Cities would stop caring about new residents then (as they've done in Canada.)
They mostly cater to the existing residents that own homes and partake in municipal voting.
They'll stop creating new housing developments and put massive permitting fees on proposals for new construction.
- jpollock 4y agoNo, it doesn't stop development. New houses increase the value of the land it is sitting on, so the tax from that plot of land will go up. The entire goal should be to encourage residents to partake in municipal voting. That's everyone's responsibility as citizens.
