economist suntribune environment thursday jan 20 2000 make developers pay di biase from page 1 theres no reason why you cant charge 1000 or 2000 or even 3000 a unit and that money can go toward a kettle lake park hundreds of residents packed richmond hills council chambers last week upset the municipality is making 7000 acres of greenspace urban councillors argued the move actually protects the moraine a landform which acts as the headwaters for 30 streams in the greater toronto area pointing out developers will lobby the ontario municipal board this spring to open the lands for development council lors insist their plan will protect sensitive areas of the moraine including setting aside a set of corridors linking environmen tal features but furious residents said the move will turn the town into a developers goldmine and are now asking the region to deny the towns proposal they urged politicians to protect remaining greenland suggesting a park be established like new york city did with central park whose interest does it serve to pave over every square inch of richmond hill the residents or the developers said vaughan resident angela grelia praising councillor brenda hogg for being the only richmond hul politician to vote against making the land urban i wish more politicians would stand up and represent the constituents who voted for them rather than the developers i hope you people stand up and show some bravery richmond hill resident penny parmenter agreed development is too positive a word for what is happening to the moraine a better synonym is intrusion she said once the moraine is gone its gone forever you cant just get on the internet and order up another moraine from sears or home depot gloria marsh of the richmond hill naturalists said
