Description

New home developments are often opposed by people who say "Not In My Backyard" — and Calgarians are sometimes labelled as NIMBY when they want to avoid more dense housing near their existing properties. We hear from a Calgarian frustrated by a new project he thinks doesn't match his neighbourhood, and a developer who talks about how to avoid residents saying "no" to anything near their backyards.
