To draft an edition to existing criteria that fall in line with a city's infrastructure & Wayfarers safety criteria. If an 'X' amount of Wayfarers in a "city's" or "counties" boundary lines agree with the poll should it become acceptable to draft something like this up & submit for review?

I don't understand the question. What would be the goal of this project?
I don't understand your question.
They likely want to define the extent of private residential property. For example, allowing things on the property edge or defining that the property line is "X feet" from a sidewalk or curb. However, reviewers are not local and won't know about any localized criteria, thus the idea is completely unworkable. For example, I see nominations throughout the continental US, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and parts of Mexico.
I for some reason am able to review nominations in same city I reside. I only know that while reviewing nominations that will be outside my general area is if there is nothing to nominate in my area at the time but I am uncertain as to why this isn't the same for you and may be the same for others too so yes you make a really good point @TheFarix-PGO & @flatmatt-PGO I agree to canning that idea ❌
@tp235-ING & @flatmatt-PGO The point though is to help increase amount of POI's in areas where they are sparse & its hard to do so while remaining in line with the guidelines. Like the POI shouldn't always have to be so closely accessible, why would one have to be close enough to touch it, but close enough to view it would be an improvement even if the POI itself is on private property if permission is granted or is of historical significance.
What do you feel would easily improve amount of POI approval in questionable areas?
I that case, it's a definite "no" from me. The criteria are the same worldwide, and this is as it should be.

This statement shows that you're only thinking about one game in particular and not about any other games or Wayfarer itself.
Some games require you to be stood almost exactly on top of a wayspot to perform certain actions, whereas in Pokémon Go there's a rather generous 80 metre interaction radius (40 metres for lure spawns). Additionally, whilst I don't partake in it myself, wayspot scanning is a thing.
Therefore, the requirement of needing to be able to go directly up to a wayspot is valid.
Can you read the text on the monument from 80 meters away?
That is the answer.
Uuu I am pretty sure my answer is yes but could you put your post in more casual words?
Who is going to pay for it?
Who will manage it?
Country challenges like the recent European one would be impossible. Let alone any other country
The system barely functions with a common criteria that is ambiguous and open to all
I review an entire continent. From Christmas Island to Lord Howe. From Tasmania to Cape York. From Sydney to Perth
From villages of ten houses to cities.
Because I selected somewhere in another country as a bonus place I also get their nominations.
I get where you are coming from. Better on boarding of reviewers and nominators. Better ongoing knowledge management of both etc etc would be the way to go. Better understanding of the nuances between rural and metro.
I get it. But no
