“The provision was integrated into the city 2025 budget“Recalled the bourgmestre.”This budget had to accomplish an entire administrative path. After being voted by the college, then the municipal council, he was sent to the Walloon supervision with all the regulations linked to it. The Walloon Region has just validated the whole a good week ago.“

This validation of the Montois budget is good news. Indeed, while the finances of the big cities are tight, the supervision could have refused this second hour of parking offered, because it will have an impact on the budget. But the majority had announced that this “gift” would be compensated by other returns. The region was therefore convinced by Montois adjustments and gave the green light.
“We will now launch the internal administrative procedure in the city to be able to set up the two free parking hours. In particular, it is necessary to intervene on all the parking meters“Continues Nicolas Martin.”Our teams are at work. I think we should be able to establish these two hours for the end of August, or even in early September. For the start of the school year therefore.“
In line from the bourgmestre, there is obviously access to the shops in the city center and competition from shopping centers where parking is not a problem. “”It will be a nice step forward“, therefore estimates Nicolas Martin about this second hour offered. “In all major cities, you just have to offer this advantage. But I think it’s a good boost to support our traders and promote access to the city center.“
