One hundred days after taking office, the mayor of Rosemère and her municipal council are reporting positive results that are grounded in the everyday realities of citizens. Of the 66 actions included in the election platform, more than 19 have already been initiated, covering five major priorities: citizen services, finances, environment, community life, and urban development.

These priorities are already translating into concrete benefits for the population, ensuring rigorous and equitable management of public finances, modernizing municipal services, investing in sustainable infrastructure, and taking structural action to address climate challenges. They also help to support local commercial vitality, strengthen the community fabric, and preserve the assets that contribute to Rosemère's quality of life and identity. These measures have a clear objective: to improve the quality of life in Rosemère by putting citizens at the heart of our actions.

"One hundred days is a start—and that's exactly what it is. We don't claim to have accomplished everything, but we are proud to have made a start on all fronts. We have tackled the five priorities expressed by citizens during the last election campaign: improving service to citizens, redeveloping before developing, keeping our seniors in Rosemère, bringing back day camps, and supporting citizens vulnerable to flooding. We are listening, we are working, and we are accountable to every citizen of Rosemère. The coming months and years will be just as busy, and I look forward to reporting on our progress regularly," said Rosemère Mayor Marie-Elaine Pitre.

Throughout its term, the municipal council intends to continue its work with the same energy, in a spirit of listening, transparency, and accountability to all Rosemère citizens.
