A corner lot on my block is zoned for 8 units, but no, the developer wanted 10. So we go through the pantomime of community engagement and protests at council but it still goes through.
And of course, there's also an easy answer to that.
Raise the de jure zoning level to match the de facto zoning level, so that the de jure zoning is actually the right level for enforcement.
