There is a great bill before the General Assembly that will help developments use land better.
High density is the key to less sprawl, more open space and greater mass transit feasibility.
I urge anyone who supports managed growth to support this bill. Clustering is the opposite of minimum lot size planning. This concept is probably somewhat effective at controlling growth, but it encourages sprawl by forcing growth to spread out. The high density model allows the same amount of growth to occur while using much less land, requires less dependability on cars and supports mass transit. Clustered development is an important component of smart growth.
