Call for candidates – Planning Advisory Committee

The City of Westmount is seeking candidates to serve on its Planning Advisory Committee (PAC). As an advisory committee for City Council, the PAC provides recommendations with respect to the approval or rejection of permit applications reviewed under By-law on Site Planning and Architectural Integration Programmes. Upon Council’s request, the Committee also provides recommendations related to planning, zoning, subdivision and building in Westmount. Furthermore, in accordance with the Cultural Heritage Act, the PAC acts as the Local Heritage Council and advises Council on matters related to heritage protection.

The candidate will serve on the PAC as a substitute member for a two-year term. In accordance with By-law 1320 and its respective amendments, eligible candidates must be Westmount residents and a member in good standing with either the Ordre des architectes du Québec or the Ordre des urbanistes du Québec.
