| Comment | Not letting developers just build stuff for petty/shortsighted reasons is why housing costs are so insane and there's no supply in desirable areas. 600 market-rate flats in two years is much preferable to like what, 300 with a bit of social in five years, assuming that is even achievable.
Like you understand that new residents don't materialise out of thin air right? They mostly come from other parts of the city/region. And parking just makes the car problem *worse* medium-long term, in addition to decreasing density and raising costs. All of the empirical evidence is on my side, but nobody will acknowledge it, it's all just vibes. |
