It is not a matter of our "believing" there is something "wrong", as you put it, going on here. It is a demonstrable fact.

Look for example at the campaign contributions by the Developer and related people and businesses to Burgess's campaign in 2012, when he faced opposition. Do a little digging, on your own, into the relationships between the Developer and Commissioners. Some of this stuff can be discovered from public records. What, if if anything, cannot be discovered from public records?

BTW, I don't begrudge the Morses making a lot of money. They just shouldn't do it at taxpayer expense.
These posts are beyond opinion, naming names is a political statement. I Thought this was not allowed??
