I am a 30+ year resident of Oakville. I am very opposed to the Province of Ontario using a MZO to force an ultra high density project into a town that does not need such a type of housing in an area that lacks the infrastructure to support such a project. Also, the economic case for a project like this is based on outdated temporary economic conditions caused by improper immigration management by the Federal government, Specific to this project and similar projects and the use of MZOs, the condominium market has both collapsed and shifted, with the market no longer supporting high rise projects dominated by studios and one-bedroom units, which is the configuration this TOC proposes. Oakville needs family-oriented, complete-community housing, not investor-driven micro-units that do not support long term families. The project will not proceed for at least five years, so there is no urgency or justification for imposing these MZOs now. Their only effect is to lock in inflated land values for the developer. IO should pause, shut down this TOC, withdraw the MZOs, and proceed with OPA 70, that is a responsible, deliverable, community-supported plan that is aligned with the changing market. I vote NO for these MZOs, and will also vote provincially accordingly.
