A 2 building unit has been built on a very small lot in Satoo. No back alley for parking. The contractor has had nimerous complaints about shoddy workmanship.
A permit should never been given for this type of dwelling.

An 8 unit row house is slotted to be built beside me. No consultation. No notice until the sign went in the ground. My neighbor can’t build a fence or open a home based business without notifying me…but this can be approved? Not very democratic!

Because I have been directly affected by the densification of my street and it has had a huge negative impact to myself, my neighbors and our properties and security. We are literally paying for the bad decisions and lack of consultation by the city amd have NO recourse for the damages it has caused to our neighborhood.

I live in a mature neighbourhood that already has issues with infrastructure and I’ve watched a 6 unit infill go up mid-block across from me. It was a shoddy build, blocks out the neighbours because it extends 20 feet beyond their neighbours front doors plus it is 2 stories higher. There is no parking and no room for the waste bins because there is also an apartment garage at the back. My neighbours house is about to be sold and I don’t want a monstrosity like this next to me.

Development and redevelopment is important and valuable. But it must be done with respect for the needs of households and communities affected by any changes.

I love our neighborhood and chose to live here because of the green space and low density. Changing the rules without consultation and without considering the consequences is irresponsible and harmful.

There does not seem to be any thought except profit going in to decisions regarding infill development. What has been happening in Crestwood is criminal! I don't want it happening anywhere else in this city.

Infill is destroying the character and charm of mature neighbourhoods. Our street has 4 times the density as 4 years ago and the infrastructure is 1950's and has not been upgraded to support the growth!!

I am a homeowner of a mature neighborhood and I'm seeing a lot of new infills being built without consideration to parking spaces, road limitations and impact on green spaces

We need to protect our family homes in Edmonton. These multi-building units should not be allowed to be built among single family homes. People have an invested in their homes and having a multi-plex unit(s) being constructed next to or just down the street depreciates the homes value. Parking also becomes an issue.

I want to have a well planned solution to meet the housing needs. Simply jamming in high density housing in the neighborhood is a poor plan.

The poor planning in regards to drainage/sewer/water systems with the addition of 24 new units in one block north of 100th Ave is reprehensible. There have been multiple failures in the water management system with associated flooding, road closures and damage to properties in the area. This is not sustainable.

I live in the Hollywood neighbourhood, which is seeing significant development. I support appropriate infill development however I’m seeing eight and six plexes built between small homes (with no garages). Street parking is becoming overcrowded and unsafe for children in the neighborhood.

Develop your damn density on the airport lands - Blatchford or between 102 ave and 104 ave on Stony Plain road or University of Alberta Farm land in city Limits - NOT with 8 plexes in Neighborhoods zoned RF1 for 80+ years!!! You are destroying the fabric of established neighborhoods, for shame.

Because there are better options to build leaving single family homes as is. Destroying neighbouring homes is not proper planning.
