Whether you love them or hate them, Tempos could soon be coming to driveways in Cote St-Luc.
Most boroughs allow tempos to go up as early as October 15th, and the city could be joining them.
Mayor Mitchell Brownstein says 80 per cent of Cote St-Luc residents didn’t officially oppose the proposed bylaw – the other 20 per cent voted against it.
The main concern, according to Brownstein, is safety, specially since one third of Cote St-Luc’s population is over 65.
“If we could save one person from breaking their hip, then we will have continued to further our mission in Cote St-Luc of making it safe,” he said.
Right now, about 100 people living in Cote St-Luc – residents who have a medical issue or don’t have a garage – are allowed to have one.
With the majority of residents not opposed to Tempos, the bylaw is expected to pass when council votes on October 29th.
