I absolutely support the development at the Millcroft Golf Course in Burlington Ontario.
The City will benefit for the added tax revenue, without putting any significant additional strain on the existing infrastructure.
In my opinion, the concerns regarding the removal of any 'flood plain', or the risk of flooding events is being exaggerated. Residents that are worried about the potential flooding should take mitigation efforts with their own properties (e.g. removal of paved areas/placement of permeable decks, driveways and walkways). The lands are privately owned, and are not a public park worthy of protection. As a golf course, the lands should not be regarded as 'green space', that holds the burden of mitigating any potential flooding.
I encourage the Province to support the development.
