We do not need MZOs to permit insanely dense building in Oakville near the GO. The density proposed is off the charts insane! Makes Hong Kong look like Regina. Let’s please stick with the well thought out OPA 70!

These MZOs would force extreme and reckless density on Midtown, more than double that of any comparable development in the GTA, without the infrastructure to support it; creating chaos and overwhelming transportation and services that are already overstressed, including local roads, transit, the GO Read more

The economic and viability case for these MZOs and this project has collapsed. The condominium market has both collapsed and shifted, with the market no longer supporting high rise projects dominated by studios and one-bedroom units, which is the configuration this TOC proposes. Read more

These MZOs represent a profound override of local democracy despite Oakville’s full compliance with provincial policies and proven track record of growth and housing development. Read more

These MZOs are proposing density rates higher than New York City - outrageous! Plus, the town of Oakville and its CITIZENS have proposed an alternative that meets the province’s needs AND the town’s needs - why would a provincial government not accept this Win-Win solution? Read more

The Town of Oakville has offered their proposal and they would know best. Why is it that perfect strangers, who by the way do NOT reside in Oakville, have any say on how our town should grow. Read more

This Transit-Oriented Community (TOC) fails to comply with Premier Ford’s Build Homes Faster agenda and will not deliver a single home before 2031, the Province’s own housing deadline, and will take 25 years to complete. OPA70 is a better alternative and is ready to go. Read more
