At the Community meeting, City staff heard many comments and perspectives from residents regarding the concept of parkland and market housing.
Concerns raised during the meeting included:
The amount of space allocated to housing
Lot size
Types of housing (Market, affordable, assisted)
Who would reside in the housing
The capacity of infrastructure to support additional housing
The Street on which housing would be located
