I am a 20 year resident of Newmarket Ontario. I strongly oppose Bill 66 because it will allow municipalities to circumvent local planning and provincial bylaws. Of specific concern is the fact that the bill exposes protected areas in Ontario such as the Oak Ridges Moraine and the Greenbelt to development.

While I am not opposed to development and expansion of business and residential areas, I ask that the government amend this Bill so as to prevent development on environmentally sensitive areas such as (but not limited to) those identified above.
