As a long-time taxpayer in Ontario, I am extremely pleased that Bill 136, the Greenbelt Statute Law Amendment Act, has been proposed. I support it completely and want to emphasize that these points be made strongly in the Bill:
Please ensure that the '10 year Greenbelt Reviews' can only add lands to the Greenbelt with NO land removals or land swaps; there is MEANINGFUL public consultation - no silencing by illegal MZO use, etc.;
that “Pay to Slay” that enables habitat destruction of species at risk in the Greenbelt is completely prohibited; that the licensing of new aggregate extraction permits in the Greenbelt is completely prohibited; that all Prime Agricultural lands in the Greenbelt are completely protected through Conservation Easements; and that the grandfathering of previous zoning for development applications within the Greenbelt is not permitted ever again.
Thank you.
