Q9 - Will you prioritize the conservation of existing greenspace, as well as biodiversity on both city and privately owned lands by amending the property standards by-law, as well as increasing targets for and allocating more funds towards naturalization?

Theresa Kavanagh

Yes. There is increasing evidence that biodiversity is at threat in our urban/suburban environment. Preventative measures are needed to address this concern. Our property standards by-law is one tool the city has to address this issue, as well as encouraging naturalization with funding and incentives to protect at-risk species.

Robert Hill

Yes. 

Othman Alhusain
