Damn that's sooooo much surface parking. 1.5/unit residential is so stupid. Flex/office area looks terrible, 1-story buildings and 50% of the land is surface parking, and no walkability to there either. Just why? Is land so cheap on this plot that they can afford such poor land use? Mixed use and supermarket area looks sweet though. Could easily be a fully car-free community.

It's true that plans always start huge and then they get torn down to something mediocre or even actively harmful. If you want to get involved, it would be good to make sure the good parts of this remain. Nimbys would look at this and demand killing the apartments (if not all the housing altogether) and doubling the parking.

In fact, this would benefit a ton from eliminating parking minimums. And/or legalize higher heights, so they can build parking vertically. Those are 2 big issues that are becoming way more popular everywhere nowadays. You would have a ton of precedents to argue your case.
