The planned conversion of the building at 8591-8595 rue Centrale, where Monsieur Depanneur is located, breaks several sections of the borough zoning law, so citizens have the right to ask for a referendum about the project if they so choose.<\/p>\n

To do so, at least twelve people in one of the zones affected<\/a>–either the one in which the building is located or two others to either side of it, must sign an application and submit it to City Hall by\u00a0Friday, March 20 at noon.<\/p>\n

Last month, the borough of LaSalle held a consultation about the planned conversion of the building<\/p>\n

Owners Young Hae Cho and Bok Hee Bae were there with their architect David Morin<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This is my first project in LaSalle,\u201d said Morin, who has his own firm on Clark Street in the Plateau. \u201cI was interested in seeing how these public consultations take place here.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Eight people attended the consultation, which was run by Richard Deschamps.<\/p>\n

Plans call for the two-storey building to be completely reconfigured to allow for two apartments upstairs and one downstairs. Monsieur Depanneur will remain intact with renovations taking place around the store so that it can continue operating throughout. The small electrical workshop at the back of the building will be torn down to make room for three townhouses. Twenty current parking spots will be replaced with only nine outdoors but another 11 will be built underground for residents.<\/p>\n

Only one person, Francisco Moreno, had questions. Moreno asked about the differing colour of brick on three of the new buildings.<\/p>\n

I wish I could have answered that question,\u201d said Morin after the consultation was finished. \u201cThe colour of the brick for the townhouses is a lighter colour than the existing building to match the neighbours\u2019 buildings [on 43rd<\/sup> Avenue].<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Mr. Bae and Mrs Cho seemed relieved that no big questions arose. The couple has owned the two-storey 1960-era building for 17 years and they still live right behind it. Mr. Bae used to run Monsieur Depanneur until an illness forced him to retire.<\/p>\n
