Rives du lac St-Charles: l'appel des propriétaires rejeté

(Québec) La Cour d'appel rejette le pourvoi d'un groupe de propriétaires riverains et confirme la validité du Règlement sur la renaturalisation des berges du lac Saint-Charles, adopté par la Ville de Québec afin de préserver la qualité de l'eau provenant de sa principale source d'approvisionnement.

Un premier jugement rendu en avril 2010 en Cour supérieure avait donné raison à la Ville de Québec.
