Our 2016 Annual Report outlined an important file that led to the withdrawal of nearly 250 Parking Tickets issued alongside a bicycle path, when there was confusion as to its opening and closing schedule in winter: this was the North-South path, known as the Boyer Bicycle Path. We had announced that we would pursue our intervention to ensure that the 109 citizens<\/strong> who had already paid their Statement of Offence at the time of the withdrawal would be reimbursed.<\/p>\n Following a new complaint filed in 2017, the OdM<\/strong> finds out that 17<\/strong> Statements of Offence had also been issued in the same period (around November 15, 2016) alongside the Mentana\/Saint-Gr\u00e9goire segment of the bicycle path. Our enquiry reveals that there was also confusion as to the opening and closing schedule in winter of this path’s segment.<\/p>\n The City agrees to cancel the 8 Statements of Offence<\/strong> that have been disputed; however, 9<\/strong> of them had already been paid. We engage in talks with the City to have these Statements of Offence also reimbursed, as with the 109 above-mentioned files.<\/p>\n At the end of 2017, the Service des affaires juridiques<\/em> confirms that the modalities retained for reimbursement will be adopted in 2018. These modalities are complex: they require that the City Council and the Agglomeration Council delegate to Ville de Montr\u00e9al<\/em>‘s Executive Committee the authority to reimburse said Statements. The negotiations to this end begin in February 2018. Our office continues to monitor the file.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Charter File Our 2016 Annual Report outlined an important file that led to the withdrawal of nearly 250 Parking Tickets issued alongside a bicycle path, when there was confusion as to its opening and closing schedule in winter: this was … Continue reading New File in 2017<\/h3>\n
