The eight unit infill project next to me is irresponsible at best. There has been no consideration for those who live next door to this. The project has already violated several bylaws and has only just begun.

"Overdensification" is out of control. Neighbourhoods and being used and destroyed by developers.

It's worrying that the City of Edmonton is choosing to forge ahead with out of control infill despite so much opposition. The mayor and councillors need to listen to their constituents!

An eight unit infill is being built next to me. Already, there have been a number of health and safety concerns, just from the tear down of the previous property, removal of the 100 year old trees etc.

The blatant disregard for community members and their wellbeing has been disappointing to say the least. The quiet, charming neighborhood I paid a premium to be in has been overrun by excessive development. When we got over 100 signatures against a large infill at the end of our block, they just quoted the bylaw over and over saying “it’s zoned for this”. Now we’re down to one lane on the street with all the parked cars and navigating lanes full of garbage bins! Plus so many other challenges.

Heartbreaking watching someone house they've owned for 60 years be sandwiched in between two Goliaths losing almost all access to privacy and sunlight in an established mature area. Not to mention lack of parking, too many garbage bins, water runoff. It is out of control.

Many of our neighbours have lived in our cul de sac for over 40 years. The very likely possibility that a multiplex is coming, is causing other neighbours to sell and move. So one becomes 2, etc. So we move, leave the area we love and loose our community. The people who watched our kids grow, who take care of our pets and plants when we are away. Who fix our fence when a tree falls on it. City counsel do not real the stress and anguish these developments cause a neighbourhood.

City Council is in place to represent the residents yet they never fully consulted with the people they speak for. If they are not fulfilling their role they why are they allowed to operate: where is the accountability?When you have 27 neighborhoods actively trying to expand restrictive covenants there is a clear message from the people that this zoning is not wanted. It will do nothing but imcrease profits for developers and landlords.

we have infill in mayfield that really does not create any useable/livable space for families (5 story 48 units on 2 residential lots. largest unit 475sq ft. with 2 bedrooms and 2 baths???). Also an unlivable 8 plex on one lot right across from school

I’m signing this petition because I am in an area in Glenwood where we’ve had Enfield and it went from skinny houses to suites above garages and now we have on single-family lots buildings that hold house eight families multiples of these type of dwellings that tower over the other homes beside them cutting off the shade. The parking with these homes also does not provide enough room. In our area, we have everything that you can think of eight Plexes skinny homes eight Plexes with suites above g

The problem is already unfolding. Over the past three years, more than 15 multi-unit buildings have been constructed in my neighborhood, many without private parking. As a result, street parking has become increasingly congested, while poorly managed trash bins are creating additional problems. I am not opposed to development, but I believe it needs to be managed in a way that addresses parking, waste, and neighborhood livability.

The city is not listening. They approved these high density infills too quickly. Parking problems has gone up. Garbage containers are thrown everywhere. There is NO oversight of these builds.

Bad laws are enabling bad development by developers who don’t care about neighborhood quality of life. Unacceptable!
