The controversial project to open up land around the Hamilton airport to industrial and commercial development was approved 6-0 Tuesday by the planning and economic development committee. The committee, however, also voted on a motion from Mayor Fred Eisenberger that after Phase 1, or 33 per cent of the project is developed, the city undertake a review to assess Hamilton’s need for additional employment lands. This will include a review and analysis of what the mayor called the “absorption rate” and the availability of existing brownfield and greenfield sites in the city’s employment areas.
