I spent 10 years+ in this suburb, it is filled with medium/large SFD homes built in the 70-80s, very family oriented. It doesn't seem economical to buy expensive SFD and build condos but maybe I am wrong.

The newer communities in Calgary were master planned to include SFD, Townhouses and Condos/Apartments, Lake Bonavista was built when density was not on the radar of any city planner as Calgary was 1/3 the size.

> For his community, it's all about certainty over the future of their streets

My biggest complaint about NIMBYism is this behavior. Why are current owners allowed to dictate so many rules about "the future"?
