This statement stopped me cold:

"Transportation planner Michelle Swanson ... emphasized the goal is a denser, human-scale city where driving is unnecessary."

I lived in Manhattan where driving truly is unnecessary. But in Olympia, the kind of housing density and transit system that would make this possible is centuries away at best.

It really doesn't help to make such unrealistic statements.
