Promise everything in the initial design, but let the community benefits drift away as the project works its way through the approvals, and replace them with tenants that pay market-rate rent

Since getting anything done in this town apparently involves paying grift taxes to various interest groups and making a "donation" to the non-profits run by "community leaders", I can't say I shed to many tears when developers play the game of promising everyone their grift tribute and then conveniently forget about it after the opposition is defanged.

Trying to complain about Hine by saying, "we aren't getting the payoff we were promised!" isn't going to fly.
