This is an add-on for the in-depth review of comments in support of ERO Number 019-6216, related to previously submitted Comment Id’s 66031 and 68145.

1. This comment, in the attached MS-Word Supporting Document, adds a useful map that shows underground infrastructure (water, sewers and Bell lines) within the vicinity of - and in - the Mass Transit Station Area (MTSA) of the Grimsby GO Train Station. This in support of our request to merge an additional parcel of land for Greenbelt Removal.

See Supporting Document attached for description and map.

2. Also, in Comment Id 66031 the MS-Word attached Supporting Document requires a correction. On page 5 of the Final-PresentationMPP.doc There was a mistake presented in the number of hectares reported that the Town of Grimsby wanted to swap in their 2016 proposal. On Page 5 it indicated the request was to swap out 100 hectares of Greenbelt land for 150 hectares not in Greenbelt. In fact, the request was to swap out 250 hectares of Greenbelt land for 923 hectares not in Greenbelt. A swap of land at almost a 4 to 1 to increase the Greenbelt size and where "The provincial decision was to add the 923-hectare parcel into the Greenbelt but to deny removing any lands what-so-ever from within the Greenbelt in Grimsby. The result was Grimsby now has virtually no land available outside the Greenbelt to develop as a result of this decision."

See Supporting Document attached for map that shows the actual lands with sizes.
