I'm not very good with …

I'm not very good with "legalese" so am lucky that a friend went over this document with me, and I was rather appalled at what I found hidden there as I'm very much interested in protecting our land and water as climate change continues. Here are some of the things I believe need to change in PPS document -
- Section 2.3 should retain mandated intensification targets for increased housing, and should incorporate language minimizing environmental effects of expanded housing development.
- Municipal growth plans should always include comprehensive municipal review, and protect farmland and greenfield sites.
-MZO's must be consistent with provincial policies and with municipal official plans.
And when it comes to the issue of water usage the PPS must -
Continue to prohibit water pipelines to take Great Lake Water to inland municipalities.
Continue to require environmental assessments for sewer/water infrastructure for urban boundary expansions.
Enable Conservation Authorities to prepare watershed plans.
Continue to require watershed plans in advance of urban boundary expansions.
