Spoken like a true planner.
BTW, planners suck.
Just my personal opinion.

Maybe a good look at quality of life in cities vs rural living needs a good looksee?

urban "sprawl" as is cutely coined by planners happens for a reason......and it isn't cost to live there.

When planners have everyone living in sparrow houses stacked on top of one another and everyone needs a note from whomever rules your ideal domain to wander outside the boundaries, then what?
