[quote=Anonymous]What has the developer proposed that requires making peace with the neighbors? That is a very charged statement, particularly from someone who wants them to host a public facility for no good reason. All developers need to make peace with neighbors. That's just a fact of life. I didn't mean it to be a charged statement or even a subtle threat. It is the way every urban, suburban and rural area handles developments large and small. It is part of the process. This area recently completed a battle over the Cathedral Commons that lasted more than a decade. Just down the street, GDS proposed a relatively modest - (relative to what will happen at Fannie Mae - not relative to anything else) project and got shellacked. The reality is that there will be major opposition no matter what the developer proposes - even if its a butterfly. That's life in the big city.[/quote]
