Thanks for introducing a new (to me) term, i.e BANANAS. Upon searching i discovered a few others:

NIABY: Opposition to certain developments as inappropriate anywhere in the world is characterised by the acronym NIABY ("Not In Anyone's Backyard"). The building of nuclear power plants, for example, is often subject to NIABY concerns.

NAMBI: ("Not Against My Business or Industry") is used as a label for any business concern that expresses umbrage with actions or policy that threaten that business, whereby they are believed to be complaining about the principle of the action or policy only for their interests alone and not for all similar business concerns who would equally suffer from the actions or policies.

BANANA: is an acronym for "Build Absolutely Nothing Anywhere Near Anything" (or "Anyone").The term is most often used to criticize the ongoing opposition of certain advocacy groups to land development. The apparent opposition of some activists to every instance of proposed development suggests that they seek a complete absence of new growth.

NOPE: (Not On Planet Earth)To leave an uncomfortable situation, usually quickly.

LULU: Locally Unwanted/Undesirable Land Use planning.

NOTE: Not Over There Either (meaning is same NIMBY)
