Holden is a ruralish suburb that's not a particularly easy commute to the nearest commuter rail station. There's no way to build "transit oriented housing" there, no one living in Holden is walking or biking to any public transportation.

Yeah it has almost 20K people and it borders a town (Worcester) that has commuter rail, but it's still ridiculous. The zoning changes should only apply within a mile of transit, which would exclude Holden and most of the other further-off towns.
