Crazy people will spend that amount of money without doing research.

Upstate is heading that direction

Upstate growth unreal but can’t see we are headed where this group is ( water no an issue)
Infrastructure isn’t there for some development
I agree direction needed but often it is the existing neighbors calling out for regulations ( which are needed) but often using false data to keep growth away from them

Can the electrical grid handle 110 on one side for the population and say minus 5 on the other side?

Just seems each county can say we can handle a population of 10 million but that it's.

And there has been a lot of towns who haven't changed a bit doing just fine.

Those guys that try to scare you telling you your town will become a ghost town if you don't rapid develop are lying to you to make a profit.
