We have neighbours who have 8 plexes on either side of them. They have lost all sun light and no one will buy their home. The city did this to them and it's been so stressful and devastating to them.

Sensible infill not catastrophic destruction of older neighbourhoods

This bylaw passed is as bad as any law Danielle Smith and UCPs have passed in recent years. It's like watching a city council say they care but put virtually no consideration in to who their affecting. Strangely again it's a reminder of how important it's is to vote. I'm not an NDPer or a UCPer, but I do believe in good governance. This is not it.

The City needs to take a breath. Stop allowing this to destroy neighbourhoods. Rethink how and where infills are allowed.

I’m writing in support of the petition against unchecked infill development in mature neighbourhoods. While I understand the need for growth and increased housing, I believe development must be balanced with preserving the character, green space, infrastructure capacity, and livability of established communities. Residents deserve thoughtful planning and meaningful consultation before significant densification occurs.

Not a lawyer, but seems like a class action lawsuit against the city for ruining neighbourhoods, decreasing existing property values, etc... is needed here to get them to stop!

Do better Edmonton! Don't approve development without considering the negative ramifications like parking (if at all available), garbage and sewer. Plus 10 units on a previous single lot is asinine.

This irresponsible approach to infill is negligent to the city's constituents. We need bylaws that structure infill in a meaningful way that is sensitive to the existing framework of a neighbourhood and its district plan. Bylaws and enforcement need to be redesigned so builders with a history of non-compliance and bylaw infringement are held accountable and no longer able to receive permits in our city.

Andrew Knack and his trainer and predecessor Don Iveson. need to get their head screwed on straight and understand there is a difference between every neighborhood and the zoning needs to be dealt with properly and specifically for each neighborhood

Prefer no infill that would have a negative impact on existing property value. Meaning developers cannot just select areas that will yield them the most profit while completely disregarding the impact of their project on the surrounding community.

Poorly crafted bylaw with horrible community impacts. Councillors passing this aberration should never have been re-elected. Terrible judgment.

I do not want my neighborhood destroyed by infill housing. Build a suburb of them somewhere else.

These need to be stopped ! 10 units is insane , the city’s infrastructure cannot handle it. Try getting out of the neighborhood during rush hour and it’s impossible

How is this affordable housing ? Also, we don't have to live like we live in Tokyo. 90% of our country has no one living in it.

Parking is already an issue. with the infills that are going to be built it will be worse. Also the water pressure and all the garbage has the city even thought of that.
