Scona East Residents Association

The Scona East Residents Association (SERA) is a community group that has formed to oppose the application to re-zone the properties on 99th Street (between 92nd and 93rd Avenues, and around the corner on 93rd Avenue) from 4 storeys to 8 storeys.

The proposed re-zoning would entail the demolition of seven historic houses and the closure of part of the east-west lane between 92nd and 93rd Avenues – as shown in the illustration.

While SERA supports our city’s need for some increased density, its concerns over this application include slope instability, height, scale and sun shading, increased vehicle traffic, reduced pedestrian and cycle paths, parking, sewerage capacity, and destruction of the neighbourhood’s historical architecture and character.
