It depends on how one defines living. If one wants someone to live in a community, he or she must be able to avail of local services. There are many parts of cities that have run down and derelict buildings. We need people to live within communities where they can function and be sustained. The concept of this, as I outlined in my comments, is not to provide relief for large-scale commercial development but to help with the provision of local services.
