À Rimouski, un projet immobilier empiétant sur un boisé est mis «de côté»
AI Article Summary
A controversial real estate project in Rimouski, which would encroach on a wooded area, has been sidelined due to an excess of housing being constructed elsewhere in the city. Although deemed less urgent, the project remains on hold for possible future housing needs. Previously, the project faced strong public opposition. The municipality plans to focus on downtown densification in its next urban plan.
What This Means for Canadian Contractors
This project shows how development priorities can shift based on housing supply and local market dynamics. For Quebec builders, this means they must be ready to adapt their plans according to new urban guidelines and land reserves put on hold. The availability of new housing might impact future project schedules and their financing.
