[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People here need to realize that "inclusionary zoning" only exists because people won't accept a real tax to support affordable housing, so counties mandate the builders set aside units for poor people. It is a hidden tax on middle class renters due to lower supply. What goes unsaid is that rich homeowners are not affected by this policy. In fact, it enriches them because it reduces the supple of housing. This is why NIMBY homeowners yell about "affordable housing". They don't actually care - they just want renters to stay poor and stop development.[/quote] So you’re saying if the council repeals IZ renters will all get lower rents when they renew and everyone will get a tax break?[/quote]
