ReplyDeleteHuge boundary expansion
Jul 12, 2017
The city is pushing ahead with a huge urban boundary expansion onto farmland in upper Stoney Creek. And despite long-standing provincial government opposition, city officials say the Elfrida Growth Area is not open to challenge and is necessary to accommodate expected population increases.
The 3100 acre (1256 hectare) parcel south of Rymal Road and east of Upper Centennial is more than twice the size of the aerotropolis expansion approved three years ago. It’s also considerably bigger than the Stoney Creek Urban Boundary Expansion (SCUBE) finalized a decade ago. At its maximum, the L-shaped parcel is more than 5 km long and 4 km wide.

The City has long ago sold out to developers. The Winona area is a precious micro climate geared to farming. The City is about to destroy it. Part of the culture of low expectations. We will never be a great city with such terrible decisions.
