To the City of Burlington…

To the City of Burlington Planning Department and Members of Council,

I am writing as a resident of the Millcroft community to express my disappointment and opposition to the Millcroft Greens Phase 2 development proposal.
Residents chose Millcroft for its established character, green space, and quality of life. Converting protected open space into additional residential development fundamentally changes the neighbourhood in ways residents did not anticipate and do not support. I am particularly concerned about the loss of green space and its stormwater and drainage functions, increased traffic on roads not built for this density, and the precedent this sets for further development in established neighbourhoods.

I respectfully urge Council to prioritize the long-term livability of Millcroft and reject the Phase 2 application as presented.

Thank you for considering my comments.

Sincerely,
