There are a lot of high-rise residential projects in the works in and around the Elmvale Acres Shopping Centre, and some mid-rise projects along Smyth. Development projects such as these will have potential effects on traffic, parking, local infrastructure, and community aesthetics.
Elmvale residents need to BE INFORMED about development projects and SPEAK UP to ensure that all development -- big and small -- is sustainable and fits the character and functionality of our community.
