What strikes me is how the concerned residents managed to keep themselves ignorant of surrounding developments. Istm that if someone were planning a major subdivision next to my house, I might think to contact the city to find out what was being planned. In the circumstances, the developer's offer of a fence seems quite reasonable.
Ctv just did a piece on this. Sounds like a clear cut case of NIMBYism to me. If they had concerns they should have gone to the public consultations to be heard, not after the permits have been granted and construction started. They even mentioned the residents are hiring lawyers to stop it.
