Flood prevention consulting service now available
Please see below the details for the new service with flooding expert consulting firm Ecohabitation. Residents who apply for Pointe-Claire's flood assistance subsidy program can have Ecohabitation develop a flood prevention plan with them, with its fees being reimbursed as part of the subsidy. I would note that, contrary to some misconceptions, using Ecohabitation's service is not mandatory to get the subsidy. You can submit your own planned project to make your home more flood resilient using the online application forms and get it approved by the City so long as it falls within the eligible project categories listed on our website:
The City of Pointe-Claire is launching a new home evaluation service in partnership with Écohabitation, as part of its Financial Assistance Program for Stormwater Management.
This service allows eligible homeowners to receive a personalized work plan and guidance to better understand their home’s vulnerabilities, identify appropriate protective measures, and plan their renovation projects to make their property more resilient. The program includes an assessment, a personalized work plan, and, if necessary, assistance in analyzing contractor bids.
Home evaluation and consulting services are covered by the City, and their cost is deducted from the maximum financial assistance of $5,000 provided under the City’s Financial Assistance Program for Stormwater Management.

Due to the high level of interest in this program, response times may be longer during the first few weeks. Thank you for your understanding and patience.
