I strongly do not agree with the proposed changes outlined in the amendments of the greenbelt plan. There are many areas in these cities where redevelopment of unused/underused areas is long overdue and more relevant than new development that involves taking away green spaces. This includes the underutilized industrial office spaces, parking lots and buildings that remain vacant as the way people work evolves. This removal of certain greenbelt zones and expansion of other zones is quite contradictory to each other because you emphasize the positives of expanding greenbelts to have a great impact on water systems, agriculture and biodiversity, while at the same time, make it sound like development on the greenbelt will have no impact on the environment. Please be respectful of your future generations and the horrors they are likely to face due because of the decisions you make today without consideration for long-term impacts this will have on the environment.
