Protection of the moraine is essential for the quantity of water supply and
the quality of the water. The modification to the urban boundary to include the region's aquifers will have a negative impact on access to ground water and farmland. This could lead to a reduced amount of
water supply to support future homes. Development could also degrade water
quality at urban well fields due to road salt application, which could result in the
loss of available urban water supplies, further restricting growth. This would actually have the opposite impact of building new homes possible, without additional financial impacts to waterloo region residents. I am writing in opposition to this change and I ask the province to reconsider it.
