Maybe when developers are looking to build beyond zoning, cities allow it on condition of final approval of design. Maybe host an architecture and development night and just continuosly show pictures of well designed buildings being built around Canada to get the point accross that yes we want development and yes we want density, but we would also like a bit time put into the design. There must be multiple ways that other city's have encouraged higher design practices. Look at what they are building in kamloops and kelowna right now. Maybe there are just better architecture firms out west/ east. I don't know. Obviously with quantity there has to be a couple quality building built.
