Plan for architectural placement and integration (PIIA)

1. Recover the grid of objectives and evaluation criteria taken directly from the PIIA by-law after having determined in which PIIA your property is located:

1. Evaluate your project in light of each of the evaluation criteria that applies. The grid is divided into different themes and for each of them, there are objectives to achieve. Ideally – although it is not an obligation – your project should meet all the objectives stated there. Your project will certainly have a better chance of being approved if it meets all the objectives rather than only some.
2. Gather all documents, including $300 if your project is not residential. (There are no fees for residential projects.)
3. Submit the documents:
   • in person at the Town Planning Department where you could meet with an inspector who will ensure that all documents are included;
   • or by email to urbanisme@villedemont-tremblant.qc.ca
4. Analysis by the Town Planning inspector
5. Analysis by the CCU
6. Recommendation by the CCU to the municipal council
7. Decision of the municipal council

The documents must be submitted at least 15 days before the meeting of the consultative committee on town planning (CCU).

These documents to be provided when requesting a PIIA permit are in addition to those required for your permit request.

• A plan signed by a land surveyor which shows the location and dimensions of each building (existing or projected)

• A study demonstrating all existing wooded areas and the trees to be cut

• The four elevations, in colour, of the building indicating the types of materials used and a proposed landscaping plan

• Colour samples of the exterior cladding, the roofing, and the ornamental elements

• Photographs of neighbouring properties, of the site and of the existing building

For commercial buildings, all lighting details including calculation of the illumination and a photometric report for the parking area luminaires (outside lighting fixtures)

For each request, the documents provided for reproduction must be of a maximum format size of 11 x 17 inches and to scale.

Note: The inspector who will be dealing with your request reserves the right to require any additional documents or information (according to the applicable articles from 14 to 69 of by-law (2008)-101 and articles 11 and 12 of by-law (2008)-106) which will allow him or her to have a clear and precise understanding of your project.
