I vote NO for these MZOs, which 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! Read more

This project would overwhelm the area and create traffic chaos. It doesn’t make sense to impose a project against the will of the community that will severely negatively impact the quality of life for town residents.

With a condo market bottoming out, building more condos to take up space is not a good fit for Oakville. We already have one condo project started that went bankrupt and is now just an empty lot with a fence around it. Read more

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

My wife and I have lived in Oakville since 1987. We are impressed in the manner in which the Town has grown such that it maintained its community appeal while experiencing significant population increases. Read more

The Town of Oakville has put forward a balanced growth plan. What the Province is putting forward from a height and density perspective is completely against what is right for the Town! Read more

We have overwhelming concern for this plan. The MZOs would impose excessive density in Midtown without adequate infrastructure, overwhelming already strained roads, transit, the GO station, and the QEW. Read more

I don't know why such a mega density project is being considered for a pretty small parcel of land. As i will probably be considering downsizing in the next 10 years the project as proposed would have zero interest as a possible new home. Read more

The proposed TOC for Midtown in Oakville is ridiculous. One has only to look at existing traffic snarls to see that increasing the density to the proposed level is completely untenable. Read more

Please approve the Town of Oakville’s Official Plan Amendment for Midtown (OPA 70). It was developed transparently with public input and Council approval. I will not vote for a party that goes forward with a seriously flawed product. Read more

Have we learned anything from the chaos in the Liberty village highrise hell? Oakville opposes the TOC because: The MZOs would force the same extreme and reckless density on Midtown Oakville. There is not enough below-market, supportive, family-sized or subsidized housing. Read more
