Good afternoon,
Please find attached the Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO) Submission to ERO 019-6216: Consultation on Proposed Amendments to the Greenbelt Plan.
Thank you.
While I appreciate the proposal to expand the overall area of the greenbelt to offset the proposed removals; I don't think this is the best approach as it could send the message that the shape/locations of the greenbelt could change at whim as long as the overall area expands.

Please don't be so short-sighted as to destroy land that will be needed for future food supplies and to limit damage from climate change. This action will hurt both current and future generations. Please drop this proposal and instead increase housing densities on currently built-up areas.
LEAVE THE GREENBELT ALONE!!!!!!!!! You’re destroying incredibly valuable and irreplaceable species diversity, not to mention carbon sinks that would soak up at least some of the insane levels of pollution that come from residential development.

Bill 23 will bring irrevocable damage to the Greenbelt — which Premier promised to leave untouched. In the middle of a climate crisis, we cannot afford to be attacking wetlands, farmlands or our water.

The Ontario Conservative Party was not elected to build houses on Greenbelt land and farmland and destroy the environment for future generations. In fact it promised the exact opposite prior to being elected. A clear promise was made by Doug Ford that the Greenbelt would not be touched.

Strongly and vehemently disagree with bringing land in the Town of Erin into the Greenbelt. These lands are already adequately protected by the existing Official Plan policies of the Town and County!!!! This cannot go forward.

Please protect the greenbelt and advocate for sustainable and thoughtful development that supports healthy and green communities not just lining the pockets of developers.
We must immediately stop developing and paving over the greenbelt if we want to continue to have access to clean water and food in this province.

I would like to comment on the disastrous Bill 23 proposal to remove greenbelt land. There are many reasons why this is a terrible idea for Toronto and for Ontario. For example:

We have already agreed the Greenbelt is to be protected for the coming generation. Unchecked development will destroy a fragile environment and cause overgrowth and many other unforeseen problems.

We are strongly opposed to the proposed amendments to the Greenbelt plan. Building houses in the Greenbelt will not make them more affordable nor will the Greenbelt location address where people need to live (in cities near services)!

This plan is irresponsible to the development of a greener economy. We live in a world that is rapidly coming to the end of a climate crisis and not in the good way. If you want to develop more housing, look at abandoned buildings, cities, etc.

Any built use of designated Greenbelt land is unnecessary and harmful. Expanded urban sprawl is not the solution to our housing crisis and the deleterious effects of the government’s proposed actions under Bill 23 will ripple and magnify in the years to come.

The government states that the goal of the More Homes Built Faster plan is to address the housing crisis by building 1.5 million homes over the next 10 years.
