Restore Edmonton's Democracy: Rescind. Rethink. Redo

Duggan neighborhood where I reside is putting in a restrictive covenant to help with such issues

Don’t want to see the destruction of our older neighborhoods, loss of tree cover and flood mitigation, lack of parking; especially when areas like blanchford are ready for development

No one wants an 8-plex being built next to their single family home.

3-story, 8-unit, rental buildings are not affordable housing. Developers make a profit after one year of rent, and continue money-grabbing thereafter. Can the infrastructure handle the extra load. At least 1 parking stall per unit needs to be required.

these infills are just getting way to big and don't fit into

Stop destroying our peaceful neighborhoods with Apartment style buildings with no parking , unsafe for firefighters,garbage removal and parking , etc.etc.

Now stuck between two 8 units infills my interior wall has been damaged by their excavation pounding and my resale value has tanked. Nice job city council.

City of edmonton needs to repeal the blanket zoning Bylaw.

Agreed! There needs to be a Minstrial Order put in place by our Minister of Municipal Affairs, Dan Williams, with an immediate moratorium on infill until this is reviewed!

I fully support both phases of the two-stage solution.

If infill housing needed then for it to be done a In a responsible, accountable manner. Listen to the will of the people!

Can there be a legal injunction applied for. That would halt all present and applied for, infill construction activity, until such time as the city of Edmonton council revisits (with real - community and citizen consultation) the present infill zoning bylaw (20001 ) That passed with limited to no notice during the COVID pandemic I also believe that city councilors and the mayor had and have a fiduciary duty to represent their voters and should have had input from all interested and affected parties, particularly residential taxpayers, that would bear the brunt of proposed zoning changes. As these present changes significantly affect community character and values. Failure to actively promote community values should leave them personally open to legal and financial liability. Presently they hide behind the present, legal protections of their office. The present zoning bylaw (20001) could lead one to reasonably conclude, that there had been a level of complicity, between the city planning/zoning departments and ambitious land developers. Ignoring existing community values and input.

In the last year, we have seen two four plex and two eight plex projects constructed on our street (109A st). We are a young family and while we love Parkallen, we aren’t seeing families move into these homes. The neighbourhood has changed greatly, and with a very busy street in front of our home now we have made the decision to move somewhere quieter where our kids can safely play. The one duplex has also had construction happening as early as 3 am. Developers are not respecting the neighbourhood and are here to make a profit, not preserve any of the community’s character.

Don’t take our park away!

Good governance requires input from the citizens being governed. No citizen input is called a dictatorship or authoritarian government.

Thank you for initiating this much needed need for change

Single family only is why I moved here away from crime-ridden apartment densities in Queen Mary community.

The current policies are ruining Edmonton - people are moving to municipalities that do not allow this type of development.

The city needs to listen to the residents who are having their neighborhoods ripped apart

The current City polices are reckless and are destroying our neighborhoods character.
