Problem
You work for a construction company that wants to persuade the town council to rezone Parcel 5812 from resident to commercial, so you can build a retail shopping center anchored by a grocery store. Based on your research you are going to provide 3 reasons why the town council should rezone parcel 5812 from residential to commercial.
• Residential population is growing, but the shopping options are not
• The nearest grocery store is 10 km away in a different town, and the only way to get there is a 2-lane highway, and without a local store, traffic congestion
• The retail space will trigger growth and increase the town's tax base.
Your presentation should address the above, and state what type of evidence you would use to support your research that the population is growing.
