Turned down another housing development because of loss of trees, the design didn't fit the neighborhood. But approved a shelter already over saturated and struggling. https://t.co/VHacGmGQWG @lisahelps @Ben_Isitt @JeremyLoveday @Chartj88

Victoria City Council turned down a proposal for Chatham st that would provide approx 150 AFFORDABLE RENTAL HOUSING because they did not feel the design fit well with the area. WHAT? We thought there was housing crisis? that's what they said when they approved the shelter

Councillor Loveday stated that “One speaker asked why should my neighbourhood take all of the supportive transitional housing? It shouldn’t.” #Burnsidegorge

Councillor Madoff “...it is really important in Burnside Gorge, that we make a really strong statement that not only have we listened to you, but heard you...we want to work with you to make sure that anything that comes into the neighbourhood in the future is successful”.

[PlanB BGC @PlanB_BGC]

Councillor Thornton-Joe stated that “I agree with with the neighbours and Councilor Young that Burnside Gorge has more than it should [high needs housing].” #Burnsidegorge

Councillor Isitt stated the Manchester Quadrant “is a part of the city that has been neglected by council and a real lack of public investment”. #Burnsidegorge

Mayor Helps stated “Rock Bay has over shadowed absolutely everything. That’s a problem, Rock Bay's a problem, it has been a problem since it opened you have absolutely no reason to trust the city and you have absolutely no reason to trust Cool-Aid, you really don’t.”

Many of Victoria City Council appears to believe that saving Gary Oak meadows is more important than saving our community

[PlanB BGC @PlanB_BGC]

And Burnside Gorge is yet again the host community. Apparently if you have Gary oak trees your proposal gets declined or if you don’t have enough setbacks on a building for 150 affordable housing units you get declined. But keep putting all the housing projects here. https://t.co/1xvM4c1ISF

That was a squeaker. By a vote of 5:3, 52 more souls will be housed at the Tally Ho. Thank you #yyj Council.

[PlanB BGC @PlanB_BGC]

@AllPointsWestBC distributed housing is much more successful than warehousing all in the same neighborhood. https://t.co/0OjDAEVgZN

@AllPointsWestBC Kathy Stinson said in your interview the housing needs to go here because that is where the homeless are. Right. Because there is so much supported housing and shelters it draws the homeless and drug dealers here

[PlanB BGC @PlanB_BGC]

@AllPointsWestBC in your interview Kathy Stinson said they hired security for night times in September. Why now? The community has been raising issues for over a year about how bad it is.

[PlanB BGC @PlanB_BGC]

@AllPointsWestBC the tally ho facility and the new shelter at the super 8 will add to the problem. Not good for the community and not good for the vulnerable homeless. #tippingpoint

@AllPointsWestBC No-one overcomes their addiction and mental health issues on the street, but they certainly don’t do it living in large facilities all in close proximity struggling with the same"

[PlanB BGC @PlanB_BGC]

@AllPointsWestBC coolaod runs a shelter and 2 supported housing facilities in our neighborhood now and all 3 are problematic.

"No-one overcomes their addiction and mental health issues on the street, but they certainly don’t do it living side-by-side under one roof with hundreds of others struggling with the same"
