Hands off our Greenbelt we need the land to feed us and the wildlife around us. Loosing any Greenbelt and repackaging wetlands that are difficult to develop and saying you are actually offering us more Greenbelt land is preposterous! Please let the citizens of my city direct public service and not the other way around. Hamiltons citizens wants the brown-spaces within the city developed before development is extended to farmland and green spaces. We have spoken out and now the province wants to take over. We don’t want that kind of development period. We want housing but not at the cost of building more roads and infrastructure we don’t need yet until all else has been done to build inside the existing city limits. Such as building below ground parking garages over existing parking lots, so people may live above in multi floored town homes or condos that can house larger families more densely. We need the city’s near empty commercial spaces in the downtown turned into housing. There are options available that are not going to cost us the farmland that can feed us in the future.
