AI Article Summary

The city of Montreal will require owners of vacant buildings to register them starting in January. This measure aims to better monitor buildings that pose fire risks and ensure their safety. Penalties for non-compliance range from $500 to $10,000. The initiative, costing $200 annually for registration, is also part of a broader plan to address the city's vacant property issues, potentially converting some into affordable housing.
