The reason why we and other homeowners in the area rejected an infill development back then, was because the NDP government at that time wanted to build a Manitoba Housing development. It was felt that a Manitoba Housing development was not in keeping with the single family dwellings in the area.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5854734498362657333.post-33342806504586037352013-12-06T12:17:18.090-06:002013-12-06T12:17:18.090-06:00Clearly John is not from Charleswood and does not ...Clearly John is not from Charleswood and does not know or has experienced its beauty.Many people who live in this neighborhood will tell you how nice it is to walk about and have all this open land that is not tarnished but filling it sub-division homes that are built fast and not well made. The fact that they want to put those kinds of homes in Charleswood is garbage. I enjoy having the wildlife in my neighborhood and I believe that using that land to built homes will take away from what makes Charleswood, Charleswood. The last thing anyone wants is for Charleswood to look like linden woods.

Proposal and rejection is lurking around the city website somewhere.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
