> Dear CELA Board Members:
> 
> The provincial government's package of changes to land use planning introduced by Bill 23, accompanied by a raft of policy proposals, is, as we noted in our last bulletin, the biggest set of land use changes introduced at once that CELA has ever seen.  The CELA team has been working hard over the last couple of weeks diving in and analyzing it, and we have a resource page we have been directing people to, which includes our preliminary analysis on various schedules to the Bill, speaking notes from standing committee last week, resources from other parties such as Conservation Ontario and ACTO and several others.  We will keep updating this page, but I wanted to let you all know that it is here.  We hope to have our submission to the Committee posted in the next day or so as well so that people can refer to it for their own messaging.  Please feel free to share with your networks and/or send your own personal comments; contact your MPP etc.  We also provide a chart at the top of the page with all of the posting links, and their deadlines.
