Hello I have a 25.9 acre farm, I want to be able to sever off a couple of acres for my son and daughter as they cannot afford to buy a house at the current prices!! I'm in Wellington county as you know it's deemed prime agricultural land, I called county office and pretty much got told there would be no way to get land severd off to build houses for my son 28 and daughter 29! It's really depressing to think my husband and I will have to die and leave inheritance before they can afford a home!!
So I'm pleading that when you make new provisions in September for allowing 2 to 3 duelings on farmland that you make it that the land can be severd off legally so we can have separate lots and equity.
It's so important to make sure our children can obtain financial independence and this is a big step towards their future !!
I do understand its important to protect farmland however in our case we are a small parcel of land, maybe allow municpalities to make exceptions on smaller parcels of land to be able to sever and not make us part of the greater large farms.
Thankyou
