Certain commercial development the public doesn't want.

So I have been reading a lot lately of certain projects being proposed in my area of Cherokee county GA.

I am seeing a reoccurring theme. Most all retail is welcomed with open arms.

Large multifamily projects of hundreds of units, live in weekly hotels, and most gas stations have had thousands protest against them and so the council voted to deny approving.

Most of the general public sites transients, stress to current roads, and higher crime as the reasons they do not want that kind of development there. They prefer regular retail and then housing developments in a price point that keeps away most renters and promotes home ownership. They perceive a threat  to quality of life, house values, and increased crime and devaluing a quality area.
