There's a multiplex slated to be built very near my home... just a few houses away, in a field where the local kids play soccer, soft ball, baseball etc. A safe space. Between 2 schools a K-6, and a K-9. How much will this new building interfere with our view of the kids playing, how much will the street parking effect the neighborhood?
This building is for low income people,they have a bad reputation ... will we be safe, maintain our peaceful, quiet, safe place? Or will we be embattled with trash, dirty kids running around unsupervised until all hours? As things are just a few blocks away in the Civida housing.
Honestly... this will directly cause property values to drop, our home's and kids safety, and neighborhood appearance.
Im very strongly opposed to these buildings

The city allowing infill housing in my neighborhood will devalue my home I have spent years paying off and investing in. This is not about community, this is about lining peoples pockets while devaluing tax payers assets. This is shameful, and we pay more taxes with less services, and now will have property that is worth less.

Our homes are investments in our future. Irresponsible infill, for example we have a 8 unit build going in, will reduce the value of our home. The significant increase of load on infrastructure (water, sewer, internet, and power), will reduce the comfort and experience of our living space. Either compensate or consult. We are now planning on moving from a home we love. A home we infused with our character and love. I cannot tell you how betrayed I feel.

I'm not against in resign density in mature neighborhoods, but I don't believe it is being done thoughtfully and with regards to keeping the diversity of a neighborhood. None of the new build are affordable to buy or rent and the lack of parking requirement will negatively affect the reta of the neighborhood. Especially with the narrow streets in Bonnie Doon.

What a great way to destroy Neighbourhoods! I think they should be permitted next to each councillors home so they can enjoy the destruction too.

I have seen this monstrosity of an infill in Lauderdale and it looks absolutely ridiculous!!
I feel so bad for the people living on both sides of it. Privacy gone, parking is going to be a nightmare

Edmonton City Council has made a grave mistake with #20001 and it needs to be rectified immediately and not just by the Council alone but only with the public’s consent for provisions that need to be implemented and proper location for zoning of these buildings they are allowing with #20001.

Too many infields with large amounts of units and no parking. Snow Removal is already a disaster. This makes it worse for all residents no matter where they’re from.
The large complex is being built on small areas takes away from property values, and the neighbourhood overall. None of this is what citizens want.
Stop spending money on useless programs and use taxpayer money wisely

The number of current and emerging infills in our area is ridiculous, especially 8-16 plexes being created and all corner lots being snapped up by developers for these units. I accept that we need to accommodate a growing population and that urban sprawl provides a limited response. However, many of these new units in mature neighbourhoods are unreasonably large; blocking sun and sky light from smaller homes; and are just unsightly. Who approved the gargantuan height on the new build on 79 st just north of 90 Ave? So ugly. I agree with a maximum of 4 units on a lot, with further height restrictions than have been approved. Further, there are parking issues already visible from multi-plexes, and with a proposed bike lane coming on 79 st, this will continue to be a problem.

If they do this they need to drastically reduce taxes to the original home owners as it really drops house value.

This is very concerning, these 8 plexes . they are going up everywhere in the older urban areas and causing issue with existing housing. It seems they block out the sun from the existing bungalows and now street parking is at a minimal This I have 4 churches with my area that already crowd the parking and now they are erecting these monstrosity.

I bought into Delton 30+ years ago. It was the ideal older neighbourhood in my budget. I love the old trees, the quiet streets. But now with infill 3 to 4 store high buildings; along with the blocking and barricading constructed for the bike lanes. These lanes barely get used & they block access to the tax payers home & to emergency vehicles. I've witnessed them having to detour to access an emergency.
