Inflation and the housing question

Every time I see a project opposed in my neighborhood or within my city, this is my the local homeowner/neighborhood association. Not by a group of renters. There's also an endless amount of public consultation for every building that needs to be built.

On the other hand, do you really expect someone with a 1 year lease to show up for a public consultation that might only affect things a few years down the road? There might even be a bias in the sense that anyone who bothers going to those meetings are boomers[1] who are retired and have nothing to do.
