LOL-- More housing does not decrease the prices, especially if the housing being built is specifically luxury apartments at 1600 a month for single bedrooms.

I'll share a little story of this In 2003 my former hometown had 3 major hurricanes go through it. So many homes destroyed. The fixing crews were booked so far out it was easier for families to build a new home. Boom huge increase of housing in the area and eventually the original homes were also completed. Double the housing, right? Then they added 6 apartment complexes. All were nice the 1st year then became section 8 by year 3. Today you can get on a list to maybe be approved for a 1 bed for 2200. Increased housing units does not decrease cost.

Also in that time the river has died. Waterways poluted. A City utilities oversight meant that city water wasn't being tested for 2 years because they were overrun with all the additional accounts.

The increased number of people in Galloway means we need to support fire and police services. Don't they get their operating expenses money from taxes? Which with this developer, there would be none for almost 11 years. 11 years. 11 years. for an already hurting services.
