The main objective of this report is to provoke informed discussion on ways to better integrate environmental and land-use planning. Chapter 1 outlines the existing land-use planning and environmental assessment process in Ontario. Chapter 2 describes various problems in the current system and concludes that it requires reform. Chapter 3 presents some general principles that could be used to better integrate environmental considerations into land-use planning in a fair and consistent way. Chapter 4 concludes that a comprehensive public inquiry is needed to study and consult on the issues before any recommendations can be made to government on whether and how a fully integrated system could be developed.
