In terms of locals. Traffic and parking has and always will be a problem. Put in a permit zone and have it patrolled on match day.
As for any other points I don't buy it. If I bought a house near Hyde United and they got a gazzilionaire owner and increased attendances and built up the ground, that's tough on me for moving near the ground. Edgeley Park has been there far longer than residents so tough. That does not mean that where possible anything that can be done to help any issues should not be done where physically and economically possible.
If the council and locals prevent the upgrading to the stadium they will shoot themselves in the foot. Stott and Vita will not be able to make it viable, County won't progress and the economic benefits to the area will be lost.
