Since December 2022, Crime Prevention Ahuntsic-Cartierville has been working on a project in partnership with the Comité Logement Ahuntsic-Cartierville (CLAC).
This Brigade is an initiative that aims to improve living conditions for citizens by ensuring the cleanliness, safety and good condition of housing. The Brigade works in close collaboration with local authorities.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The main mission of the BSSL is to carry out door-to-door inspections of housing blocks with more than 6 dwellings. It looks after the health of dwellings, combating problems of insalubrity such as dampness, mold, pest infestations and accumulated garbage.
As far as safety is concerned, BSSL ensures that homes comply with fire safety standards. Our staff carry out date checks on fire extinguishers. They also raise residents’ awareness of good domestic safety practices, to reduce the risk of accidents.
The project also plays an important role in resolving disputes between landlords and tenants. It acts as a neutral mediator to facilitate discussions and find equitable solutions. The aim is to prevent conflict and promote harmonious relations between the parties concerned.
The project also collaborates with other competent services and organizations, such as social and health services, to offer a comprehensive approach to housing issues. It takes part in awareness-raising and educational initiatives to promote quality of life and well-being in housing.
