the year Halton could range anywhere from to the IBI report said If the lower end of the growth scale occurs then Halton urban areas will still be able to ac commodate another 000 people and Hills alone could handle another people in the urban If growth proceeds much more rapidly and the population of expands to almost the Region urban areas would have a shortfall of space for about people while Hills urban areas could still handle residents The impact of growth on real den taxpayers in Is quite substantial for the lake based scenarios The North OakviileBurllngton growth scenario would cost taxpayers in the Region an extra on their taxes and the Milton centre growth concept would cost about per resident The Hills southMilton centre growth scenario would cost from to per household
