John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport: The city is inching toward the end of a bitter five-year battle to allow hundreds of hectares of farmland around the John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport to be used for factories, warehouses and offices meant to create thousands of new jobs and $50 million in new taxes by 2031. , according to Hamilton Spectator. "Ironically, this process has taken so long we're already falling behind again on our employment land targets," said Guy Paparella, the city's director of growth management, pointing to the province's latest population and employment growth targets for Hamilton. We may have to do this all over again in the very near future. Guy Paparella Director of growth management The largest urban boundary expansion in Hamilton's history is no longer enough.
