NIMBYism almost derailed apartment intensification in single family hood

A perfect example of NIMBYism in countering new and badly needed housing may have been the debate over a proposal by Homes by Artisan back in March for the proposal on Cabana Rd. W. near Roseland Golf Club in south Windsor, a largely single family home area. One resident decried the three-storey 29-unit building as changing "the character and esthetics of the neighbourhood, decreas(ing) green spaces and trees (and) attract(ing) a transitory population." Another resident cited "uncontrolled over intensification, high density through different massing, and building height proposed is higher than adjacent properties causing shadowing and lack of privacy." Resident and former city councillor Fulvio Valentinis worried about the "low density neighbourhood increasing to high density, compatibility, additional traffic" on Casgrain Dr. Current area councillor Fred Francis was concerned about an "undesirable precedence." But the proponent's agent, Tracey Pillon-Abbs, stated the development complied with the city's official plan including density and height. A "sloped roof.....matches the character" of the neighbourhood, and there would be "negligible" traffic impact. Planner Justina Nwaesei cited a new land use designation, Residential Corridor with policies that support intensification like this - medium scale low profile housing. She added the development "should not have any adverse impact on the neighbourhood and there are measures to mitigate any potential impacts." Councillor Kieran McKenzie asked if the project "fills a need for a specific type of housing and if this is a missing middle for the housing gap." Economic development commissioner Jelena Payne agreed and stated that based on studies conducted that this is inline with the needs of the community. Despite the opposition a tied committee vote meant the proposal passed: next stop City Council.
