It's not accurate to say "[m]ore density in the area." This is more sprawl.

Not sure I completely agree,how will this not add more density to the area? Given that currently it is mostly single family detached homes (with some townhouses mixed in) adding mid-rise and high-rise apartments into the area will add a lot more density compared to the 30 houses the same space may occupy?
We might be talking a few hundred jobs, certainly not thousands I agree but it is still something. And overall is still a step in a better direction compared to just building 50 more houses in that area as they could easily do instead.
