Memo from Mayor West re: Commission on Planning and
Development Reform in Ontario
#149. Moved by Councillor Griffith Seconded by Councillor Constable
WHEREAS the Council of the Town of Aurora has reviewed the contents
of the draft report of the Commission on Planning and Development
Reform in Ontario.
AND WHEREAS the Council understands that one of the recommendations
of the report is that a Provincial Planning Advisory Committee be
established to set planning policy for the Province.
AND WHEREAS the Commission during its public input process purported
that its intent is that planning approvals and local policy development should
be at municipal levels of government.
AND WHEREAS the Council of the Town of Aurora is concerned that
there must be a commitment at the Provincial level of government to allow
municipalities to plan their own community.
AND WHEREAS the Council of the Town of Aurora does not believe the
approval powers will be delegated from the Provincial level of government
which administers this process in a tardy and cumbersome manner:
NOW THEREFORE the Council of the Town of Aurora resolves:
THAT the Commission on Planning and Development Reform in
Ontario be advised that the Council of the Town of Aurora has
serious reservations about the Commission's recommendations
primarily because it does believe that the Province will implement
delegation of approvals but will continue through the suggested
Provincial Planning Advisory Committee to impose policies on
municipalities which do not represent the views of the public in those
communities.
