Dear Minister Clark:
Re: Strong Mayors, Building Homes Act
30 LEWIS STREET
WASAGA BEACH, ONTARIO
CANADA L9Z 1 Al
www.wasagabeach.com
Please be advised that the Council of the Town of Wasaga Beach, during their August 18, 2022
Council meeting adopted the following resolution:
"That Council receive the letter dated August 10, 2022 from the Ministry of Municipal
Affairs and Housing pertaining to Strong Mayors, Building Homes Act, for information;
And further that a letter be sent to the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing
outlining these proposed powers are not appropriate and to outline other ways for the
province to institute housing and other matters, and that the motion be circulated to all
Ontario municipalities."
The Town of Wasaga Beach Council does not support the Strong Mayors, Building Housing Act
as the proposed changes will not demonstratively speed up the construction of housing and will
erode the democratic process at the local level where members of Council have to work
together to achieve priorities. What is needed to speed up construction of housing is greater
authority for local municipalities to approve development without final clearances from outside
agencies after they have been given reasonable time to provide such clearances.
Your favourable consideration of this matter is appreciated.
Should you have any questions, please contact me at mayor(a-)-wasagabeach.com or (705)
429-3844 Ext. 2222.
Yours sincerely,

As Ontarians face the rising cost of living and a shortage of homes, our government
was re-elected with a strong mandate to help more Ontarians find a home that meets
their needs.
Our government also made an election promise to build 1.5 million new homes for the
people of Ontario over the next 10 years to address the housing supply crisis.
I am pleased to inform you that our government introduced the proposed Strong
Mayors, Building Homes Act on August 10, 2022, that, if passed, would make changes
to the Municipal Act, 2001, City of Toronto Act, 2006, and the Municipal Conflict of
Interest Act. These amendments would empower mayors in the City of Toronto and City
of Ottawa to deliver on shared provincial -municipal priorities and get more homes built
faster.
If passed, the proposed changes impacting the City of Toronto and City of Ottawa are
intended to take effect on November 15, 2022, which is the start of the new municipal
council term. Other growing municipalities could follow at a later date.
If you have any comments or feedback regarding these proposed changes, you may
submit them to the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing at:
StrongMayors __ontario.ca.
Sincerely,
Steve Clark
Minister
