I learned from my big brother, a phd statitician, that numbers can be manipulated to "prove" almost anything you want. So, I am slow to believe everything I read or hear.
My own feeling is that the McCloud area is special and needs to be safeguarded from damaging development. Prudent development should be given fair consideration, and approval of anything near the scope of Nestle's proposal must allow for reversal should it later be found to be damaging ( that would be prudent, eh? ).
Disclaimer: I have friends who reside and run a business in McCloud who feel it would benefit the town. Oh, and I work for a developer . . . just not doing development work.
