Remove Schedule 10 from Bill…

Remove Schedule 10 from Bill 66, which allows municipalities to override provisions in the Greenbelt Act, Clean Water Act, Lake Simcoe Act, Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Act and Great Lakes Protection Act.

This is dangerous, especially since there doesn't seem to be any mechanisms in place to help municipalities deal with this change. You're going to have neighbouring municipalities with a diverse patchwork of development. Some are going to go too far with this and we'll end up with very poor planning decisions, especially with regards to the environment.

This also flies in the face of what your current government did with the Green Energy Act. The wind turbines were placed without the people having a say according to your government. Well, that's what is going to happen with this bill, developments will be pushed through without adhering to official plans and zoning. On top of this, it appears that there will be no way for people to repeal this.

I'm putting this in on my behalf and my future children.
