The Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry wants to change regulations for the Niagara Escarpment protected areas.
For farmers, the proposals would allow:
- Installation of a farm entrance to an agricultural property from a road.
- Elminate minimum agricultural lot size to convert structures from one type of farming use to another.
- Allow construction of a structure accessory to agricultural development, other than a dwelling
- Allow installation of a single, permanent farm produce structure to sell local products.
There are a number of other proposed changes for residential, institutional and government-owned lands.
