I don't really see it as a problem in need of a solution (unless it's some kind of "build absolutely nothing anywhere near anything"). Neighbourhood concerns/opposition to projects tend to amount to venting (and the project gets built more or less as proposed), or something more substantive, which tends to result in negotiation and compromise (though not necessarily in better development). I suppose that local politicians too beholden to neighbourhood associations could be a "problem", but that seems a problem of representative democracy and rather beyond my pay grade.
