Why do we object to planning for worthwhile and beneficial amenities?

from The Hard Shoulder

Residents in the Dublin 6 area have objected to a proposed tennis dome at the Fitzwilliam Lawn Tennis Club, describing it as a “colossal glowing orb” saying it will lower the value of their homes.   Architect and former president of the royal institute of Ireland and chair of the Dublin democratic planning alliance Robin Mandal joined Shane and Ciara to discuss if this is nimbyism.
