General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours

[panamaniac]

Although, again, do residents' complaints about shadows have much impact on whether or not the City approves a project (what's the track record?)?  In recent years, I seem to recall that it was raised in the context of the project next to MacGregor School's playground.  That project is now under construction (revised due to neighbourhood complaints?).  Shadowing may also have been raised in the context of Breithaupt Block Phase III, but the key factor (iirc) was the proximity of the proposed parking garage wall to the neighbouring yards, something that was resolved through negotiation, and the project is now under construction.
