The city is initiating the expropriation of land (Lot 4 064 290) in the Bellevue district to facilitate the construction of a new school and a water retention basin. This is a necessary step to secure the land required for essential public infrastructure in the area.

Council authorized the expropriation of land in the 'White Zone' to build a retention basin to address drainage issues and to provide a site for a new school for the *Centre de services scolaire des Draveurs*. This decision follows unsuccessful negotiations with the property owner.
