Mandate funding of public transportation at a level that makes it easier to use than a car.
Make roads (all roads that are already built) available for that transit, any existing road can become a trolley line or train.
Set the footprint of the county where it is, already there is too much sprawl so no more expansion allowed, build where there are buildings only, all green space preserved, fund to buy back land for parks when density increases, and once “greened”, no longer available to build on.

That last item is, combined with all the other things like it, the source of the housing crisis in this country.
Where I am we need density to increase in the populated areas, not to pave out the rest of the county, The plants and animals need space too.
