Sensitive Agricultural lands, watershed, greenspace, forests, etc. absolutely need to be preserved for the longevity of life. If we don't preserve these areas, they will disappear and never come back.

Development can easily happen on marginal lands outside of the sensitive areas.

Absolutely we need housing, but not necessarily single detached houses that carry massive footprints in development.

What consideration has there been for the targets and "Official Plans" already set by local municipalities and how do they factor into the total calculations?

We don't need more subdivisions dependent on cars. We need smarter developments that depend on public transportation, mixed use areas, smaller micro communities within larger developments. Our model of development is driven by profits, not always what makes sense.
