Ontario has over one • million' square .kilometres of it. It's important to all of us that every kilometre is put to the best possible use, now ancLr in the future. That's -why Ontario has a Planning Act. It's the legal framework that determines how land should be used; and•in what form development should take place: Under the present Act, munici- palities wishing to pass bylaws relating to the use of land go to the Ontario Municipal 'Board for provincial approval. In recent years, however, the provincial government's role in municipal planning has been changing A committee established in 1975 took a close look at the Planning Act to.see how it could be adapted to suit the changing needs of the municipalities as well as to make the procedures more efficient. After getting' reaction to the. report of the Planning Act Review Committee, the government has now produced the White Paper outlining its position on revising the Act. ti The main proposals are: ❑ The province would place more emphasis 6n.advice and assis- • tancethan on its current role of supervising aFid approving local planning decisions. Municipalities, where appropriate, would be:given autonomy to make planning decisions. This will apply to municipalities which have the resources and capabilities to handle increased planning responsibility o The public would have better 'access Into the planning process Municipalities will have to extend public notification procedures to people who will be affected by planning decisions 7 To speed up•the process, theOntario Municipal Boardwould . act only as an appeals body • A copy of the White Paper -has been made available tc municipalities, planning boards and other interested groups If•you are interested, contact the Ministry of Housing, Communications Branch, 56 Wellesley St., W., Toronto, Ontario M7A 2K4.
