I’m signing because building these 8 plexes, is not going to fix the problems we are having with housing. It’s not going to add much revenue for the city. It is destroying the manor of our older neighborhoods that people move to because we don’t have this crap. Edmonton City council better start listening to its citizens.

This has gone beyond ridiculous! There is a large complex going up in our neighbourhood on a tiny keyhole crescent. It's not even on the end of the crescent, but right in the middle! Of a tiny keyhole crescent. Makes you wonder about the competency of anyone involved in this, thus makes you wonder about their competency about ANYTHING!

Current zoning only favours developers and leaves all the followup issues on the remaining residence. Each development MUST provide off street packing for every unit developed, height restrictions must account for solar panels on adjacent residences, infrastructure (Water, Sewer, power, roads) must be upgraded to accommodate increased density.

The City can't reasonably argue that we should all have solar, we invest in it, and then someone knocks the neighbour's bungalow down and builds a three storey, eight unit monstrosity that shades all the neighboring homes. It's incoherent public policy, infill needs to respect ecological priorities.

Seeing approved and built multiplex units that don’t suit the vibe of the street or surroundings. We and other people have invested to be in such neighbourhood for the peace and quiet. Now there are concerns with more cars passing by this park/playground where kids play………more congestion in such a small area increasing the risk of accidents/incidents……but such structures depreciate the value of our property/neighbourhood.

I purchased my home in a single family neighbourhood for a reason. Changing the zoning could mean I could have up to 16 neighbours in an 8 plex. The city shouldn’t have the right to change our neighborhood with cheaply built, poorly maintained multiplexes.

As an adult, I saved my whole life to buy the childhood single family home I grew up in the neighbourhood I love.
An 8plex is going up behind my house in the middle of the block beside everyone else in their quiet single family homes. It’s a monstrosity

We live in an older neighborhood across from a green park. The houses are mostly bungalows in our area. Now, a small house down our bock and across the street from our beautiful park will be torn down. A 3 story multiplex is going to be built on the lot. Not a single home owner wants this to happen! Gardens are losing light. Our quiet neighborhood is now going to be louder and crowded. Another point of concern is to how the water drainage for all of these separate apartments will be addressed.

I used to live in Edmonton and now live in St. Albert and there is talk in our city for infills. I completely disagree with how this is being done in any city where little consideration is made for how it affects the surrounding homes and stress on the old infrastructure. This is not "Responsible Development". Time for the city councils and managers to get their priorities in check and build the cities in ways that support the people's needs and established communities in a balanced way.

We just bought a house in terrace heights one week ago, and now have heard that a multiplex is being proposed right next door… I’m sure it will be the usual, terrible architecture, no parking, a huge eyesore, and tank the property value. Not to mention the fact that it may be a nightly air ba nad b rental. We do not want these in our Edmonton neighborhoods!
