I live in Woodslee in…

I live in Woodslee in Southwestern Ontario. I am writing this comment with the hope that the province can give municipalities more flexibilty when it comes to in fill lots in the rural area. In my situation we have a double lot 300 feet by 300 feet. There is 5 houses in a row to the west of me with the open portion of my property then my curent house. This open portion is zoned agriculture so I am unable to build a house for one of my sons here. This propety has not been farmed for more then 65 years and will never be farmed again due to the size and the fact there is houses on all sides of this property. With the major shortagein housing it makes no sense that we can not do these in fill lots that would not take any farm land out of production and help solve are housing issue in a responsible manor. I have spoken with my local municipality as well as my local councilman on this issue and they tell me there is nothing they can do tell the province changes the rules with the zoning. I would just like to finish by saying I know am not the only locally in this sitution and I believe that there are most likely thousands of these lots across the province that witha little tweaking on your end it would allow municipalities to open up thousands of lots to build homes to help with the shortage of housing. Thank you for your Time
