  Not In My Back Yard. Basically the people in the community who will reject anything that impacts them in a slightly negative way.

  For SF, this means homeowners who don’t want to see property values drop due to new construction, or who don’t want to sell to make room for new construction. Likewise for homeless shelters, train lines, etc. Those things need to go somewhere, but if everyone says “but not here,” it doesn’t get built.
