Caledon Town Council has endorsed a Housing Pledge for how the Town will meet its housing target of 13,000 residential units by the province’s goal of 2031.
Mayor Annette Groves says they want to make sure the growth is responsible, to make Caledon the most livable and sustainable rural-urban community.
The pledge is requesting the province work with the Town to understand the supports needed.
Groves says they have outlined concerns about how their the greenfield development needs are different from other established communities.
Any new housing in Caledon needs access to transit, amenities, parkland and roads and water.
The Town of Caledon has made four key requests of the Province to deliver its housing targets, including: funding tools for growth related issues, respect for the Town’s growth phasing plans and secondary planning processes, a stop to ministerial zoning orders, and restrictions on planning applications.
