The Borough alleges that by virtue of this Agreement, the developer was to install compactors: this would necessarily imply relying on private waste collection firms, since the City is not equipped to collect waste from compactors.<\/p>\n<p>However, the plans submitted to and approved by the Borough did not mention waste compactors. The Borough adds that, as part of the conditions to approve these plans, it had required a <em>Letter of engagement <\/em>from the developer confirming that he would arrange for private waste collection service for each building included in the project.<\/p>\n<p>Following the analysis of relevant documents and applicable regulation, the <strong>OdM <\/strong>provides the Borough with various reasons explaining why its refusal to offer this service is unjustified in this case. Among others:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The agreement with the developer addressed the\u00a0issue of setting up garbage storage areas, and not the collection service.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The plans that were approved by the Borough did not include waste compactors: in fact, such compactors have not been installed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">There is no concluding evidence in the <em>R\u00e8glement sur\u00a0<\/em><em>les services de collecte <\/em>that these condominiums are not entitled to this municipal service: rather, the regulation suggests otherwise.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The <em>Letter of engagement <\/em>is not enforceable against third parties or legal entities that did not exist at\u00a0the time (such as the Syndicate of co-owners). If the developer did not respect his undertaking, the Borough could potentially file a claim against him, but the letter cannot justify denying a service that is usually provided to all citizens.<\/p>\n<p>The Borough ends up reviewing its position and agrees to introduce waste collection service in the targeted area, to the condo owners\u2019 delight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arrondissement de Rosemont\u2212La Petite-Patrie Five condominium associations dispute the refusal by the Borough to provide municipal waste collection service in their newly developed area.
