The Town of Midland…

The Town of Midland respectfully requests that the following be considered in the review of OPA 7:

1. Criteria for consideration of alternative uses to natural heritage designation when it has been demonstrated there are no natural heritage features or related negative impacts and where Provincial Policy Statement and related requirements fulfilled

2. Additional population and employment allocation

3. Potential future near term settlement boundary expansion where cost effectiveness of infrastructure servicing expansion is constrained by land supply and land use constraints
