Two Ontario municipalities are asking the provincial government to reimburse them for more than $400,000 in costs they incurred while working on the now-reversed Greenbelt land removals in their communities.
Premier Doug Ford admitted last month that his government's November 2022 decision to remove 15 parcels from the protected Greenbelt for housing development -- a move now the subject of an RCMP investigation -- was a mistake, and his new housing minister has now started the process to return them.But Pickering, Ont., the site of the largest parcel of land by far, and Grimsby, Ont.
About $90,000 of that is due to staff time, while the largest line item in direct costs came in the form of more than $178,000 paid to an economic consulting firm for a financial impact analysis of the proposed Cherrywood development. In Grimsby, the town council unanimously passed a motion recently to call on the province to reimburse their municipality for about $82,000.
"The Town of Grimsby had initially anticipated that all costs incurred would be offset by fees associated with the developments affected by the changes to the Greenbelt."Calandra has said the province will not be compensating developers for any costs they incurred.
