My azz they are doing it to for the poor people. They are doing it mainly to increase the taxes per square foot of land.
I would rather see a reasonable raise in taxes to account for the sprawl, rather than ruin the older neighborhoods.
I am not against a certain amount of densification, e.g. along major streets, corner lots etc. However, people should know exactly where it is being allowed, and not throwing it open throughout the whole neighborhood.

I don't know about that, maybe it requires more than a quick thought but with revenue neutral property taxes are they not shifting burden only? So no net benefit, just when one property pays more, the other less. I'm not totally upon how it works, so maybe someone else can comment.
