Not to be left behind...


"A provincial tribunal that rules on land-use disputes delivered a setback to the Region of Waterloo’s efforts to curb urban sprawl.

The Ontario Municipal Board handed down a complex decision on Jan. 21 that requires the region to significantly expand the amount of land that will be developed into new subdivisions between now and 2031.

The Region of Waterloo wanted to limit the new subdivisions to 80 hectares (197 acres) of land. But the municipal board ruled in favour of the developers who said they need more like 1,053 hectares (2,593 acres) of land."
