Bill 66 allows any municipality to override the laws that protect our water, agriculture, and natural areas without any public meetings, notice to impacted land owners, or consultations.
These “Open for Business By-laws” could overrule and completely ignore the Clean Water Act, the Greenbelt Act, the Great Lakes Protection Act, the Growth Plan, and many other essential protections we count on daily for human health and co-ordinated local planning. Bill 66 exemptions totally bypass all upper-tier regional involvement and don’t have to be in conformity with any local Official Plans or regulations. In its current form, there is no recourse or ability to appeal a Bill 66 bylaw to the OMB or new LPAT.
To me, this disregards my health, my environment, and my rights to participate as a citizen in land-use change decisions.
Some councils (e.g. Waterloo) have already voted that they will be rejecting Schedule 10 of the bill, but many have not.
Please stop Bill 66.
