Ontario auditor general investigating government’s use of zoning tool to override municipalities
Ontario’s auditor general has confirmed it is investigating the government’s use of Minister’s Zoning Orders (MZO) to open up development opportunities in the province while overriding local approval processes.www.cp24.com
Will be interesting to see whether they end up walking back the mzo as a result of this. Iirc, lcpl includes developers that were involved in the greenbelt debacle.
Ford government removes 50-storey Mississauga tower from MZO amid Pearson Airport concerns
Months after Ontario moved to fast-track redevelopment of a Mississauga plaza, the MZO was revoked after Pearson Airport intervened.

"During the same meeting, Ward 1 Coun. Stephen Dasko successfully called for a review of the MZO granted at the Lakeview Village development site at 1082 Lakeshore Rd. E."

Of course Dasko did. He’s a massive NIMBY.Ford government removes 50-storey Mississauga tower from MZO amid Pearson Airport concerns

Letter by LCPL president (Sutherland) suggested that pre-mzo the pier didn't have the necessary funding and only with the granting of the MZO can it now be funded. Interpret how you will. Separately Tridel has been sending out addendums to some of the floors in harbourwalk, changing the design to replace a lot of the 2bdrm units with additional 1bdr units. Total unit count in building 1 is now up to 455.

The 2 bedroom units are probably too expensive for anyone to be able to afford...

Ford government considering reversing Peel Region split decision: sources | Globalnews.ca
In May, the province announced it would split Brampton, Caledon and Mississauga into separate cities and dissolve the Region of Peel by 2025.
globalnews.ca
"At the same time, the government is also expected to reverse other decisions made by former housing minister Steve Clark before his resignation over the summer as a result of the bruising Greenbelt scandal.
Sources said some Minister’s Zoning Orders and portions of the controversial Bill 23 — which impacted a municipality’s ability to charge fees for developments — are on the chopping block."

I absolutely hate one bedroom units. It should be mandatory having two rooms. If you ever have kids you have to essentially move. And if you sell you lose so much in lawyer fees and real estate fees that you might as well bought the two bedroom in the first place.

After 30 years of marriage empty nesters might want some extra space.
It’s much easier to work with a little too much room than it is not enough space.
If you don’t want people to continue to move further and further out then you have to build reasonable sized units that people can choose to live in the city. And in this case we’re already talking about the suburbs.

My parents bought a two bedroom as empty nesters and took down one room. I’d much rather units like that which could be used as both than super small units which people quickly realize isn’t big enough.
