I strongly support ERO 026-0550, the City of Burlington’s request to protect the remaining Millcroft Golf Course lands as Open Space. These lands should continue to support stormwater management, flood protection, trees, natural heritage, and open space for the community. Read more

Please Preserve this Millcroft Golf Club space on the remaining fairways and Do Not Approve any further development. This is a serious and well documented flood plain and the proposed housing is in excess of $2 million and this is not considered Affordable Housing. Read more

We have lived in Millcroft for over 25 years. Our attraction to originally purchase our home was the available green space and the golf course near by. There were local schools for our daughter and lots of friends in our surrounding neighbourhood. Read more
