ERO 013-4293
Schedule 10 of Bill 66 is very scary.

A developer, with the votes of a few councilors, whom he/she may of contributed to their reelection expenses, can put a chemical plant, or a feed lot, next to my house which I bought putting my faith in the provincial plans and municipal zoning to be in a pleasant residential neighborhood. I would have no input or appeal. If my well gets polluted do I sue the town or the province for allowing an activity that good policy and planning knew to be unsuited for that location?

What will be the point of any planning or protective legislation if a speculator can plop any factory anywhere with a promise of jobs? What if he plops it where a highway was planned?

I strongly oppose Schedule 10 of Bill 66 and the open-for-business by-laws.
