Municipalité de Saint-Narcisse-de-Beaurivage

What Municipalité de Saint-Narcisse-de-Beaurivage does

Municipalité de Saint-Narcisse-de-Beaurivage is a small rural municipal government in the MRC de Lotbinière, Chaudière-Appalaches region of Quebec, approximately 20 minutes from Quebec City bridges. The parish was established in 1872 and the territory has been continuously settled since the 1820s. The municipality delivers statutory local services to its residents, including road and infrastructure maintenance, drinking water, waste management, fire safety (via a volunteer fire department), police coverage (contracted through the Sûreté du Québec), and local permitting through the PerLE online platform. Community and recreational services are a significant operational focus: the Centre Sportif Yanni Gourde (named after an NHL alumnus), an outdoor pool, an outdoor ice rink, a community centre, a youth centre (Maison des jeunes), a day camp, a library connected to the Réseau Biblio network, and a coordinated recreation department overseen by a dedicated coordinator. Cultural programming centres on the annual Festival de la Gargouille and the quarterly Journal Le Narcissique. The governance structure consists of a mayor and six councilors; the General Director (Dany Lehoux) leads administration.

The municipality's revenue model is based on property taxation, with the 2026 residential rate set at $0.77 per $100 of assessment, plus surtaxes for police ($0.0675), special aqueduct/sewer ($0.0325), and a special village-sector levy ($0.17). Facility rentals (arena, community hall, pool, sports fields) and program fees generate supplementary, non-tax revenue. Strategic priorities for 2026 include the implementation of paperless council sessions, selected public-works personnel additions, and operational partnerships with the Corporation de développement local, the Coop de Solidarité Santé du Sud de Lotbinière, the FADOQ Club, and the Cercle des Fermières. The civic technology stack is built around vendor-provided platforms: SAA for citizen alerts, PerLE for online permitting, and Qidigo for recreation booking, with no proprietary AI or advanced data systems deployed.

• Municipalité de Lotbinière: Named peer within MRC de Lotbiniere and eponymous regional entity; useful comparator for small-rural municipal governance, heritage preservation, and tourism-circuit positioning.

Direct peers

Others
