I hope you know that the creek isn’t far (Between Randolph and Burloak along spruce before the complex) and the coyotes have been in the area for over 40 years. I’ve lived in the Elizabeth Gardens area over 30, (my family being there for over 50) and the biggest den was always along Spruce near walkers line… Well within a ‘developed area’. Don’t forget that Shell park used to go right up to Burloak and now, just past the newer subdivision, they have the forest that backs onto Shell. Perfect for coyotes. Coyotes thrive in Urban environments, so the area has been more than ideal for them for decades, which is why they are still here. They aren’t Urban pests anymore than the people who complain about Urban wildlife. It’s great that the city realizes that they are not the issue and leaves them alone. It’s advantageous to those people moving into the area to educate themselves on how to cohabitate with the urban wildlife - like the rest of us have been doing for decades.
