Ontario is celebrating the 10th anniversary of the largest permanently protected greenbelt in the world and looking to the future by reviewing the land use plans of southern Ontario.
The Greenbelt protects farmland, green space and clean water.
The Province will hold public consultations, across the Greenbelt area, on the review of four provincial land use plans to grow the Greenbelt, protect prime agricultural land, build transit friendly communities and support economic development.
The review is expected to be complete by early 2016.
An expert advisory panel has also been put together which includes Keith Currie, Vice President, Ontario Federation of Agriculture and Debbie Zimmerman, CEO, Grape Growers of Ontario.
