When asked if the boundaries of the proposed area are correct, answering "no" gives you a text box for providing additional areas to include -- they don't even consider that they might've been overly inclusive already (e.g. including a parking lot with zero heritage value)

The survey asks for why protection is warranted -- but when thinking about future change, it implicitly regards change as negative, and prompts residents to think about whether they'd allow change at all. This reeks of status quo bias.

You can actually just close a street to car traffic. It is in fact that simple, despite the pearl-clutching of North American traffic engineers.

Fascinating results happening in this survey regarding Kitchener's official plan revision.
"Best" is perhaps subjective, but I gotta give props to those who wrote a correct answer under "other"... seems rude to not provide the most correct answers as options though.
