Opposition is gathering against the Overbrook Town Center in Milton.
The complex would be located on 114 acres of farmland across from the intersection of Route 1 and Cave Neck Road.
But WBOC reports a group known as the Overbrook Town Center Coalition has sent out hundreds of letters opposing the project.
It says that the new shopping center would lead to traffic problems as well as producing environmental concerns among other issues.
The group also questions the need for another major shopping center with the Tanger Outlets just five miles to the south on Route 1.
