Seven construction projects, two contracts, the Library\u2019s \u201cReading\u2019s Worth It\u201d project, a new Place Ross-Blackhurst in Riverside Park and a discussion about chips and IGA wine were among the key features at the LaSalle Borough Meeting\u00a0last\u00a0Monday, October 6.<\/p>\n
The borough accepted plans related to the construction of a new multi-family building on Allard Street. No address nor lot number was provided in the agenda and the resolution was not read out loud. Instead number 40.09, was passed in a single resolution within resolutions 40.04 to 40.16. Pierre Dupuis, the borough of LaSalle’s clerk has since provided more information. He says that the lot\u00a0is 5 321 996, and the project is OPUS V, \u00a0a 150 condo building, the fifth and last phase of the Opus condo development in Quartier Angrignon. He also says that in future lot numbers will be included in resolutions where no building yet exists on the site.*<\/p>\n
The other resolutions in that section were related to architectural and integration plans. They included balcony replacements, sheathing replacements, signage approvals and two building expansions, one at 786, 39th<\/sup> Avenue and the other at 2225 rue L\u00e9ger.<\/p>\n The 8-unit residential project at 8869-8885 Centrale Street was adopted and the right to build a 6.7 metre building at 786 39th<\/sup> Avenue was approved.<\/p>\n Residents asked about parking at the new building on Centrale and the decision of the borough to refrain from distributing written material during their consultation.<\/p>\n Twelve people attended the meeting to ask questions about the Bois des Caryers project.<\/p>\n Groupe Quorum\u2019s LaSalle Heights project also got attention when borough councillors extended the company\u2019s right to house its mobile unit in the Angrignon Mall parking lot until January 15, 2015.<\/p>\n Two contracts were awarded.<\/p>\n R\u00e9cup\u00e9ration Tersol, a company owned by Trois-Rivi\u00e8res resident Mario Guillemette, received a three-year contract worth more than two million dollars to collect recycling from January 2015 until the end of February 2018. Two options to renew the contract for additional years were included in the resolution.<\/p>\n Borough councillors also extended Gestion Normar\u2019s contract for the hourly rental of six tow trucks to cover the 2014-2015 snow-clearing season at a cost of $76,902. The company is owned by Normand Martin of Mercier.<\/p>\n Finally, the Octogone Library was given permission to forgive late book return penalties for any child 13 years and younger as part of their \u201creading\u2019s worth it\u201d event during public library week from October 18 to 25.<\/p>\n Borough councillors designated a new Ross-Blackhurst Place in the heart of Riverside Park.<\/p>\n Near the end of the evening, Joseph Pugliese asked Councillor Monique Vall\u00e9e for a list of the ten people she invited to LaSalle\u2019s VIP section during Canada Day and the 100th<\/sup> Anniversary Celebrations. After she said that no lists of invitees exist in LaSalle, Pugliese followed up by asking Mayor Manon Barbe to confirm that VIP guests really get \u201cchips and IGA wine,\u201d as borough staff told him when he recently placed an access-to-information request for VIP costs. The mayor confirmed the comment.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Note: This article appeared on pages 10 and 11 of the City edition of The Suburban on October 8.<\/p>\n *This lot number did not appear in the previous version of this story.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Seven construction projects, two contracts, the Library\u2019s \u201cReading\u2019s Worth It\u201d project, a new Place Ross-Blackhurst in Riverside Park and a discussion about chips and IGA wine were among the key features at the LaSalle Borough Meeting\u00a0last\u00a0Monday, October 6.
