Stop these ridiculous in fills. A skinny is ok but anymore no. Where’s the parking for more.

Ritchie is already a dense neighborhood and installing an 8 plex on a single family home yard would disrupt the already limited parking availability

Done without any neighborhood feedback. Skinny homes I could understand but all these huge buildings being built clogging up roads & being built next to regular sized homes is totally inconsiderate.

Housing is important and particularly lower income but this infil is just creating future ghettos.

8plex next door to me is atrocity. Parking space is at premium as of now, once new tenants move in, it will become worse. Building is too close to property line and my privacy has been taken away. Windows are but to line up directly with my existing windows

This infill housing is causing more then housing issues it’s effecting parking to go with it. We are having this exact issue on our street on 155st. It’s absolutely ridiculous.

Mature and historic neighborhoods shouldn’t be subject to irresponsible, disproportionate redevelopment.

The zoning bylaw without local consultation like it always has been, would require sufficient consultations with all communities and through a public vote with the initiative publicly debated. This is too fast and without proper warning.

Where is the parking? The city is ridiculous for granting building permits to these greedy developers. No consideration for residence of the neighborhood. The city does nothing for tax payers when they are scammed by contractors.

Too many beautiful old homes are being knocked down and filled in with multi dwelling properties when they neighbourhoods weren’t designed for it. No parking, lack of resources and green spaces, schooling issues, and more and more and more. These infills need to be limited to a reasonable number which the existing neighbour and resources can withstand. Without taking this into account you are going to have non stop issues, with electrical, plumbing, transportation to name a few.

I would like to be able to afford a home one day and not have to compete with investors from all over the country.

Infills should never have been nor should be allowed in any established neighborhood without 100% consent from the community. Many neighborhoods were designed a certain way and are being ruined by dwellings that just do not fit into the original plan. No one at city hall ever considered how these infills would affect the community. Parking alone is causing considerable stress and confusion for neighborhoods. As mentioned, going forward all building that is outside the neighborhoods design has to be voted on by the entire community.
