E-mail Print

Infills in central Ottawa neighbourhoods are starting to be big news, not only in Old Ottawa South. There are concerns from neighbours that they will no longer be able to enjoy their properties.

Many worry that they won't have sunlight for their gardens.There is also concern for loss of urban forest, the "lungs of the city" that absorb 25% of the pollution emitted by cars and give back clean oxygen.

CBC Radio Morning (91.5 FM) has had a series of infill stories recent. One story can be found here.

The neighbourhood citizens' petition to ask the City to follow the Urban Infill Guidelines is ongoing and can be signed online here.

Infill discussions in the forums on this website are active and ongoing here. Check it out and add your voice to the conversation whatever your position.
