Arrondissement d’Ahuntsic-Cartierville and Service de l’eau
A citizen asks that a fire hydrant installed in front of her garage entrance, several years ago, be relocated: this hydrant makes snow removal of her entrance difficult, increases the cost of insurance (flood risk) and prevents the citizen from doing certain works. The Borough informs the citizen that this operation will cost her $19,449. She contacts the OdM.
The Borough and the Service de l’eau both confirm that such fees normally apply in such circumstances.
The Service de l’eau notes, however, that this hydrant has reached the end of its useful life: for this reason, it will exceptionally move the hydrant, free of charge, under the Programme de mise à niveau des bornes-fontaines.
