Screw growth!

I'm all about growth. I want new development. But don't comment on this project unless you were at that FNA meeting and saw how incredibly absurd it was. You just have no idea... The room was filled with over 200 people...all of them were a mix of lifetime residents and newcomers. We all thought it was a terrible idea.
This isn't center city where you have tall hotel towers next to single family homes. This is a family neighborhood, and outsiders can snicker all they want. We live here. We enjoy living here. We're the homeowners, and we DESERVE a say in what we have to live with.
