This is not about property values or protecting a private view. It rests on three factual arguments, each of which stands on its own:
•
The land in question is engineered flood infrastructure. The golf course was designed as part of the community's stormwater system. The Province's own notice describes the lands as containing “wetlands, regulatory flood plains, and erosion hazards.”
•
The developer is skipping the rules. A Minister's Zoning Order (MZO) bypasses the municipality, public
consultation, environmental review, and — critically — all rights of appeal.
•
The developer's approved first phase is already marketed by its own builder as luxury estates “from $2 million,” and the new request adds ~138 more market-rate homes with no affordability requirement — in a city whose housing pipeline already exceeds its provincial target.

This request must be denied.
