Neighbors said it will create a traffic nightmare.
"I would love to see the county really put some effort and really think about long term future of this area. Not just sell off 161 acres in a residential neighborhood to the highest bidder or in this case the lowest bidder," said organizer Jon Lorusso. "Really think about what we want to do in this area."
