century home</a> — Oct. 28</strong></p>
<p class="text-block-container">Has anyone else noticed a pattern with developments in Waterloo Region in the last few years?</p>
<p class="text-block-container">City bylaws, zoning and heritage designations are in place to protect green space, residential homes, neighbourhoods and historically important buildings.</p>
<div class="undefined seo-media-query"></div>
<p class="text-block-container">A developer approaches a city council and asks that these protections be overturned so they can build their development. Groups of concerned neighbours, heritage bodies and environmental groups devote a lot of time and thought
to eloquently express their concerns to council about tearing down heritage buildings, removing old trees that will take a hundred years to replace and changing the flavour of neighbourhoods.</p>
<p class="text-block-container">The city then asks the builder: How high would you like to build?</p>
<span style="display:block" id="contentEndBreakPoint" class=""></span>
<p class="text-block-container">Cities in the region should listen to the people that will have to live with the new developments, and not just the developers.</p>
