One resident said, "Where we live now,the <br /> houses aren't far from each other, but we have our own space." <br /> ■ Not hearing the noise from neighbors if the houses are not connected. <br /> ■ Having adequate space for children. <br /> Prepared by Office for Housing and Community Staff <br /> May 2018 <br />
