Beg to be voted in just to hand yourselves a raise and destroy our City. May you all get what you deserve. You are hated because you violated the trust of those who voted you in. Shame on you!

The rate and degree Belgravia is being overdeveloped is unacceptable. This neighbourhood cannot support the increase in traffic or population. It's already dangerous trying to get around during rush hour with all the traffic. More development will only add to the congestion.

10 unit builds are going up on a single lot. Duplexes are one thing , but 10 units that are not ecstatically pleasing is another. This is causing a sewer smell as our infrastructure cannot take it overflow.

Building multiple units within a single lot , typically a corner lot does not take into account space for parking, deteriorating sewer lines , and a developer who has no stake in the community whatsoever. It’s a money grab . And it does not appear to bring down the price of housing which the idea of high density construction is promoting. Having lived in a mature neighborhood for 45 years and having zero input into how the community needs to adapt to our cities housing needs is not democratic but ignorant .

I'm tired of being at the mercy of Politicians who follow ideologies which harm the public.

Over the past 10 years our neighborhood has become noisy and congested. Four plexes on every corner. Constant noise from never ending construction. Building 2 $800,000 skinny on lots is not affordable it just an eyesore. Only ones getting rich is the developers. These older neighborhood’s infrastructure isn’t designed for all these new homes. They are ruining the charm of these neighborhoods one new infill at a time. I hope all the clowns on the city council are booted out in October. They don’t listen or care about residents who have lived in this neighborhoods for decades.

Cutting down trees and ripping up grass is an environmental travesty.

Bylaw 20001 is destroying the character of mature neighborhoods. The city council has shown a casual disregard for its citizens and is pandering to developers to compensate for poor fiscal management. There is no common sense remaining on city council. Let us hope there is a big change in the upcoming civic election.

I am in full agreement with everything outlined in the petition. Zoning Bylaw 20001 is an environmental catastrophy and in complete opposition to Edmonton's sustainability goals! Rescind, Rethink, and Redo with proper consultation and thorough genuine neighbourhood involvement!

The safety and security of our homes are being disrupted by the expensive infills that are not actually meeting the needs of people who require housing. Our abilities to embrace food sovereignty is dismantled due to the limited sunlight. We live our best lives of what we can purchase, gardening provides food and also provide positive mental health. The infills are taking away community and quality of life for meeting an agenda outside of people’s wellbeing.

Protect trees on private property too. City of Toronto has a bylaw doing just that.

Edmonton has few aesthetically beautiful, historically marked, and liveable neighbourhoods. But recent Council decisions are destroying what remains. It is heartbreaking for existing citizens and deters and disengages new citizens. This is “economics” at its worst, shortsighted and horribly damaging.

Thank you. Our community league doesn't seem interested in infill problems but many citizens do but feel defeated so don't do anything

I emphasize IMMEDIATE action. The deaf ears of council and the resulting carnage over the last three years needs to STOP.
