They are going to try and resurrect the Brookwood OCP. I'm sure the developers are pushing hard for this and are more than gently reminding members of our council of the money they gave to their campaigns or discussing their future support in some secret way...
Might I remind council that the 2014 input and findings are what caused such an uproar, a demonstration, a march, signs everywhere, bad provincial press, and multiple night marathon counsel meetings containing angry residents.
People were angry with the bate-and-switch techniques used in the planning process and the general dishonesty by withholding information and attempts at spin...
It is this dishonesty displayed during the planning process and the fact that the GNAC had direct access to the planner and was influencing the outcome that further aggravated residents causing them to act.
The resulting bias made the 2014 report unreliable and suspect.
If there is an attempt to use the 2014 findings I suspect there will be a repeat of the outrage shown a year ago as many on the counsel may remember.
But then again we are destined to make the same mistakes over and over again until we learn our lesson, so why would our local politicians be any different?
