Help Us Get a Fair Review

Ask the Province to review the Town-backed MZO request on its merits — not as a general Greenbelt question, but as a specific mapping correction.

The Ask

A Specific and Reasonable Request

Please review the Town-backed MZO request on its merits, including the established commercial history of the property and the planned residential and mixed-use transition around it.

Step 2

Use These Talking Points

Copy any of the paragraphs below and paste them into your message. Each point is written to be sent as-is.

This is not a request to reopen the Greenbelt. It is a request to address a specific mapping anomaly backed by the local municipality.

The property has had commercial use since the 1960s, and the current family has operated the business for more than 40 years.

The surrounding area is moving toward residential and mixed-use growth. The family is asking for a fair ability to participate in that planned transition.

A general statement about not reopening the Greenbelt does not answer the specific question of how a documented mapping anomaly should be corrected.

Please review the Town-backed MZO request on its merits and identify a fair process for resolving the issue.

FAQ

Common Questions

Does this threaten the Greenbelt?
No. This is about correcting a specific mapping anomaly. It would not remove protections from the broader Greenbelt. The family supports the Greenbelt as a concept.
Is this a development proposal?
No. The ask is for a fair review of a Town-backed mapping correction request. The family is asking to participate in the same planned transition already happening around their property.
Why hasn't the Province acted?
The Province responded with a general Greenbelt position rather than addressing the specific Town-backed request on its merits. A targeted response is still needed.

Help Correct the Record

We are asking Minister Rob Flack to order a formal review of this Greenbelt boundary mapping error. A correction would adjust a single line on a map — not remove land from the Greenbelt.
