The prohibitions and restrictions that are associated with the Greenbelt have been put in place for a reason, to protect areas that are sensitive to development. To disregard the wisdom of those who seek to protect our wetlands, farmlands and recreational lands - the Conservation Authorities - is irresponsible. Our land does not act in isolation - the effect of development, including the 413, will be felt 'downstream'. This is something that politicians fail to recognize: the ecosystem doesn't care where political boundaries are drawn.
If Mr. Ford wants to house more people, he could start by raising taxes on the speculators, or maybe address inconsistencies in the application of current Building Codes. Allow smaller homes where rules require a minimum building size. Building more sprawl is not the answer. That model doesn't work.
We have enough land in the Province set aside for building already without touching our Greenbelt.
Yes, add the proposed land to our Greenbelt; just leave the existing Greenbelt land alone."
