How is Change Manage, Who Manages it, and Should “The People” Have a Say?

Based on the films “My Brooklyn” and “Citizen Jane: Battle for the City” it shows that there is no stopping the change of the city, whether it’s good or bad change. There must be a change in order for a city to be progressive. There are many ways to go about making a difference to have a successful outcome, but the City of New York did these changes the wrong way. The city is only concerned about the profit they would make when drawing up plans. They only listen to what the planners have to say and how much money would they gain. It seems as the people of the city doesn’t have a say on what should change. Everything comes as a total surprise to them when they are abruptly pushed out of their neighborhood with the higher rent charges or the owners be brought out by the city. The people of the city should have a say in these changes; their opinion should matter.
