Both provincial and city officials are being slammed over the so–called aerotropolis reserve. City staff want to label about 1400 acres of rural land for future employment uses, a clause that the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing wants removed from the official plan to avoid speculation on the food production area. Bob Bratina suggested staff have “almost been intransigent” in more than three years of battles with the province over the size of the proposed airport employment growth district, despite public opposition to using agricultural lands for industrial purposes.
