The Ministry is seeking input on whether this request should be considered and any additional information that may help inform the Minister’s decision-making.

Why consultation isn't required

Part II of the Environmental Bill of Rights Act, 1993 does not apply to proposals to make a Minister’s Zoning Order (MZO) under subsection 47(1) of the Planning Act, or to amend or revoke an MZO under subsection 47(8) of the Planning Act.

Although not required, the ministry is providing public notice of this request for consultation.

Proposal details

A Minister’s Zoning Order, made pursuant to clause 47(1)(a) of the Planning Act, regulates the use of land and the erection, location and use of any building or structure on the land.

The Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing is considering a request from the Town of Innisfil to make a Minister’s Zoning Order at 255 Reive Boulevard in Innisfil. If made, the requested Minister’s Zoning Order would permit a commercial development consisting of a casino and hotel and help facilitate the relocation of Gateway Casinos Innisfil, pending other necessary approvals.

The Subject Lands are approximately 10.2 hectares and are located at the southeast corner of the 2nd Line and Reive Boulevard. They were part of the former Innisfil Creek Golf Course.

To help ensure decisions are made in a transparent manner and support government priorities, the Ministry is seeking feedback on whether this request should be considered and any additional information that may help inform a decision.
