Helen Hambilin Ledger Land. Ontario has over one million square kilometres of it. It‘s important to all of us that every kilometre is put to the best possible use, now and in the future. That‘s why Ontario has a Planning Act. It‘s the legal framework that determines how land should be used, and in what form development should take place. In recent years, however, the provincial government‘s role in municipal planning has been changing. A committee established in 1975 took a close look at the Planning Act to see how it could be adapted to suit the changing needs of the municipalities as well as to make the procedures more efficient. Under the present Act, municiâ€" palities wishing to pass bylaws relating to the use of land go to the Ontario Municipal Board for provincial approval. After getting reaction to the report of the Planning Act Review Committee, the government has now produced the White Paper outlining its position on revising the Act We‘ve taken a new look at Ontario‘s Planning Act.
