I do not support Bill 66.
It gives Municipalities the power to over-ride many of the environmental protections already in existence for the watershed, greenbelt and groundwater etc.
These potential "Open for Business" local laws could:
- proceed without adhering to provincial policies and provincial plans
-bypass the Planning Act and the Provincial Policy Statement, which says "Significant built heritage resources and significant cultural heritage landscapes shall be conserved."
-not need to follow local Official Plans
-not be appealed to the Local Planning Appeals Tribunal (the successor to the Ontario Municipal Board)
-can proceed without the public being given notice of the development proposal

This is undemocratic and is undermining the precedence of community consultation and undermines established Laws, Acts and Plans.

Stop Bill 66
