Regional Municipality of Halton, Ontario : ウィキペディア英語版
Regional Municipality of Halton


The Regional Municipality of Halton, or Halton Region, is a regional municipality of Ontario, Canada, located in Southern Ontario in the southwest part of the Greater Toronto Area ("GTA"). It comprises the city of Burlington and the towns of Oakville, Milton, and Halton Hills and is policed by the Halton Regional Police Service. The regional council's headquarters are located in Oakville.
The Town of Oakville and the City of Burlington are largely urban, while the Towns of Milton and Halton Hills to the north are significantly more rural. Together with urbanization in the neighbouring Regional Municipality of Peel, the urban area of the GTHA is contiguous all the way from the City of Hamilton to the City of Toronto, as is visible on satellite images of the GTHA and the Golden Horseshoe.
Halton has been ranked by ''Maclean's'' national crime ranking report as being the "safest place to live" in the Greater Toronto Area, and one of the top 5 in Canada.〔(Halton Region Ranked Safest Place to Live in GTA, Top 5 in Canada )〕
Halton Region experienced a growth rate of 17.1% between 2001 and 2006, and 14.2% between 2006 and 2011, giving it one of the highest growth rates in the country. Despite the unprecedented growth in residential development, agriculture and protected lands along the Niagara Escarpment are still the predominant land uses in the Region.
==History==

The Regional Municipality of Halton was established on 1 January 1974 as the successor to the former Halton County by the ''Regional Municipality of Halton Act, 1973''.〔''Regional Municipality of Halton Act, 1973'', S.O. 1973, c. 70〕 From 1 January 2003, it has been governed by the ''Municipal Act, 2001''.〔(''Municipal Act, 2001'', S.O. 2001, c. 25 )〕
Until the 2000 municipal elections, the Chairman of the Regional Council had been appointed by the Ontario government. From that date, it has been an elective position. Joyce Savoline was the last appointed Chairman, and was elected and reelected as Chairman until her retirement from the position in 2006. The current Regional Chairman is Gary Carr.
