We need our Oak Ridges Moraine and wetlands to be protected from development so they can handle rain and snow melt before flooding occurs. We are paving over the lands that protect us and provide for us by managing water, by growing our food and by cleaning our air.

We do not need sprawl, we need better use of the land we are already using for residential and commercial buildings. Work on transit, density and repurposing existing buildings. There is room for more density in the cities we have now.

The proposed amendments to the Greenbelt Area boundary regulation are an egregious, short-sighted travesty:

Earlier this year, I submitted comments to the ERO on a proposed amendment to the Greenbelt Plan regarding growing the size of the Greenbelt (ERO # 019-4485).

I am opposed to the proposed changes to the Greenbelt Plan that would remove or redesignate 15 areas of land and add lands in the Paris Galt Moraine area, and redesignate lands in the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan.

This will NOT solve housing issues. But it will destroy precious land and my children’s future. I cannot see these proposed changes as anything but short-sighted, selfish, immediate gains for very few, with long term harm to the majority.

I would like to state my opposition to the removal of lands from the Greenbelt Area and to the redesignation of land in the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan Area if this will permit new development.

I’m writing to you today in support of the Greenbelt, Conservation Authorities and Ontario’s wetlands, woodlands and other natural areas.
Firstly, I am writing to state my opposition to the proposal to remove 7,400 acres of land from the Greenbelt, which was revealed on November 4.

Green belt spaces are essential to the health of our communities and ecosystem, which is exactly why they were made protected lands in the first place. I strongly oppose any development being allowed on Greenbelt lands.

I am strongly against the proposed amendments to the greenbelt regulations. It will cause more harm than good. This has been poorly thought out and reeks of corruption.
