The present zoning is out of control. People who have resided in their mature neighborhoods for years are being squeezed out by the excessive infill and multi housing developments. Neighborhoods are being destroyed and torn apart by excessive construction .

This infill nonsense has to stop. There seems to be very little follow-up after the build to make sure it was built to code. No regard for the neighbors or neighbourhood

I believe we need to limit urban sprawl but to build 8 multiplexes within two blocks does not support a healthy community.

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.

Neighborhood character could be lost forever, without even knowing if the densification will lead to better housing rates, or if the extra construction will just sit empty.

Mindful community development.
The city is not creating community development.

An 8plex infill is going up across the street from us, the house and home we have invested all our hard earned money in. A family was displaced by this development, our neighborhood is all single family homes. Not a single person on our street wants this and have all fought it through the courts already just to be silenced. It’s absolutely ludicrous for this infill to go up where it’s going with no consideration for our community.

This byelaw was passed without adequate consultation with community. It is resulting extensive, lasting, damage to communities & Edmonton. Priority goes to international investors and people whose greed far out, sees their interest in having a city where people want to live over the short & long term

Current infill developments (purpose built rental 6+multiplexes) are strictly a financialized housing product and do very little to improve or enhance current mature neighborhoods. In fact, they are having negative cumulative impacts.
Federal housing accelerator fund requires up to 4 units per lot. This is better supported as it allows homeowners (not speculators) who live or want to live in these neighborhoods to add density but incrementally - homeowners that are vested in their community!!

These rowhouse developments are killing previously single family neighborhoods. Our single family neighborhood had to battle a 5 unit rowhouse placed right in a small laneless cul de sac. This nonsense has to stop ASAP.

My family’s house has been directly affected by the COE rezoning and we feel our voice has not been heard.
