I am very concerned about this proposal to limit the approving abilities of Conservation Authorities.
CAs play an important role in Natural Heritage protection at the local level, which is critical in this age of climate change, biodiversity loss and overall environmental degradation. CAs have the understanding and experience to be able to balance development and environmental protection, which will otherwise be lacking. I understand the frustration of a slow approval process but limiting the power of conservation authorities to allow for more rapid development is a step in the wrong direction.
