I live in Ubridge Ontario. There are a large number of properties in the green belt that are used for purely residential purposes. My property is 10 acres and i want to subdivide it into 1 - 5 acre property and then a 2 acre property and 3 acre property. I want to have the option to build homes for my family or sell the land for somewhere for someone to live. The region of durham as a rule that only 100 acre properties can be subdivided. The current regulations are old, there no reason why smaller properties cant be subdivided. I would like to be able to subdivide my property of 10 acres into 3 lots and that should be allowed. Housing in durham is hard to come by but there are many large properties like mine that could be further divided and bring more homes to Uxbridge and still maintain large lots. Please change the rules so even rural housing is available to grow, not just in cities or in town borders but there are many opportunities for housing even in rural durham and uxbridge. That is my request.
