On the surface the concept is very agreeable, but we've seen other "employment lands" turn into big box retail without much fuss. Like the big-ass former industrial yard at Centennial/QEW, and "Winona Crossing" at Fifty Rd. being rezoned from its original designation.

The 'bait and switch' could easily be at play here too, depending how the hurdles are jumped or moved.
