That's "fine*," if you're willing (and able) to pay the full cost of the infrastructure to maintain it and the real fair market value of the land. But the entitled NIMBY welfare queens who whine about such things invariably aren't capable, let alone willing, which is why they're demanding the government subsidize their privilege in the first place.
