It’s called Central Place Theory, by Walter Christaller. For the record, in WW2 Christaller worked for Himmler and helped plan occupied Poland and Czechoslovakia.
Holyday explains his opposition to expanded retail is linked to a 1933 theory called "Neighbourhood Place Theory." He holds up some kind of diagram? Sure, okay.

If you're ever upset about the state of US land use policy, just spend 30 seconds reading anything about the UK. Automated NIMBYism!

A 2021 City of Ottawa study showed that a new unit in the denser core would net the City $606 in annual tax revenue, while a new unit in low density greenfields would cost the city $465 annually.
This is so frustrating. People living downtown are much higher density, yet we are being punished with higher property taxes and subsidizing developers and suburbs. @_MarkSutcliffe

My neighbours in my building are organizing a unit list for kids to go around and get candy tonight (as we do every year). Condos are communities, just as much as any neighbourhood.

I've been on vacation and just came back to news that the Doug Ford gov't is amalgamating 36 conservation authorities into 7. This is a HUGE change and just the latest in a looooooong tense relationship b/w this government and the unique agencies. https://t.co/2NHECiHpfH

Time and again, the Ford government has tried to weaken the role of conservation authorities. The changes are coming soon
