A huge monstrosity has just gone up down the block from us, blocking the sun to the neighbors award winning yards!

A 7 or 8 plex is not fitting into the neighborhood. No larger than a 4 plex should be allowed

The infill is just so ugly. For shame.

I bought this property for a reason and it was not to have a monster house over look my back yard. We will have no privacy at all, no parking, garbage. The value of what I paid will go down by $150,000.00

These big monstrosities are not ok in any neighbourhood so please listen and stop these that nobody wants in their neighbourhood. Maybe put some in your neighbourhood and see how your neighbours like it.

This mindless infill is ruining and making our neighborhood unsafe and impossible to park a car

Countless properties like this have popped up in the area over the last few years.. they dont do anything positive for the neighborhoods they are in... The only people happy about these homes are the people making a fortune building and selling them, I've lived directly next door to one such property for 3-4 years and the duplex has gone through 7 families... That's just the vehicle aspect... What about blocking my view/Sun access for gardens having a massive house build nearly right up against my fence with very clear views into my yard? More cars/people means more noise and that's without considering the endless construction and disruptions that come from that being next door.. what about other major issues like drainage impact? Or simply ripping out the trees and grass that the old single family home had for more concrete... Those are real issues before even getting into the "possible" issues such as greater population density often leads to more crime, or sewer capacity, water pressure, garbage collection, school and local service density.. all of these are issues that are more likely than not but still not gaurenteed like some of the others I mentioned..

Absolutely a mess, zero parking, emergency routes not thought through. Water & electricity not taken into consideration. Leave Riverdale as a beautiful historical area!

t will affect my property value and privacy. I am also very concerned about parking for tenants and potential problems with garbage.

Stop this infill nonsense immediately given the parking situation cannot support 8 plexes given the stupid roads you have been building on Ottewell Rd and elsewhere.

Stop ruining the value of neighboring properties by allowing massive infill projects in residential areas designed to have single family or duplex homes. A new build should not rob the neighbors of sunlight, privacy, or parking.

Residents need 51% input and council 49%

It is ridiculous that there is no room for garbage bins, recycle bins, parking and snow removal. This council is not representing the people who elected them. They just have their own agenda.

Unbelievable that a property tax payer could be invaded by a landfill.

All the infill housing that is being allowed to be built should not be allowed. They are cheapening neighborhoods. With no parking being included with them, anyone who lives in them that own vehicles will completely take over street parking so that owners of houses can no longer park in front of their own homes. Some of these monstrosities on the south side are also being rented out on a daily basis so what kind of people will they be that are renting them? Stop this insanity!

This used to be a nice neighborhood. Numerous multi level homes are being built in our neighborhood and it’s not going to stop if something is not going to be done.

The infill zoning appears to be poorly thought out. Turning the process over to developer's and landlords is a recipe for building wealth, not addressing affordable housing and communities.

I don’t want any more infills on my neighborhood. Plus. Houses being built front and back of the lot with no space for parking. This is a nice old neighborhood and these infills need to stop.
