Your government has said you’re trying to help farmers allow their adult children build homes and raise families on their family farms… what we need are severances. A plot of land sits on our farm where there used to be a farm house… we can’t sever the land but it can only be used to build on.

I am against taking any land out of the Greenbelt. There should be no further land developed until all the available land within the cities are used. The new homes that are built should be apartments and geared to income housing. The development should be along public transit corridors.

It is with great regret that a small group of farm interest groups can control a goverment on the farm severances. I hope and pray that doug finds a way to allow many farm familys to allow there kids to have a home in the country.

As a 30 year resident of Peel Township (now part of Mapleton) I understand and value the preservation of contiguous prime agricultural and environmentally sensitive land. I also believe that restricting farming practices primarily because of neighbouring residential development is unproductive.

You absolutely cannot pretend to show concern for reduction of greenhouse gasses while annihilating thousands of acres of prime agricultural land that were PROTECTED under an act of the previous government.

Why not first consider allowing new severances on older farm surplus severance properties? Some of the older farm surplus severances are multiple acres and can easily be divided into more residential lots without removing more farmland from vital farming areas.

As a farmer, with 33 acres of deemed prime agricultural land, we are in favour of allowing farmers to sever building lots for the purpose of providing residential land to immediate family members. Although farm associations like OFA oppose, we as members of OFA were never consulted.
