Belmont Street Floods Demand Real Solutions | Montreal News
Description
Residents of Saint-Leonard are screaming for real solutions after years of flooding on Belmont Street, where sandbags—tough for seniors and just a band-aid—are the only fix offered by the borough. With basement apartments repeatedly ruined and property values plummeting, frustrated homeowners packed council meetings demanding action. Mayor Perri admits the current measures are temporary, pointing to long-term projects like a sponge park and drainage upgrades—but those won’t arrive anytime soon. For now, families live in fear, their homes and futures soaked in uncertainty.
