You have a sustainable building strategy that is not effective enough. Your density proposal is too crowded and WILL add to the urban heat island. You have not mandated recycling of water, putting electricty back to the grid, the use of sustainable building materials (in fact your planning dept still prefers people to use brick rather than eco friendly materials). This seems to be paying lipservice - you need to do much much more to ensure ALL new houses will meet strict sustainability criteria.

You have completely ignored where you will get water from for the new homes.
