Land use planning in the Greater Golden Horseshoe for the rural-urban fringe: A case study assessment of regional approaches
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
In 2006 the Province of Ontario implemented two land-use strategies aimed at curbing urban sprawl and protecting agricultural and environmentally sensitive lands in the Greater Golden Horseshoe. The strategies were the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, 2006 and the Greenbelt Plan, 2005. The Growth Plan represents the government of Ontario's strategy to accommodate and facilitate population and economic growth within the GGH (i.e. where to grow). The Greenbelt Plan sets the framework for the permanent protection of agricultural lands and environmental resources through a natural heritage system (i.e. where not to grow). However, there is a substantial amount of land within the Greater Golden Horseshoe where specific policy directions have been omitted. These lands are located along the rural fringe of urban settlement areas and the inner boundary of the Greenbelt Plan Area. The research paper selects 4 case study areas, the Region of Peel, Region of Halton, City of Hamilton, and Waterloo Region and evaluates the community characteristic and land use approaches taken by the regions to plan for their rural-urban fringe lands. The study concludes that each regional area designates lands within the rural-urban fringe for rural and agricultural uses and has key policy directions to support the viability of the lands. However, policy directives within the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe requires regional authorities to plan for projected population and employment growth which facilitates the conversion of rural and agricultural lands within the rural-urban fringe to accommodate projected growth. The outcome is a policy framework, which allows for encroachment along the rural-urban fringe through special policy area designations that identify the location of future growth areas to accommodate growth projections. With the provincial growth directive in place, the case study regions take similar approaches with respect to planning for future growth. The community character analysis shows that manufacturing and transportation/warehousing are specialized industries (by place of residence) in the sampled GGH regions and the rural-urban fringe within each case study region has been identified to accommodate future employment land needs. In addition, more affluent communities with stronger rural presences such as Halton and Waterloo have implemented more protective land use policies aimed at protecting the rural and agricultural areas beyond the minimum requirements of the Growth Plan. The lack of policy direction with respect to the vision/role for rural-urban fringe lands in the GGH combined with a projection based growth framework in the Growth Plan creates a policy environment where urban uses will continue to encroach upon the rural-urban fringe lands. In the current policy framework, rural and agricultural land uses in the rural-urban fringe can be considered as interim uses, until such time, as urban growth is to be accommodated. Better policy direction is required to provide a vision and role for the rural-urban fringe lands within the GGH context to allow for the long term and sustainable use of the lands.

Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
