Similarly, you could imagine developers compensating nearby residents to the extent that they are harmed by living near an ugly building and/or an irksome construction site.
If developers pay of those people who are politically influential enough to block the construction that transaction will likely be corruption in many cases. Half a century ago that worked well to get things build and it still works in China today. I would expect that various anti-corruption rules make it hard to make such deals today.
