The SW Ecodistrict Plan seeks to address many problem issues, while also setting a high environmental standard. We commend NCPC for undertaking this project and for undertaking the additional studies that are summarized in The SW Ecodistrict Plan Addendum, particularly the study of building heights within the study area. The Committee raises a number of issues and questions with respect to transportation planning and building heights.
