Transformation of the City Centre
The two REM stations in Pointe-Claire will help transform our City Centre while respecting sustainable development focused on active public transportation, as well as mixed uses (residential, commercial, business, or industrial).
Residential complexes that will be developed in these areas will meet new housing needs for young people, families, and seniors while increasing the number of local shops, businesses and workplaces.
The City must work in conjunction with the Agence régionale de transport métropolitain (ARTM), the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec (CDPQ), and the Agglomeration of Montréal in order to ensure that developments in terms of urban planning, roads, and active public transit give everyone easy, safe, and harmonious access to both new stations.
Transportation dues
The REM will be financed in part by new transportation dues imposed by the Autorité régionale de transport métropolitain (ARTM) within a radius of one kilometre around the two stations planned in the City of Pointe-Claire.
The transportation dues are collected when the City issues a permit and are given entirely to the CDPQ, which is promoting the REM. The financing target is $600M or 50 years.
Dues have been payable since May 1, 2018, when a permit is issued.
Any building located entirely or partially within the zone with a radius of one kilometre is subject to transportation dues.
Projects affected:
- Those where the value of work exceeds $756,150 (indexed annually)
- With a floor area of 186 m² and over (2,002 sq. ft. and over)
Type of projects:
- Construction of a building;
- Reconstruction of a building;
- Increase in floor area of a building;
- Redevelopment of a building including a change of use, even partial.
Exempted owners:
- Public organizations
- Childcare centres
- Non-profit organizations or solidarity cooperatives
- Crown agents
- Community action organizations funded by the Crown
- Any other person appointed by the government
Rate of dues:
$107.64/m² or $10/sq. ft. X Floor area of the affected work
The rate of dues is progressive and indexed annually:
- May 1, 2018: 50%
- January 1, 2019: 65%
- January 1, 2020: 80%
