IGTIGT Phase I Summary Statements - Draft 2/18/11

Summary Number: 12
 
Increase residential density in a controlled and sensitive manner
 
 "More density and walkability in certain places near retail and other neighborhood services would connect me to my neighborhood and reduce the amount of time I spend in the car."
 "More mixed-use, mixed-income, high-density, housing with public transportation"
 "Integrate high density but don't lose community or quality of life for people who already live there."
 "The low-density development that has dominated over the past 40-60 years diminishes quality of life now and particularly in the future (fossil fuel use, environmental impacts, health impacts)."
 "Increase central Tucson density/disempower obstructive neighborhood associations."
 "I don't like being forced to share walls, live close to people. I like my privacy and the feeling of open spaces."
 "Additional population density downtown would provide more business for the downtown core."
 "Condos above stores is a great idea."
 "Old neighborhoods with low density & the potential for a high quality of life."
 "Retain lifestyle � promote economic growth � consider density"
