Denied! Landowners’ request for Hamilton City Council approve a Minister’s Zoning Order (MZO) to force the expansion of Hamilton’s firm urban boundary onto hundreds of acres of Hamilton's prime farmland, wetlands, water courses, woodlots and meadows, was denied.

The six Upper West Side landowners listed on page 3 of the MZO wish to expand Hamilton’s urban boundary.

There are dozens of watercourses, wetlands, woodlots and meadows in this parcel and they should be protected in a time of climate crisis and biodiversity loss.
