The Sport Centre, as originally conceived and proposed by the previous administration, received bids at $88-94M, far exceeding the project budget alloted by the Town.
However, the new Town Council is committed to assuring new sports facilities for the Town, including the promised indoor swimming pool.
The Council will proceed with a strategic and fiscally sound approach that meets the needs of residents and preserves the town’s precious green space. This is the majority priority of Council.
Residents are informed of project progress updates as they become available.
The current Council will not consider any rezoning of the Royalmount industrial sector to include residential development.
However, the commercial components of Carbonleo's Royalmount project continues. Following an agreement with the Town of Mount Royal and Ville de Montréal, construction work by Carbonleo to build the pedestrian overpass from Royalmount project to De la Savane metro station is planned to start in the Summer in 2022.
By-law 1440-1 to modify the zoning and urban density of Rockland Sector as proposed by the previous administration has expired without effect.
Any change to the vision of the Rockland Sector will only be considered as part of a future thoroughly developed, integrated citizen-driven 10-20 year Urban Plan for the town.
Note: This section will be evolving and will contain important information on the Beaumont PPU reflecting the evolution of the consultation process.
The Town of Mount Royal has begun preparing a special planning program (PPU in French) for the Beaumont sector. Council is seeking ideas and comments from all stakeholders to guide its future actions and orientations.
A detailed, long-term planning document for a part of the Town for which significant changes are slated. The PPU sets out a vision and development orientations based on major issues in the area and on citizens’ concerns, needs and expectations.
To discover more about what a PPU is, consult the Quick guide to Special Planning Programs prepared by the Office de consultation publique de Montréal.
Located in the southeast part of the Town, it shares municipal borders with the Outremont and Villeray–Saint-Michel–Parc-Extension boroughs.
Adopted in 2017, the Town of Mount Royal’s Urban Plan (UP) is the planning document that guides the development of the Town’s territory. It classifies the Beaumont sector as “a sector to be transformed,” with plans to diversify its activities in the medium and long term. The Beaumont sector is of particular strategic importance due to the proximity of the Acadie metro station and the sector’s location at the entrance to the town. Numerous nearby projects are driving the sector’s revitalization, including Université de Montréal’s MIL Campus and the repair work on the Rockland overpass by the Urban Agglomeration of Montreal. The Town of Mount Royal believes this is an opportune time to consolidate the sector’s development projects with a view to enhancing the economic vitality and quality of life of its citizens.
The Town is therefore beginning planning work to define a vision and development guidelines for the Beaumont sector by developing a Special Planning Program (PPU). The Town wishes to work with all stakeholders involved to take into account the sector’s many challenges and make it a vibrant living environment.
