LAGO promoter Cédric Grenon has, through a numbered company, filed a lawsuit against the Ville de Mont-Tremblant for $125,000. The allegations are that the Ville refuses to issue a swimming pool permit for a 72-unit development at lac Tremblant.
We’ve conducted an extensive search of the records at the Saint-Jérôme courthouse; the developer lost against the neighbours at both the Superior Court and the Court of Appeal. The rulings prevented LAGO from extending a cul-de-sac for direct access to underground parking at Bâtiment 2. The developer responded by suing nearby property owners for $604,000. Now, LAGO is suing the Ville.
The saga continues…
Currently, LAGO is attempting to install a car elevator on a narrow cul-de-sac. We are also disappointed that LAGO continues to be marketed and sold as “residential” despite the C-8 hotel zoning which restricts owners to under 31 days of use per year. The end result is that LAGO benefits from increased density (due to C-8) and gets to advertise the project as residential.
The saga continues…
The saga of bad projects doesn’t have to continue… Say No to such projects. No to Vivo on lac Ouimet, and No to all promoters pushing high-density projects. Our population advocates responsible development and the social acceptability of new projects: lawsuits by promoters against the Ville go against the goals of our community.
We thank the Ville for their latest decision. The community needs more decisions that protect the interests of citizens.
