Change it!
Seriously.
Email the applicant, and Planning and say something like " I could support this if it brought the best of old Oakville (Lakeshore) but with massive density. But it needs to have warmth and colour and some sense of charm and vibrancy at street level.
Then provide an example. Developers love templates.
Maybe Allies and Morrison's work at 2150 Lakeshore, or the proposed work up at the Canada Goose Factory site (give them links in the email) "This is supportable density"
Of course, use your own words, form letters go to the bottom of the pile; and choose whatever examples you like. But the applicant will be looking for a path to money; and planning for a path to peace, or at least to attract some support.
Give'em some help.
