minus-squareStern@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·9 months ago I think the problem with it is tax burden is likely not the only reason for a lack of development. I’d guess parking requirements and zoning laws (to a lesser extent.) fuck things up more then just taxes. Can’t build that multi story building without another chunk of land for a multi story parking structure next door.
