Higher Density for Green Developments in Waukesha?

In this article by Sean Ryan, we learn that the City of Waukesha is considering allowing higher density and other incentives for green developments. In the Daily Reporter summary we see a proposal to streamline the process, reduce requirements, etc.


Honestly, I think their projects being first on the agendas for the public meetings & hearings would probably have developers lining up to be involved!


Sustainable development is much needed in many communities, but I wonder why this can't include minimum accessibility such as Visitability? It's not hard to have one no-step entrance, a path of travel to the home & in the interior of the main floor, and a usable bathroom.
