The public works department in the borough of LaSalle saved enough money on their paving contracts this year that they are able to pave Champlain Blvd. between Bishop Power and the borough of Verdun before the snow flies. The work is underway now and scheduled to be completed by November 1.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis infrastructure money came from Montreal in their budget last spring,\u201d said Pierre Dupuis, a spokesperson for the Borough. \u201cWe were scheduled to redo parts of Armel, Ducas, Thierry and Serre streets. The contracts were lower than expected, so that\u2019s why Champlain could be done within the Montreal envelope.\u201d<\/p>\n
Other parts of Champlain Boulevard are closed to traffic as well. The city of Montreal is paving the portion they own near Dollard Street and Verdun is busy paving a portion they own near 6th<\/sup> Avenue.<\/p>\n To approve the work in their borough, the LaSalle council called a special meeting for September 27, a contract of $518,263.58 went to Sintra Inc. (R\u00e9gion Rive-Sud) to repave Champlain Blvd. between Bishop Power and S\u00e9n\u00e9cal Avenue.<\/p>\n The company is registered under the name Germain Perron, NEQ 1145755295 and is owned primarily by ColasCanada Inc. All the companies have their head offices at 4984, Place de la Savane, Montreal. Directors include Germain Perron; Louis R. Gabanna from Edmonton, Alberta; Jean-Yves Llenas; Normand B\u00e9dard; Daniel Pelneault; and Robert C\u00f4t\u00e9. It was created through the mergers of Compagnie Asphalte Lt\u00e9e, 9067-6297 Qu\u00e9bec Inc., 9094-3564 Qu\u00e9bec Inc., B\u00e9ton St-Ephrem Inc., Pag\u00e9 Construction Lt\u00e9e, Sintra Inc., A. Lamothe (1991) Inc., Pavage De Dorchester Inc. and Pavage Sigma Inc.<\/p>\n The council also approved up to $85,000 in additional expenses for last minute issues that aren\u2019t covered by the Sintra contract.<\/p>\n Note: This article appeared on p7 of the city edition of the Suburban on October 24.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The public works department in the borough of LaSalle saved enough money on their paving contracts this year that they are able to pave Champlain Blvd. between Bishop Power and the borough of Verdun before the snow flies.
