What Mont-Laurier, Ville de does

Ville de Mont-Laurier is a municipal government entity serving as the central town (ville centre) of MRC d'Antoine-Labelle in the Haute-Laurentides region of Quebec, Canada. The municipality serves a population of over 14,000 residents across urban, semi-urban, and rural areas and operates as part of an agglomeration structure with Saint-Aimé-du-Lac-des-Îles. Its functional mandate spans public safety (fire services), water and wastewater treatment, road and infrastructure maintenance, urban planning and permitting, municipal taxation, recreation and cultural programming, libraries, and waste management. The municipality is led by Mayor Daniel Bourdon (elected 2017) and Director General François Leduc, with directors overseeing urban planning, public works, leisure/culture/parks, fire safety, water treatment, finance, HR, and clerk/legal services.

Revenue is generated primarily through municipal property taxation collected in three annual installments, supplemented by recreation program fees (hockey, swimming, figure skating, pickleball, softball) processed through the Amilia online registration platform with resident vs. non-resident pricing differentials, transfer duties on property sales, fines and penalties, interest income from cash management, and substantial provincial and federal grants funding capital infrastructure (notably a 13.2 million CAD new library and approximately 6.5 million CAD in annual summer capital works). In 2025, the city recorded a 2,746,237 CAD operating surplus (3,819,117 CAD consolidated) on nearly 14.5 million CAD in consolidated capital investments, with total long-term debt of 44,582,000 CAD at a ratio below the Quebec municipal average. Service delivery combines in-person city hall operations, an online citizen portal, the Amilia platform, citizen alert SMS/email systems, and partnerships with community sports associations.

Revenue model

1. Municipal Taxation: The primary revenue source is property taxation (taxes municipales) levied on residential and commercial properties within the city boundaries. Revenue is collected in three equal installments per year. The city also generates tax-related revenues from transfer duties (droits de mutation) on property sales.
2. Recreation Program Fees: Revenue from registration fees for leisure and sports activities including hockey, figure skating, swimming, pickleball, softball, and day camp, processed through the Amilia platform. Residents receive preferential (lower) rates compared to non-residents.
3. Fines and Penalties: Revenue from law enforcement fines and penalties for municipal violations. Late payment interest on taxes, transfer duties, and miscellaneous billings also contributes revenue.
4. Interest Income: Interest revenue generated from prudent cash management and municipal liquidity in a favorable interest rate environment.
5. Government Grants and Subsidies: Provincial and federal government grants fund major infrastructure projects including the new library construction ($13.2M project), road rehabilitation, and cultural infrastructure.
