Great comments to all (voted down or not)! Thanks to Matt for really trying to get this ball on the right track! So I ask all of you at RTH, You, (rightfully so) do not accept the City for watching this scenario slide (once again)...
As a tax payer outside of the core...How do you think I feel, when ANYONE within the Urban area can disrespect not only Council but also the neighbors who have to live with this DISGUSTING MESS disguised as "brownfields" AKA contaminated waste sites, while I own property in the rural are of Hamilton (aka Flamborough) and have been told that the "New Official PLan for Rural Areas within our City" ( I have a stream and pond if there is enough rain) will be classified as HAZARD LANDS?
The above comments are AMAZING and we need to push the City to OPEN THEIR EYES!!! While we are at it in the Core (which is so evident) we need to express that our VIRGIN GREENSPACE outside of the 'City', is not HAZARDOUS...
This is soooo backa$$wards it leaves me dumbfounded...Yes, TOXIC WASTE = BROWNFIELDS
NATURAL WETLANDS = HAZARD LANDS
My propety will decline in value due to this designation while the true offenders and don't care a lots will get away with continuing the toxic waste and not have to pay the taxes to boot!
City Hall should consider taxing ANYONE/ANYWHERE with known contaminents left to go un addressed or cleaned up DOUBLE THE TAXES...not a "TAX BREAK" for being unoccupied.
Have an awesome day everyone!
Sky (aka Danya Scime)
