Mont-Tremblant

The Council discussed and adopted a regulation establishing tax rates, acknowledged monthly management and human resources reports, and approved the hiring of various staff members. A collective bargaining agreement was approved to support work culture, and salary structure adjustments were authorized for management and non-management staff. The council handled financial matters, including accounts payable, commitments, capital works financing, and a bond loan issuance. Additionally, the Council addressed the Laurentian Municipal Housing Office's revised budget, approved detours for upcoming infrastructure work, authorized a family event, and engaged in discussions regarding labor negotiations and emergency response times.

The council held a public consultation regarding two proposed regulatory amendments related to zoning and land use. The first amendment aims to encourage shared vehicular access roads by excluding the shared portion from the calculation of mandatory natural space on residential lots. The second amendment allows for a 10% reduction in the required natural space if compensation is provided, either by ceding a piece of land to the city within the same watershed or by placing a non-construction easement on land of equal ecological value. The meeting included a question-and-answer period where citizens raised concerns regarding the process, transparency, and timing of these changes in relation to the ongoing overhaul of the urban planning plan.

The City Council conducted a public consultation to discuss proposed amendments to zoning and development plan regulations. The discussion focused on four main areas: authorizing outdoor recreational activities and machinery storage at the former Grey Rocks mountain sector; permitting agritourism activities, including farm product showcases and educational farm visits, in an agricultural zone; allowing for a mixed-use residential development project; and modifying standards to support the expansion of a palliative care facility. All public feedback received will be compiled and presented to the City Council for further consideration in the regulatory adoption process.

The council discussed various administrative and operational matters, including the upcoming revision of the code of ethics, scheduling of future council sessions, and the adoption of directives regarding language matters. Key actions included the approval of an outsourcing service contract, the repeal of an inclusive communication policy, and the authorization of a letter of understanding to settle disputes with the firefighter's association. Additionally, the council approved modifications to the city employee pension plan and reviewed financial statements and accounts payable.

The committee discussed and approved two demolition requests. The first request concerned the main building at 5, 98, and 604 Rue du Moulin, which is no longer inhabited and slated for a new 12-unit residential project. The second request involved the main buildings at 307 and 309 Chemin du Lac Tremblant Nord, also no longer inhabited, which are part of an integrated project proposal involving multiple new buildings.
