<div>Following two years of extensive consultation, including <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://trk.mmail.lst.fin.gov.on.ca/trk/click?ref=zr9uf3m5h_1-3c13x3321bx02846&">recommendations from an Advisory Panel</a> chaired by former federal cabinet minister and former Mayor of Toronto, David Crombie, we have released four updated land use plans that will help residents in the Greater Golden Horseshoe and the Niagara Escarpment area live, work and play in communities that are healthy, prosperous and sustainable:</div>
<ul>
<li>The Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2017)</li>
<li>The Greenbelt Plan (2017)</li>
<li>The Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan (2017)</li>
<li>The Niagara Escarpment Plan (2017)</li>
</ul>
<div> </div>
<div><b>The four plans are available for review and download at: </b><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://trk.mmail.lst.fin.gov.on.ca/trk/click?ref=zr9uf3m5h_1-3c13x34bf2x02846&">ontario.ca/greatergoldenhorseshoeplans</a> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>These plans will protect our quality of life for generations to come and will help us prepare for a future in which the region is forecast to grow to 13.5 million by 2041. The plans work together to manage growth, build complete communities, curb sprawl, provide a range of housing options, and attract jobs and investments, while addressing climate change, preserving and protecting green spaces, farmland and ecologically sensitive lands and waters.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>To develop these updated plans, we met with more than 4,600 attendees at town hall meetings, open houses, and technical briefings, and received more than 42,000 comments. We heard from First Nations and Métis communities, municipalities, farmers, developers, environmental organizations, local residents, the Greenbelt Council, and the Niagara Escarpment Commission. This input has been invaluable in helping to shape the final plans we are releasing today as part of the Co-ordinated Land Use Planning Review.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>We would like to sincerely thank all those who participated in the Co-ordinated Review and provided their recommendations and feedback. We look forward to working together to implement the new policies to support a strong, healthy and sustainable future for our growing region.</div>

<div>Sincerely, </div>

<div>À la suite de deux années de consultations poussées et des <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://trk.mmail.lst.fin.gov.on.ca/trk/click?ref=zr9uf3m5h_1-3c13x33222x02846&">recommandations d’un comité consultatif</a> présidé par l’ancien ministre du cabinet fédéral et ancien maire de Toronto, David Crombie, nous avons publié quatre nouveaux plans d’aménagement du territoire qui aideront les résidents de la région élargie du Golden Horseshoe et de l’escarpement du Niagara à vivre, travailler et se divertir dans des collectivités saines, prospères et durables :</div>
<ul>
<li>le Plan de croissance de la région élargie du Golden Horseshoe (2017);</li>
<li>le Plan de la ceinture de verdure (2017);</li>
<li>le Plan de conservation de la moraine d’Oak Ridges (2017);</li>
<li>le Plan d’aménagement de l’escarpement du Niagara (2017).</li>
</ul>
<div> </div>
<div><b>Les quatre plans peuvent être consultés en ligne et téléchargés au: </b><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://trk.mmail.lst.fin.gov.on.ca/trk/click?ref=zr9uf3m5h_1-3c13x34bf3x02846&">ontario.ca/plansregionelargiegoldenhorseshoe</a></div>
<div> </div>
<div>Ces plans préserveront notre qualité de vie pour les futures générations et nous aideront à nous préparer à un avenir qui, selon les prévisions, verra la population de la région atteindre 13,5 millions de personnes d’ici 2041. Ils œuvrent ensemble pour gérer la croissance, bâtir des collectivités complètes, freiner l’étalement urbain, offrir un éventail de types de logements et attirer tant des investissements que des emplois, tout en faisant face au changement climatique et en protégeant et préservant les espaces verts, les terres agricoles, de même que les terres et les eaux sensibles sur le plan écologique.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Pour élaborer ces nouveaux plans, nous avons rencontré plus de 4 600 personnes lors de réunions publiques régionales ou autres comme de séances d’information technique et nous avons recueilli plus de 42 000 observations. Nous avons entendu les avis de communautés des Premières Nations et des Métis, de municipalités, d’exploitants agricoles, de promoteurs, d’organismes environnementaux, de résidents locaux, du Conseil de la ceinture de verdure et de la Commission de l’escarpement du Niagara. Ces avis nous ont été d’une aide inestimable pour la mise au point des plans que nous publions aujourd’hui à l’issue de l’Examen coordonné des plans d’aménagement du territoire.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Nous tenons à remercier très sincèrement tous ceux et celles qui ont contribué à l’Examen coordonné en nous faisant part de leurs points de vue et de leurs recommandations. Nous avons hâte de collaborer avec tous les intéressés à la mise en œuvre des nouvelles politiques en vue d’assurer un avenir prospère, sain et durable à notre région grandissante.</div>
