A heritage evaluation of the structure was submitted to the city last August by a working group made up of experts from Verdun, the City of Montreal, the potential new property owners and Laurent Messier, who represented Notre-Dame-de-la-Trinit\u00e9, the owners of Notre-Dame-de-la-Paix. Individuals included; Yves Bonneville, the president of D\u00e9veloppement Bonneville; former Verdun Mayor Georges Boss\u00e9, who now owns BC2FP Groupe conseil; Philippe Desrosiers and Beno\u00eet Malette from Verdun; Anne-Marie Dufour, a City of Montreal architect; Jennifer Ouellet, who works with Montreal\u2019s heritage department and Fran\u00e7ois Racine, an architect with Atelier B.R.I.C.<\/p>\n<p>Verdun councillors requested that Montreal city councillors modify Montreal\u2019s urban plan to remove the Notre-Dame-de-la-Paix church from its list of exceptional heritage buildings in Verdun and authorize the demolition and rebuilding on lot 1 153 010. They also authorized the building of a single family home on part of the property, which will be 3033, rue Wellington. The resolution was moved by Andr\u00e9e Champoux and seconded by Paul P. Beaupr\u00e9.<\/p>\n<p>A second resolution, to request that Montreal city countil authorize the construction of the school on Nun\u2019s Island was moved by Alain Tass\u00e9 and seconded by Andr\u00e9e Champoux. To make that possible, the Office de consultation publique de Montr\u00e9al will have to hold public consultations in June and ask for submissions in July, something it doesn\u2019t usually do.<\/p>\n<p>Note: This article appeared on p16 of the City Edition of the The Suburban on Wednesday, June 12.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Verdun plans to demolish Notre Dame de la Paix church and build school on Nun\u2019s Island At a special meeting called last May 16, Verdun councillors voted to begin the process to tear down Verdun\u2019s Notre-Dame-de-la-Paix church on 3465, rue Ethel \/ 345, rue Strathmore.
