Yes, inadequate urban planning needs to be undermined. Municipal governments have been derelict in their duties.

I think what Woodward is implying here is that its schools have not been catching up with the amount of housing that's being built (SD35 has the most portables per capita than any other school district, though SD36 has more by raw numbers). I do think that the BC NDP would need to put more capital funding on more schools and expanding existing ones rather than implementing half-measures like adding more portables, some of which are not air conditioned.
That being said, Woodward has been incredibly obtuse on denying multiplexes next to a skytrain station, yet he is fine having two high rises next to farmland.
