Just curious how everyone feels about the whole laneway home thing to begin with. I know I'd be pretty ****ed if I had bought a home in a single family subdivision and all of a sudden people are building second homes in their backyard to rent out. Increased traffic, population density, parties etc etc.
I remember hearing something about this when it was being voted on, but since I'm not from Edmonton anymore (thank God), I didn't pay too much attention to any debate they had on it.

I've got three on my block (one next door) and they don't have any impact in the least. They replace a homes garage and they have a parking pad beside them. On the other hand I have other neighbors that have more cars parked all over the place and crappy cars parked behind their triple car garage.
I'll take the laneway homes.
