Summary#
Montréal’s city council unanimously approved a position on a proposed first amendment to a financial assistance agreement between the City and the Ministère des Affaires municipales et de l’Habitation (Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing). The agreement supports work to revise the Montréal agglomeration’s land-use and development plan and include new provincial land-use guidelines. The agglomeration council makes the final decision at a later meeting.
- The city council’s decision sets its position in favour of approving the amendment; it does not itself approve the amendment to the agreement.
