This proposed amendment is unacceptable. There is more than enough room for intensification within current city boundaries. We do not need to eat into the green belt when we are facing a climate crisis. This amendment only serves wealthy developers who are capitalizing on land speculation.

This solution to the need for housing is like needing a fire extinguisher and instead using kerosene.
