this will face the usual wall of opposition.

 

some will complain about traffic.

some height.

some density in general.

many will say they want "family size units".

some will say they should be rentals.

surface parking will be panned.

some will say there is too much parking some will say too little.

 

 

blah blah blah.  take your positions, there are lots to chose from.

The good thing, though, is Saanich says it's serious about housing affordability and housing supply within its borders. 60-units of affordable homeownership opportunities are going to be exactly what the doctored ordered. Which will make it hard to object to, I think.

how did that work out at Raymond/Tillicum?  59 condos beside the highway.

Never mind that. They are serious about housing affordability and housing supply.
