Regarding the four MZO's:
These MZOs represent a profound override of local democracy despite Oakville’s full compliance with provincial policies and proven track record of growth and housing development. The Town’s Official Plan Amendment for Midtown (OPA 70) was developed transparently, with public input and Council approval. In contrast, the TOC was advanced behind closed doors under confidentiality agreements, striving a predetermined developer driven plan with superficial consultation. This misuse of provincial power resembles the governance failures exposed in the Greenbelt scandal, where planning regulations were overridden to benefit private interests. The Province should not repeat that mistake by going forward with a bad product produced by a seriously flawed process. I vote NO for these MZOs.
Do the right thing, accept and adhere to the Council-approved plan for Midtown — OPA 70. Anything less is a betrayal of the people of Ontario and there will be future consequences!
Sincerely, Registered Member.
