Your proximity to any proposed development is not a qualifier on whether or not your opinion counts. I live in downtown and have very strong feelings about development all over East Baton Rouge Parish and the entire state for that matter.

My objection to the Pinnacle project is that it is poor growth. Allowing the project because of the potential entertainment value or possible tax revenues it generates will be widely offset by the eventual shuttering of at least one of the downtown casinos. Building something that would be so much of a "regional draw" as they expect it to be, will only add undue burden on parts of the city that are completely unprepared.

I couldn't care less how it affects the neighbors, but I just believe that if the casino is built it will just create more of the typical sprawl crap that already covers most of ascension and livingston parishes.
