Transition Board
Bill 185, the Cutting Red Tape to Build More Homes Act, amends Bill 112, and confirms that Peel Region will not be dissolved. The legislation recalibrates the focus of the Transition Board to prioritize improving efficiency within local government for residents and taxpayers.
The Transition Board will also provide recommendations to the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing on the potential transfer of services currently provided by Peel Region to lower-tier municipalities. These services include land use planning, water and wastewater (including stormwater), Regional roads, and waste management.
The Transition Board is expected to provide their recommendations to the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing in Spring 2024.
