It's ok you mentioning nimby ism but when it could well affect the local people on a daily basis they have a right to know more and to object if they feel the late night light and noise will affect them. Or if they don't want more traffic on the road outside their home. Many are against because they expect a fence all the way around the area and they will lose what has been their free to access at anytime green space.

As far as I can tell the trust have put as much information as they currently have available on their website, and have promised to keep the public informed when plans are more advanced (part of what you said above confirms this impression). So the trust aren't telling any half truths or making any unsubstantiated claims.
Quite why those opposed to the plans can't wait until then to discuss it points towards their opposition being self motivated rather than fact based.
