I am concerned specifically with Schedule 10 allowing municipalities a way to circumvent environmental protection of our greenbelt, fresh water supply and other vulnerable areas. Any changes must protect our environment, regardless of the cost to municipalities. There are many areas of our province where it is nearly impossible to grow crops due to the type of soil. Government needs to step up with an overall plan to develop these wastelands instead of allowing municipalities to act in silos, doing whatever they want.
Make the people move to jobs, instead of creating jobs on prime farmland and sensitive ecosystem areas. Just because someone wants to live somewhere doesn't mean we should create a job for them there.
Our government needs to be environmentally responsible and stop the sprawl!
