Comment
- It is good to see the absurd Community Infrastructure and Housing Accelerator (CHIA) introduced by Bill 109 rescinded.
- In the Region of Waterloo, the Countryside Line must remain intact, and forced boundary expansions must be eliminated. The Region of Waterloo's Planning Authority should be retained, given its excellent sustainability emphasis and the focus on being able to live happily without car-dependency.
- If Planning Authority is removed from the Region of Waterloo, then Greenbelt expansion is required to adequately protect the Waterloo Moraine, and then changes to Settlement Area Boundaries should not be permitted outside of regular municipal comprehensive review periods,
- Planning Act Sections dealing with limiting Third Party Appeals should be rescinded just as they were when Bill 23 attempted to limit eliminate these important citizen rights,
- The Attorney General should disclose all communications with municipalities and developers requesting changes to third party appeal rights,
- The Ontario Land Tribunal (OLT) should be required to permit third party appeals,
