So basically, if developers cater to existing residents, they will not be able to build anything.

I literally dont think you know what literally means.
For a variety of reasons many dwellings that are 100 years old don't have parking and cant have parking. Those residents rely on street parking and I think should have a higher priority to that public good than residents of a development done irresponsibly. Im not saying block the development, Im saying give those parking spots to existing residents as they do elsewhere in the city and see what the developer does.
Get rid of the car I'm all for it. But it isn't going to happen anytime soon in the front range when the most novel public transit investment of the last decade seems to be repackaging existing bus routes as "BRT".
