Partners Update - July 2006, Part II

Last week I received the July 2006 update from George Grasser, the über organizer behind Partners for a Livable WNY. This afternoon, I received this latest update. Lots more things of interest to residents of Buffalo, especially information about projected growth and population patterns in southern Ontario.
TheProvince of Ontario has released its final 25-year Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe area around the western edge of Lake Ontario. The area is projected to accommodate an additional 3.7 million residents by 2031. A five-year $8.3 billion infrastructure plan includes $4.1 billion for public transit.
George also sent along his detailed commentary about the Regional Framework that I posted about last week. Read George's remarks, here.

I've archived past Partner's Newsletters, over here.

There is a quality even meaner than outright ugliness or disorder, and this meaner quality is the dishonest mask
of pretended order, achieved by ignoring or suppressing the real order that is struggling to exist and to be served.
