The Ontario Greenbelt Alliance has issued a report card on how municipalities are addressing sprawl in their official plans. See page 9 for the report on Brant County. [Download a copy]
“Sustainable Brant”: a group of residents from Brant County committed to supporting local food & healthy communities, fostering integrated rural/urban planning, protecting prime farmland & preventing urban sprawl.
We call upon the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing to include Brant County in the Greenbelt in order to protect prime farmland, wetlands and the Galt-Paris moraine and natural areas. We ask that the Ministry consider this request from residents, citizen groups and conservation bodies.
