I am extremely disturbed by the proposed changes to the Planning Act that would allow municipalities to pass "open for business" zoning by-laws. If I am reading this correctly, these areas would not be bound by the part of the greenbelt act on protecting the integrity of the greenbelt? This goes against a directly stated campaign promise to preserve the greenbelt from development in it's entirety. Also exempt is section 39 of the clean water act, which was created in response to the poor regulations that caused the Walkerton tragedy. I am absolutely in shock that these (and more) important regulations that will protect the environment for myself and my family are being overruled.
