@RichardatCourthouse,

I do agree that this proposal has many shades of gray. It is not wholly wise or unwise. I'm concerned that it would induce extra VMT without transit. There will also be more demand for parking without transit. As we know, more parking decreases walkablity and vitality.

I also have a little concern based on my knowledge of poorly planned attempts in TOD that never got transit in Olney and at U.S. 29 and Briggs-Chaney Rd. While I know those were projects at different times that were built in a car-dependent form, there is some residual vigilance based on those unideal experiences.
