Ville de Longueuil

What Ville de Longueuil does

Ville de Longueuil is a municipal government entity and the fifth-largest city in Quebec, founded in 1852 and serving as the central city of the agglomeration of Longueuil with 448,000+ residents across three arrondissements (Vieux-Longueuil, Saint-Hubert, and Greenfield Park). The city employs approximately 3,300 staff organized through specialized operating subsidiaries including the Service de police de l'agglomération de Longueuil (SPAL), the Service de sécurité incendie de l'agglomération de Longueuil (SSIAL), the Bureau de l'éthique et de l'inspection contractuelle (BÉIC), and the Bureau du cinéma et de la télévision de Longueuil (BCTL). It is led by Mairesse Catherine Fournier, re-elected November 2, 2025, who also serves as President of the executive committee of the agglomeration and of the Table de concertation régionale de la Montérégie.

The city operates a digital citizen services platform comprising Mon portail citoyen (a centralized online portal for service access), Permis en ligne (digital permitting), the Geohub (interactive maps covering infrastructure, cycling networks, road work, parking, and forestry), an open data portal, and a citizen alert system delivering email/SMS/voice notifications for emergencies and advisories. Distribution is omnichannel through physical service counters at City Hall and arrondissement offices, the 311 call center (operating ~70 hours/week), the online portal, and active social media presence across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, and YouTube. Notable recent operational outcomes include a 20% decrease in building fires in 2025 (with material losses of $18.1M, nearly $10M lower than 2024) and 2,645 citizen participations in the OPPL sustainable mobility consultation between August 2025 and February 2026.

The business model is tax-funded public administration, not commercial revenue generation: revenue streams consist of property taxation (the primary source, covering public safety, infrastructure, culture, and recreation), user fees for specific services (permits, recreation programs, cultural activities, library services, notarization at $5/document), provincial and federal government transfers for shared-cost programs, and land sales/development fees (e.g., the market-value sale to Groupe Montoni for the Espace Longueuil project). The city has committed $4,475M over 10 years (PDI 2027-2036) to capital infrastructure, anchored in 2027 by $160M in local investment plus $111M for aqueduct/sewer, $68M for road resurfacing, $76M for swimming pools, and $30M for parks and green spaces. Strategic positioning emphasizes three growth axes: aerospace (anchored by Pratt & Whitney Canada's $275M investment and the Aérocampus), economic development (Espace Longueuil convention center, hotel, and 620-unit housing project delivered 2030), and environmental sustainability (125,000-tree partnership with Soverdi by 2040 targeting 30% canopy coverage). The CIViS (Centre de services intégrés en violence sexuelle) project, launched 2023 in partnership with SPAL, La Traversée, and CAVAC Montérégie, was awarded the UMQ's Prix Joseph-Beaubien in 2026.
