I wouldn't be able to guess what "mixed development" means. You could say instead that there are both pros and cons to the development.

No, you can't.

I would call it a phenomenon which has its pros and cons, or positive and negative effects.

A mixed development usually refers to a physical building project on a piece of land, which comprises, say, a mix of buildings - apartments, hotels and and shopping complexes.
