Addicted to high density

Our city council voted again for more high density last night. Agenda item 4.2 allows for six , 3 bedroom condos to be built with 6 off street parking spaces. That is 18 people for 6 spaces. With one person per bedroom. The number required is 1.5 per unit. I do not believe the 1.5 number was just dreamed up. It is the number all builders must abide by.
The condos will have ZERO alley off set. 5 feet minimum is required for all residential buildings.
Required. Front off set is 15 feet. This sweetheart deal has 6 feet.  The building is not to the code of the hoi polloi and commoners. It is a unanimous vote when the council has your back. Change is coming at city hall.
