The state model does not account for the need for wastewater treatment (septic). In my personal opinion the model as applied to the entire re-zoned areas overstates what can be built as it does not account for the substantial amount of dry land required for a septic system. For example, the Mall redevelopment is contingent on continued access to and million plus dollar upgrade to the existing wastewater treatment owned by Lincoln Woods.
Accurately estimating the cost and size of wastewater treatment requires a level of engineering and specificity that is not practical. Whether or not ignoring it is a good solution to that problem is something we can all debate :-).
