If the City were to deny the development due to local opposition and claims that the local community wanted the land turned into a local park, the locals are the ones that should be purchasing the land from the developers as other taxpayers shouldn't be paying so these locals could have another park. However, my opinion would change if the City were to identify these lands as a prime opportunity for a regional park.
