WHEREAS, in 2017, the Quebec government transferred the Hippodrome lands to Ville de Montréal for $1, in order to build housing on the following condition: Art. 5.2.3 The Cavendish-Cavendish link is a road that falls under its [Montréal’s] responsibility, and it undertakes to include it in the agglomeration's transportation plan and its three-year capital program;
WHEREAS, in 2022, Ville de Montréal submitted a project notice to the BAPE confirming the crucial role of the Cavendish project for the development of the Namur Hippodrome (QNH) district;
WHEREAS, in 2024, Ville de Montréal withdrew the Cavendish-Cavendish project from the agglomeration budget and its new QNH urban planning/mobility plan, in violation of the Hippodrome agreement;

We, the signatories, ask the Québec government to require, in accordance with the 2017 agreement, that Ville de Montréal comply with the Cavendish-Cavendish road project schedule submitted to the BAPE and put the project back in the ten-year capital budget of the agglomeration (PDI), in order to obtain government funding for housing and/or infrastructure for the QNH.
