The Mount Royal Cemetery is considering legal action against the City of Montreal as access to the site would be limited under plans to close Camillien-Houde Way to traffic.
“By deciding to permanently close the Camillien-Houde route, the city is acting illegally and contravening the rights of (the cemetery) as well as its contractual obligations.”
Six months before Mayor Valérie Plante announced Camillien-Houde Way s revamp, her administration was also cautioned about a 95-year-old legal document that could throw a wrench into the plan.
