Question

A military base a few miles from a medium- sized city is being decommissioned. The base is a large one, sited along a coastline, and includes some small hills, pristine woodlands and wetlands, streams, a river, and a small lake. There is a railroad spur that connects the base with the nearby city, as well as a four- lane highway. The base contains housing, schools, a hospital, shops, and recreational areas for a population of 10,000. The city's options for using, selling, or leasing the land are numerous, and many groups come forward with proposals. Members of several local environmental groups propose that nearly all of the buildings be removed and the area turned into a regional hiking and camping area, with very limited vehicle access. This will preserve the natural areas while providing recreation for the city dwellers. One issue that is raised by opponents is ________.

Answer 1

The lack of jobs and lack of transportation to jobs

Step-by-step explanation:

As it is seen, the establishment of the camping and hiking areas will dispatch buildings which were hospitals, shops and schools.

These buildings and facilities previously employed a number of workers and their removal hence, will reduce the number of available jobs.

Also, the new constructions will prove difficult in switching from one job to another.
