What legislation is there to guarantee that developers build as early as 2023 and not later than 2025? In the description, it says there is an "expectation" to build as soon as possible. This should be legislated, and not "expected."

I'm not in favour of 2 of the parcels benig redesignated. There are 2 pieces within the protected Rouge River Valley in Markham. Access to these pieces will further erode greenblet protection. It is also unlikely that these parcels would alleviate any shortfall in the housing supply, especially because they would be very unlikely to hold mid-density homes.

There should also be further clearance to the west of Duffins creek. There are parts of the valley walls that lose up to a meter per year. Larger setbacks of several hundred meters are required to support the valley walls, and to filter and slow down run off.
