Infill and mixed use to keep town walkable.

Little details matter, and it would be nice for walking, biking or using a mobility scooter to be a reasonable choice on most winter days for all ages if the city was quicker at plowing paths and sidewalks (which should be its responsibility and not property owners'). Ensuring that walking, biking and using mobility scooters are a reasonable choice all year helps a reduction in parking be accepted and reasonable and will be especially impactful for the young and old.

If we must sprawl (we shouldn't), at least keep it in the Cranbrook direction to keep as much traffic out of town as possible.

Please also consider allowing tiny homes (on wheels or not) to be parked on residential lots. This can be a way for property owners to increase personal income and rental housing supply. It also provides elderly people an option to stay in their neighbourhoods (and potentially keep their gardens they have invested years in) while supplement their pensions. This frees up larger housing for people who need it.
