HRM Planning Should Be Ashamed

This article sparked this post: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/missing-middle-housing-9.7203836

In HRMs rush to claim their share of a pot of Federal Govt gold, any and all planning discipline has gone out the window. The supposed "missing middle" buzzword cannot possibly justify permitting ugliness and blockbusting such as this:

Apparently, our rules for new development are essentially limited to building within the perimeter of the lot being developed (barely) and that's about it. I would not be at all opposed to the Province intervening and replacing the entire HRM planning regime and those working in the dept. This insanity needs to be stopped.
