mentioned
in previously, that when industrial,

993
01:38:12,080 --> 01:38:18,080
residential or commercial buildings are built,
they're required to have storage basins

994
01:38:18,080 --> 01:38:23,080
scheduled runoff, limited runoff. The question
was that was asked, was that school

995
01:38:23,080 --> 01:38:28,080
under the same, you know, conditions that a
municipality, if we were to build a building,

996
01:38:28,080 --> 01:38:34,080
both. Oh, Northview Park itself. Oh, sorry.
I thought we meant call Saint Louis. I apologize.

997
01:38:34,080 --> 01:38:37,080
>> Northview Park. >> I apologize. >> We'll
get to the we'll have

998
01:38:37,080 --> 01:38:40,080
to get back to you because I don't I don't
have that information.

999
01:38:40,080 --> 01:38:42,080
>> Okay. >> All right. >> Thank you.

1000
01:38:42,080 --> 01:38:46,080
>> Thank you. >> Mr. Mayor. We have one person
that was added on to the

1001
01:38:46,080 --> 01:38:53,080
list for residents. It's Janice Gadbois. >>
Janice.

1002
01:38:53,080 --> 01:38:59,080
>> Good evening, mayor and councilors. I would
just like to ask a question. I back on my

1003
01:38:59,080 --> 01:39:06,040
house, backs on to the paprika building, which
is on Saint John. Yeah, I've noticed

1004
01:39:06,040 --> 01:39:11,040
recently that it doesn't seem to be any activity
there. It looks like it's empty. So I was

1005
01:39:11,040 --> 01:39:16,040
wondering what is is this is it going to be
zoned residential or what is going to happen

1006
01:39:16,040 --> 01:39:20,040
there? >> It is empty. I believe they've sold
and it's on what

1007
01:39:20,040 --> 01:39:26,040
the zoning on, I forget now. It's a mixed use
over there. The old building residential. I

1008
01:39:26,040 --> 01:39:35,040
forget what the zoning is. And I don't know
what the zoning is, but it is zoned for residential

1009
01:39:35,040 --> 01:39:39,040
for sure. >> Because what I would like to know
is, would you know what

1010
01:39:39,040 --> 01:39:41,040
it's going to be built there? You know, you.
>> Know.

1011
01:39:41,040 --> 01:39:44,040
>> Not yet. >> No. >> Because right now, when,
you

1012
01:39:44,040 --> 01:39:50,040
know, when I look out of my I live in a raised
bungalow. So I have a view of the, you know,

1013
01:39:50,040 --> 01:39:54,040
the, the saint. Well, I don't really see Saint
John's, but I see a lot of green. I see the

1014
01:39:54,040 --> 01:40:00,000
trees. And I often think if you're going to
build more condos, then I'm going to look

1015
01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:07,000
at ten storey condos. And I was thinking maybe
we could keep something, say 4 or 5, you know,

1016
01:40:07,000 --> 01:40:12,000
in five stories. >> So absolutely, I, I don't
know what the zoning is on

1017
01:40:12,000 --> 01:40:17,000
there right now, but I don't we'll have to
see when the project gets presented or we'll

1018
01:40:17,000 --> 01:40:24,000
get back to you with what the zoning is, but
it's it's own residential. Yeah. And it's at

1019
01:40:24,000 --> 01:40:30,000
that, what happens in those type of projects
that whoever ends up buying or who's bought

1020
01:40:30,000 --> 01:40:35,000
it will present a project to the city within
our guidelines, and then we'll take it from

1021
01:40:35,000 --> 01:40:39,000
there. But I don't know what the guidelines
are at the top of my head.

1022
01:40:39,000 --> 01:40:43,000
>> Well, that's what I thought. When they present
you, they're, you know, they're constructive,

1023
01:40:43,000 --> 01:40:47,000
what they want to build. Is there any way that
you could say, look, we would like to

1024
01:40:47,000 --> 01:40:51,000
keep it low? Yeah. >> Not so. >> We can. It's
a negotiation

1025
01:40:51,000 --> 01:40:54,000
thing. There are some certain criteria. They
have to meet densification numbers. So many

1026
01:40:54,000 --> 01:40:58,000
doors per square per square hectare, so on
and so forth. But there's there's all kinds

1027
01:40:58,000 --> 01:41:03,060
of. And this has nothing to do with us. It
goes through what is called the Park committee.

1028
01:41:03,060 --> 01:41:07,060
So when they when they come, when a plan or
a project gets presented to the city, they

1029
01:41:07,060 --> 01:41:11,060
come to urban planning, they meet with urban
planning, they sit with urban planning to make

1030
01:41:11,060 --> 01:41:15,060
sure that they match all the criteria of what's
allowed to go there. And then they

1031
01:41:15,060 --> 01:41:20,060
negotiate back and forth to get to where they're
supposed to be. And then from there, urban

1032
01:41:20,060 --> 01:41:23,060
planning gives it to the park committee, which
is the committee that's made up of

1033
01:41:23,060 --> 01:41:27,060
residents, eight residents. I remember eight
residents, which Kelly Kelly is the president
of

1034
01:41:27,060 --> 01:41:33,060
that committee. And then they discuss it along
with one councilor or two councilors and

1035
01:41:33,060 --> 01:41:38,060
some other people gets discussed. And then
after it gets to where they think it

1036
01:41:38,060 --> 01:41:43,060
should be or not be, they bring it to the city
council. That's when we find out about it.
With

1037
01:41:43,060 --> 01:41:48,060
the recommendations or suggestions to approve,
refuse or whatever. So we're the last

1038
01:41:48,060 --> 01:41:52,060
ones to see it. >> Yeah. Now, the other thing
is, is it's a safety issue. I

1039
01:41:52,060 --> 01:41:57,060
live on Concord Crescent and I don't know if
you are aware there's like a path where the

1040
01:41:57,060 --> 01:42:03,020
bicycles go through. Now, Mr. Stork, you installed
a barrier. Yeah, but they still come

1041
01:42:03,020 --> 01:42:09,020
zooming out on their bicycles. They need to
have a barrier, almost like in the village
of

1042
01:42:09,020 --> 01:42:12,020
Pointe Claire. >> Like that barrier? >> Yeah,
because all the

1043
01:42:12,020 --> 01:42:17,020
neighbors. Now we're all aware that the cyclists
just come zooming out. So we.

1044
01:42:17,020 --> 01:42:21,020
>> All have one of those. Yeah, double things.
So actually that we're going to make that part

1045
01:42:21,020 --> 01:42:26,020
of all our new bike paths like that. We're
going to make it part of the new plan all the

1046
01:42:26,020 --> 01:42:30,020
time. So we'll take note of it. And it will
be noted in the minutes and we'll.

1047
01:42:30,020 --> 01:42:34,020
>> Look into it. Thank you very much. Thank
you. >> Thank you.

1048
01:42:34,020 --> 01:42:38,020
>> Just want to state that the current zoning
for that property is for ten stories of

1049
01:42:38,020 --> 01:42:42,020
residential doesn't imply that I agree with
it. But that's what the current zoning is.

1050
01:42:42,020 --> 01:42:48,020
>> I think my up to ten stories maybe. >> Yeah.

1051
01:42:48,020 --> 01:42:56,020
>> Okay. Up to ten stories. That's up to the
urban blank up to. But I don't know. All right.

1052
01:42:56,020 --> 01:42:59,020
>> I just would like to clear. There's absolutely
no commitment at the moment for

1053
01:42:59,020 --> 01:43:04,080
any ten stories. I just want to make sure that
that's very clearly understood. Okay.

1054
01:43:04,080 --> 01:43:11,080
There's no commitment to any height level at
that site at this moment by council.

1055
01:43:11,080 --> 01:43:25,080
>> All right. >> George Panchik. >> Thank you
for permitting me

1056
01:43:25,080 --> 01:43:35,080
to be here. I'm not a citizen of Pointe Claire.
I'm a retired paprika or FP employee. And

1057
01:43:35,080 --> 01:43:43,080
while I was there, I planted trees. At the
back of the property. And I had some people

1058
01:43:43,080 --> 01:43:52,080
plant trees on the front lawn. Also, I'm asking
Pointe Claire to what can you do to protect

1059
01:43:52,080 --> 01:44:02,040
those trees? And there's also some marshland
at the back property. Is that going to be

1060
01:44:02,040 --> 01:44:09,040
retained? We we need trees. >> Yeah, absolutely.
>> I personally planted the

1061
01:44:09,040 --> 01:44:19,040
ones at the back. They're mature trees, but
there's trees on the front lawn, which can
be

1062
01:44:19,040 --> 01:44:28,040
transplanted. I did get involved with the Great
Kayak Canoe Club in Pointe Claire,

1063
01:44:28,040 --> 01:44:41,040
and we did transfer trees. So there is possibilities
and I'd like when FP disappears that

1064
01:44:41,040 --> 01:44:51,040
those trees are maintained and still on the
property. Perfect. Thank you very much for

1065
01:44:51,040 --> 01:45:01,000
listening to me. >> Thank you. All right. We'll
go to the agenda, please.

1066
01:45:01,000 --> 01:45:06,000
>> 5.1 adoption of a bylaw amending bylaw PC2748
to reduce the amount of the working fund.

1067
01:45:06,000 --> 01:45:11,000
This bylaw aims to adjust the working fund
level based on its utilization, while maintaining

1068
01:45:11,000 --> 01:45:15,000
sufficient buffer to meet the municipality's
needs. Consequently, the working fund

1069
01:45:15,000 --> 01:45:26,000
is being reduced from $7,008,000 to $8,000
