How will making our development more like thier's provide us development that is different from their's?

I'm referring to allowing smaller entities a chance to impact the cityscape and have a piece of the pie instead of the same 6 connected campaign contributors, which has largely become the Chicago story.
With narrow lots, zoning, and perhaps some general rules against strip malls and drive thrus it would be very easy to see a nice, fine grained neighborhood with even some decent density get built here given the proper zoning, while giving a lot of people a shot at owning prime real estate. Or you can just give it all to Antunovich who will build your dream town center
