Agreed. When you buy a property backing onto a Transportation/Utility Corridor (TUC) you get the benefit of a green space and not being overlooked, perhaps for many years. But eventually the TUC will be used. At this time home owners should be consulted, listened to, and kept informed, but at the end of the day the use of the land was predetermined many years ago.
My beef is when land use changes, such as when a golf course is re-zoned for residential or commercial use. However even in this case residents concerns appear to be rarely taken into account by developers or the city.
