Instead of worrying about overloaded systems, we should be celebrating the opportunity to make better use of the infrastructure our city has already built and paid for. That's not just good urban planning—it's good fiscal sense.

This dispels a lot of the misconceptions people have about infill development in the city. The complaints about sewage is something I hear a lot for the reason why we can't develop infill. I also wasn't aware of the population decline in the mature areas!
