Yes once you unblocked the planning process then you would get a lot of building since you would open up a lot of land that right now can’t be developed due to local opposition. It would also lower the barriers to entry for new developers as more would start to look outside their immediate area where they have their corrupt local government connections. The end result is everyone should win - communities get the development that want, landowners get a higher price, and the honest developers can compete with the corrupt. The only losers are the corrupt.
