Incentivizing high density development via tax policy and removing needless regulations are not mutually exclusive.
- nickff 10y agoI agree that they are not mutually exclusive, but would generally prefer a simpler policy to a more complicated one. In addition, governments are prone to create increasingly complex rules which they use to help certain preferred groups (such as neighborhoods or campaign contributors). Reducing the barriers to high density development would encourage densification without increasing corruption; if this is insufficient, more active measures could be implemented soon.
