The endless labyrinth of bureaucratic processes, exemplified by unnecessary delays like a non-legally required public comment period for a crucial housing MZO, isn't just an inconvenience—it's a direct assault on the well-being of the very citizens these systems are meant to serve.

As a Hamiltonian that has worked in schools with low income families like Bennetto Elementary Public School, I know that approving the Jamesville project to go forward would directly impact the community in a positive way.

Omg, please authorize and/or issue an approval order to allow the City of Hamilton to proceed with redeveloping the currently derelict Jamesville property into housing. There's a major housing here like everywhere else across this province and it's desperately required.

As someone raised in the central riding, and who chooses to make a life here as an adult resident, it’s appalling that this has been an issue for this long. All levels of government need to mobilize to address affordable housing issues, and largely agree than this is the case.

This housing development is severely needed in the City of Hamilton. There a thousands of people experiencing homelessness or on the verge of becoming homeless.

I fully support the proposed development at 405 James Street North under Minister’s Zoning Order 025-0807. This plan makes excellent use of an idle and partially demolished property, and transforms it into a vibrant residential area with much-needed housing.

The Jamesville site has been sitting vacant for far too long and should be developed as soon as possible. The possible risk of noise from the CN rail station does not outweigh the positive impact the housing development will have on the hamilton community.
Please Please Please make this happen.
We are in a housing crisis and this housing complex that could incredibly needed, wanted and could help hundreds of people.

Please make this housing complex happen. We are all sick of seeing this houseing complex sit empty for over ten years while the numbers of homeless people rise.
Speaking for myself and our staff members of Coven Market - we are all in favor of this proposal going through. We support our city making the right steps in developing Jamesville for housing.
This proposal helps the Federal & Provincial Governments plans to expedite development of needed affordable housing & has been proposed by the City of Burlington for 10 years.

As a local resident a few blocks from the proposed development, I am wholeheartedly in favour of moving forward with the proposal. It is past due!

This property has been an eyesore for too many years. The site is partially demolished and a perfect opportunity to address housing shortages. I agree with the City of Hamilton for requesting an MZO.

The fact that this has gone on this long is an absolute disgrace to Hamilton and Ontario in general. How can you (the government) allow something like this to just sit here for so long. You should look at yourself and be ashamed.
Get to work for god sake.

Fix any contamination present and put the housing back there.
Hamilton has already been torn to shreds by other major corporations and the low income (affordable or social) housing sector has taken the brunt of it.
Homelessness in hamilton has grown unchecked.
