The 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

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

My comments are regarding the MZO's for the Transit-Oriented Community in the Town of Oakville: I would ask that close attention be paid to the density proposed and the effects that it will have on an already congested area. Read more

So many of our friends and neighbors have left because of poor governance and now to propose a crazy density project that no one agrees with except those making MORE money. Read more

Local planning decisions should be respected. They are based on an in-depth knowledge of community needs, norms and infrastructure. They should NOT be overturned by provincial edicts.
