Comment
A former MOE Minister enacted a law that defined stormwater as a sewage. That law created an immediate response that in the words of a MOE staff member who stated that "we have rooms stacked full of ECA applications." The time frame for making and approving ECA immediately became a minimum of one year to obtain approval.
Currently local professionals designing and reviewing stormwater management designs are taking the objectives to unnecessary extremes.
The current proposal should reduce the wait times for creating the much needed residential units in new development projects.
