Honestly I have the same mindset a lot of the time lol. I feel like the ads for the project were disingenuous and went for the negative, i.e. "Springfield needs this development or else" mentality as opposed to "The growth of Galloway will benefit the city of Springfield in x, y, z ways." Their use of influential people from around the city as another bargaining chip was also weird. These tactics come off really shady and made me feel like I wasn't getting all of the truth, and like I mentioned in another comment, they neglected the people who actually live and work there, and I really dislike that longtime residents are being bulldozed for the sake of developers that won't care about Springfield in 10 years.
