    Condo buildings in oakbluff?

    Anyone else opposed to by-law no.7/17. By the looks of the notice they are expecting to add 2 condo buildings   (apartment style ) and 96 townhouse condos.  Intersecting with horizon drive on south side of number 3 Hwy.

     It would also appear that this would be first phase of the condos and future phases would follow further towards number 2 Hwy. 

    They  are holding an information  meeting at RM June 13,2017 at 5pm.

    Don't get me wrong I'm all for growth. Townhouses and bungalow condos are fantastic. Apartment style condos don't belong out in the "country". 

    A concern aswell well is the quality of the buildings. Are they going to accent our beautiful neighbourhood or are they going to be an eye sore and devalue our properties. 

    This traffic issue affects all residents of Oak Bluff West, As they will only have one exit for all occupants and as of right now we have only one exit adjacent to where they are proposing their exit.

    There is a reason we all chose Oak Bluff to call home and that's the openness. We should be broadening our horizons not narrowing them with condo complexes. 

    If you aren't for this, please contact  our councillor and attend the meeting. 
    Thanks

    Good luck with the RM I couldn't even get a street sign to get vehicles to slow down around the playground. This Rm just doesn't listen to its citizens.

    Turns out that these "townhouses" are going to be affordable rentals.

    Kids from those apartments are going to have to get to the school across the highway somehow.

    Hope someone doesn't have to get badly hurt before the RM does something about things around here.

    rmackie    Have you heard any more on this, the rm does not seem to respond.  Many people here in Oak Bluff would like the rm to buy the property and then lease it out to:  1. a med to upscale restaurant like Chili's 2. A Co-op gas bar with a car wash, a bank branch, 7 eleven. All housed in that property. This way the rm can get both taxes and lease payments and control what business comes in. Those business places noted are a wish list on some families that live here.
