“municipality” means a municipality listed in Schedule I, or another municipality brought into an agreement by order of the Government;

“carrier” means a transit authority, a bus transport permit holder, a taxi permit holder, a group of taxi permit holders or a school bus carrier.

1983, c. 45, s. 1; 1985, c. 35, s. 30; 1993, c. 67, s. 112.

1.1. For the purposes of this Act, the service consists of the routes, frequency and schedule of trips.

1985, c. 35, s. 31.

DIVISION II INTERMUNICIPAL BOARD OF TRANSPORT

2. A municipality, by by-law, may authorize the making of an agreement with any other municipality for the establishment of an intermunicipal board of transport.

A board is established by order of the Government approving an agreement made under this section.

1983, c. 45, s. 2.

3. The objects of a board are to organize a public transport service in the territory of the municipalities party to the agreement, which territory constitutes the territory of the board, and to provide links to points outside its territory.

Only a carrier under contract with the board may supply the service.

1983, c. 45, s. 3.

4. The contract may be made without calling for tenders; where the board calls for tenders, it is not required to accept any tender whatsoever.

Where the contract is made with a school bus carrier, the carrier may use vehicles other than school buses or vehicles of the minibus type. The carrier shall not, in such a case, use those vehicles to transport pupils.

1983, c. 45, s. 4; 1985, c. 35, s. 32.

5. An agreement must contain

(1)  the names of the municipalities;

(2)  a description of its objects;

(3)  the name of the board;

(4)  the location of the head office of the board, which must be in the territory of a municipality party to the agreement;

(5)  the number of members of its council that each municipality party to the agreement may delegate to the board;

(6)  the number of votes assigned to each member of the board;

(7)  the amount of the financial contribution of each municipality or the mode of allocating the financial contributions;

(8)  the term of the agreement;

(9)  the mode of dividing the property, debts and other obligations of the board at the end of the agreement.

1983, c. 45, s. 5.

6. Every agreement is subject to Government approval, and when submitted therefor must be accompanied with its authorizing by-laws.

1983, c. 45, s. 6.

7. The municipalities party to the agreement may apply to the Government, by resolution of each of them setting out the reasons for the application, to bring into the agreement

(1)  a municipality not listed in Schedule I, where the number of persons residing in the territory of that municipality who are likely to use the proposed public transport service is such that it would be equitable to include the municipality in the agreement;

(2)  a municipality that refuses to be party to an agreement where its refusal puts the setting up of the public transport service in jeopardy or renders it too onerous.

The municipalities shall transmit the resolutions within 15 days of passage to the municipality they wish brought into the agreement. The latter municipality, within 30 days after receiving the resolution of the municipalities, may apply to the Government, by a resolution setting out the reasons for the application, not to be brought into the agreement. It shall then transmit the resolution within 15 days of passage to the municipalities party to the agreement.

In the cases contemplated in this section, in addition to the documents required in section 6, the agreement must be accompanied, when it is transmitted to the Government, with proof that the resolutions have been sent.

1983, c. 45, s. 7; 1984, c. 47, s. 36.

8. The Government may approve an agreement and order the establishment of a board, indicating in the order the date and place of its first meeting.

Where the Government approves an agreement, it may, in the cases provided in section 7, bring into it a municipality that is not listed in Schedule I or a municipality that refuses to be party thereto, in which case it shall fix the number of members the municipality may delegate to the board and determine how many votes are assigned to them. It may also establish the municipality’s financial contribution. A municipality brought into an agreement pursuant to this section is bound thereby.

The order is published in the Gazette officielle du Québec.

1983, c. 45, s. 8.

9. The municipalities party to the agreement may amend it.

A municipality may, by a resolution stating the grounds for its objection, request the Government not to approve the amendment. Where a municipality fails, following a request by the Minister of Transport, to transmit such a resolution within the time fixed by him, it is deemed to have agreed to the amendment.

The Government may approve the proposed amendment despite the objection of a municipality. The amendment to the agreement becomes effective from the date of publication in the Gazette officielle du Québec of the order by which the Government approves the amendment or from a later date indicated therein.

1983, c. 45, s. 9; 1988, c. 25, s. 45.

10. Sections 29.3, 71, 72, 73.1, 105, the first paragraph of section 105.1, sections 105.2, 108 to 108.6 and 356 to 368, paragraphs 8 and 10 of section 464 and sections 468.12 to 468.47, 468.51.1, 473, 477.1, 477.2, 564 and subsection 2 of section 567 and sections 604.6 to 604.13 of the Cities and Towns Act (chapter C-19), sections 1, 2, 4 to 8, 12 to 44 and 50 of the Act respecting municipal debts and loans (chapter D-7) and section 21 of the Act respecting the Ministère des Affaires municipales (chapter M-22.1), adapted as required, apply to the board.

In addition to the adaptations provided for in the first paragraph, the date on which the budget of a board must be submitted for adoption is 1 November each year for the purposes of section 468.34 of the Cities and Towns Act. A board must also send a copy of its budget and of its supplementary budget, if any, to the Agence métropolitaine de transport within the same time as the time within which it is required to send such copies to the municipalities party to the agreement constituting the board.

1983, c. 45, s. 10; 1984, c. 38, s. 133; 1985, c. 27, s. 80; 1986, c. 66, s. 1; 1988, c. 84, s. 705; 1995, c. 65, s. 115; 1996, c. 27, s. 144.

11. A board, by by-law, shall establish the public transport service it intends to organize.

A by-law of a board establishing a public transport service requires to be transmitted to the Agence métropolitaine de transport. If the by-law prescribes the establishment of a link to any point outside the territory of the board, the Agency may disallow the by-law with respect to such link within 30 days after receiving it; it shall thereafter notify the board and cause its decision to be published in the Gazette officielle du Québec.

The Agency may, however, before the expiry of the 30-day period, inform the board that it does not intend to disallow the by-law.

1983, c. 45, s. 11; 1985, c. 35, s. 33; 1986, c. 66, s. 2; 1988, c. 25, s. 46; 1995, c. 65, s. 116.

12. Where a transport organizing by-law is in force, the board, by resolution, may contract with a carrier to provide the service.

1983, c. 45, s. 12; 1985, c. 35, s. 34.

12.1. Where the board organizes for the first time a public transport service, other than a shared transportation service by taxi, which competes with the service supplied by the holder of a bus transport permit of the class determined by regulation of the Government, it shall first deliver its specifications for the proposed public transport service to the holder of the permit.

The permit holder may, within thirty days following the delivery of the specifications, submit a proposal to the board.

The Government may, by regulation, determine the class of bus transport permit a person is required to hold for the purposes of this section.

1985, c. 35, s. 35; 1986, c. 66, s. 3.

12.2. Failing an agreement with the permit holder within ninety days following the delivery of the specifications, the board may call for tenders.

The board shall, within thirty days after the opening of tenders, negotiate again with the permit holder after notifying all the tenderers in writing and make the contract with the holder if he agrees to execute the contract at the price of the lowest tender or at a lower price.

No changes may be made to the specifications for the purposes of the call for tenders or the negotiation.

1985, c. 35, s. 35.

12.3. Notwithstanding section 40 of the Transport Act (chapter T-12), the Commission des transports du Québec, following the receipt of a copy of the contract made by the board to organize a public transport service other than a shared transportation service by taxi, shall amend or, if necessary, revoke any bus transport permit of the class determined by the regulations under section 12.1 authorizing its holder to operate, in the territory of the board, a service that would compete with the service provided under the contract. The permit shall be amended or revoked only to the extent that such amendment or revocation is necessary to eliminate competing services.

The Commission shall, before amending or revoking a permit under the first paragraph, notify the permit holder in writing as prescribed by section 5 of the Act respecting administrative justice (chapter J-3) and allow the permit holder at least 10 days to present observations.

This section applies even where the holder of the permit is a party to the contract. It does not apply where the board organizes a public transport service for the first time and the contract is made for a period of less than six months.

1986, c. 66, s. 4; 1988, c. 25, s. 47; 1997, c. 43, s. 207.

12.4. Where the contract provides that the remuneration of the carrier shall be based, in whole or for the greater part, on the number of passengers carried, it must indicate, on an annual basis, the number of passengers projected by the parties and contain a clause whereby the board undertakes to make up any insufficiency of receipts due to a smaller number of passengers than the number projected in the contract.

1986, c. 66, s. 4.

13. Upon making a contract, a board shall send a copy to the Minister of Transport and to the Commission des transports du Québec.

1983, c. 45, s. 13.

14. The board, by resolution, shall fix the various passenger fares according to the classes of users it determines.

The board may make changes in the service; such changes shall be made by by-law of the board, except schedule changes which may be made by resolution.

A certified copy of every resolution concerning fares or schedules shall be published in a newspaper circulated in the territory of the board and shall be posted in every vehicle. No fare or schedule change may come into force before the expiry of 30 days after the date of publication and posting.

A carrier shall collect fares and supply any new service. Every contract must contain clauses for adjusting the contract price to take account of changes in the service.

1983, c. 45, s. 14; 1988, c. 25, s. 48.

15. Where a member of a board gives notice of a motion to make a change in a service, he shall at the same time table a draft by-law. A summary of the draft requires to be published in a newspaper circulated in the territory of the board and to be posted up in the vehicles of the carrier not less than 30 days before the adoption of the by-law.

1983, c. 45, s. 15; 1988, c. 25, s. 49.

16. A copy of a by-law of a board making a change in its service requires to be transmitted to the Agence métropolitaine de transport.

If the by-law prescribes the establishment of or a change to a link to any point outside the territory of the board, the Agency may disallow the by-law with respect to such link within 30 days after receiving it; it shall thereafter notify the board and cause its decision to be published in the Gazette officielle du Québec. In no case may the part of the by-law that has been disallowed be published or come into force.

The Agency may, however, before the expiry of the 30-day period, inform the board that it does not intend to disallow the by-law.

1983, c. 45, s. 16; 1985, c. 35, s. 36; 1986, c. 66, s. 5; 1988, c. 25, s. 50; 1995, c. 65, s. 117.

17. A board may lease or acquire property for the objects for which it is established, and entrust it to the carrier under contract with it. It may also make service contracts.

1983, c. 45, s. 17.

18. A board, by by-law approved by the Agence métropolitaine de transport, may make an agreement with any municipality whether or not its territory is situated within the territory of a board, with another board or a transit authority in order to improve the service offered to users.

1983, c. 45, s. 18; 1984, c. 47, s. 37; 1988, c. 25, s. 51; 1993, c. 67, s. 113; 1995, c. 65, s. 118; 1996, c. 2, s. 595.

18.1. Notwithstanding section 3, no board whose territory is wholly situated within the territory of another board may provide links to points outside its territory without the prior authorization of that other board.

1985, c. 35, s. 37.

18.2. Every draft by-law of a board providing for the establishment of links to any point within the territory of a public body providing public transport or for changes therein shall be sent to the public body and to each local municipality whose territory is comprised in the territory of the public body and is affected by the proposed route, at least 30 days before the date set for the adoption of the by-law.

1985, c. 35, s. 37; 1988, c. 25, s. 52; 1996, c. 2, s. 596.

18.3. In cases provided for in section 18.2, the board shall, when sending its by-law to the Agence métropolitaine de transport, attach to it a copy of the notices it has received from the transit authority and from municipalities to which the draft by-law has been sent.

1985, c. 35, s. 37; 1988, c. 25, s. 53; 1993, c. 67, s. 114; 1995, c. 65, s. 119.

18.4. The board may take any measure it considers appropriate to promote the organization and operation of public transport services not organized by the board itself and to supply support services to users and to organizers of such transport services.

1986, c. 66, s. 6.

DIVISION III RENEWAL AND EXPIRY

19. An agreement is renewed at term for the same period and on the same conditions, provided no application is made to the Government pursuant to sections 20 and 22.

1983, c. 45, s. 19.

20. Not later than 120 days before the end of an agreement, all the municipalities party to it that wish to renew it may apply to the Government by resolution of each of them, setting out the reasons for the application, to bring into the agreement

(1)  a municipality not listed in Schedule I, where the number of persons residing in the territory of that municipality who are using the public transport service is such that it would be equitable to include the municipality in the agreement;

(2)  another municipality if they are of the opinion that its inclusion is required in the interests of improved public transport service or lower operating costs.

The municipalities shall transmit the resolutions within 15 days of passage to the municipality they wish brought into the agreement. The latter municipality may apply to the Government, by a resolution setting out the reasons for the application, not to be brought into the agreement. It shall then transmit the resolution, within 15 days of passage, to the municipalities party to the agreement.

Not later than 120 days before the end of an agreement, a municipality party to it may, by by-law, apply to the Government to be left out of it on its renewal. It shall transmit the by-law within 15 days of passage to the other municipalities party to the agreement, and accompany the application to the Government with proof that the by-law has been so transmitted.

1983, c. 45, s. 20.

21. Within 30 days after receiving a by-law pursuant to the third paragraph of section 20, a municipality may apply to the Government to leave out or not to leave out the municipality in question when renewing the agreement. The application is made by resolution, setting out the reasons therefor.

1983, c. 45, s. 21.

22. Where, not later than 120 days before the end of an agreement, all the municipalities party to it notify the Government that they intend not to renew the agreement or to be left out of it, it is not renewed.

1983, c. 45, s. 22.

23. Except in the case of section 19 or 22, the Government, by order, may renew or not renew an agreement, and may, if it renews it, amend it to give effect to an application under section 20 to leave out a municipality or to bring a municipality not listed in Schedule I or another municipality into it.

The second and third paragraphs of section 8 apply to the renewal of an agreement when the Government brings a municipality not listed in Schedule I or another municipality into it.

1983, c. 45, s. 23.

24. If, at the term of an agreement, the Government has not decided whether or not to renew it, it is extended until the Government decides, but not beyond 60 days after the end of the agreement.

1983, c. 45, s. 24.

Where the service provides for links to any point outside its territory, in no case may the municipality make the contract without the prior authorization of the Agence métropolitaine de transport and of the board.

27.1. A municipality party to an agreement may, by resolution, request the board of which it is a member to organize in its territory a special transportation service for handicapped persons and to provide links to points outside the territory.

Where the board organizes such a service, it shall not be provided by anyone but a carrier or a person under contract with the board.

The municipality having made the request referred to in the first paragraph shall assume any deficit arising from the service.

1984, c. 23, s. 37; 1988, c. 25, s. 54.

27.2. Where the request referred to in section 27.1 is made by two or more municipalities, they shall make an agreement providing for the financial contribution of each municipality towards the organization of the service.

1984, c. 23, s. 37.

27.3. A municipality having availed itself of the first paragraph of section 27.1 may, if the board refuses to organize the service, make a contract with a carrier in accordance with section 467.11 of the Cities and Towns Act (chapter C-19) or article 536 of the Municipal Code of Québec (chapter C-27.1).

1988, c. 25, s. 55.

27.4. A municipality party to an agreement may also, with the authorisation of the Agence métropolitaine de transport, make a contract with a carrier, in accordance with section 467.7.4 of the Cities and Towns Act (chapter C-19) or article 532.4 of the Municipal Code of Québec (chapter C-27.1), to provide, on the occasion of a special event, in its territory, a temporary public transport service which does not compete with the service organized by the board or provided by a permit holder pursuant to his permit.

1988, c. 25, s. 55; 1995, c. 65, s. 121.

28. A municipality, upon passing a by-law pursuant to section 2, section 467 of the Cities and Towns Act (chapter C-19) or article 525 of the Municipal Code (chapter C-27.1), or a resolution pursuant to section 86, shall transmit a copy to the Commission des transports du Québec.

In addition, upon making any public transport contract except a contract under section 86, a municipality shall transmit a copy to the Commission.

1983, c. 45, s. 28.

29. From 1 January to 31 March 1984, any holder of a public transport permit may without formality operate a public transport service in the territory of a municipality if neither the municipality nor the board it belongs to is under contract with a carrier and if the municipality is not served by a public body providing public transport, and may also provide links to points outside the territory of the municipality.

1983, c. 45, s. 29.

30. The Commission des transports du Québec may grant a special permit to allow the operation of a public transport service from 1 April to 31 December 1984 in the territory of a municipality that has not passed a by-law to become a member of a board or a by-law or resolution to contract with a carrier and that is not served by a public body providing public transport.

1983, c. 45, s. 30.

31. The holder of a special public transport permit shall cease to operate the public transport service in a municipality upon being informed by the Commission des transports du Québec that the municipality or the board it belongs to is under contract with a carrier.

The permit is then revoked and the carrier is not entitled to any compensation for that fact.

1983, c. 45, s. 31.

32. The Commission des transports du Québec may convert a special permit into a regular public transport permit for the territory of a municipality that, on 31 December 1984, is neither a member of a board nor under contract with a carrier.

1983, c. 45, s. 32.

33. Subject to section 32, the Commission des transports du Québec may issue a public transport permit to serve, from 1 January 1985, the territory of a municipality that is not a member of a board nor under contract with a carrier and that is not served by a public body providing public transport.

1983, c. 45, s. 33.

If the board does not indicate its refusal to the Commission des transports du Québec within 60 days after the Commission’s application for authorization, it is presumed to have given its authorization.

This section does not apply in the case of a cancellation or reduction of service or in the case of the establishment of a new service which does not compete with the public transport service organized by the board.

1985, c. 35, s. 39; 1986, c. 66, s. 7.
