The minutes say this:

The Advisory Planning Commission advised it does not support the rezoning application. The Commission noted it fully supports the concept of densification, however, given the scale of the proposed development; further clarity is needed regarding the transportation, recreational/park and school/education infrastructure requirements to accommodate the rezoning application.
It is not a rejection, the planning commission is saying that the plan as of right now is insufficient. It is important to note that they did not mention that there was too much density, just that they needed more clarification on how the development was going to integrate with the city.

Seems like good news to me really.
